To be effective leaders of change & improvement, we can’t take a "one-size fits all" approach. The change methods need to fit the goal/problem, not the other way around.
@Digitaltonto identifies 3 types of change problem & offers links to methods to support each:
1) Strategic shift: where senior leaders make a decision & effective communication & coordination is needed so everybody understands the new context & can play their role.
2) Individual behavioural shift: where many people are needed to change their own behaviours, requiring a big investment in building trusting relationships & psychological safety across teams.
3) Collective action: where shifts are needed in individual & collective behaviour on a large scale. This is more like a social movement, where momentum & critical mass are built by empowering early adopters and helping them to build connections with others.
