Welcome to Introduction to Change Models. There is often great confusion around the many Change Models, but this course lays out a classification scheme based on purpose and helps the change leader know which model works best at various points in the change project. We will also dive into how change can be classified since different types of change demand different approaches. But first, what do you know about organizational change and how did you learn it? Probably from an unpleasant experience of a change initiative being poorly defined and implemented even worse. However, it does not have to be this way and knowledge gained in this course will put you that much further ahead of those who fail at change management. Upon completion of this course, you will understand the basic change model classifications and some of the models that are available for each classification.
