What is the first feeling that comes to mind when I mention the word change?

It may trigger anxiety and memories of badly handled initiatives that left people disappointed, unhappy and frustrated.

But it doesn't have to be this way.

There are a few principles and models that underpin any successful change journey.

I'm going to tell you the story of NASA to show you how these principles and models work in practice.

Imagine it's 2003 and you're working at NASA.

Earlier that year, space shuttle Columbia crashed,

killing all seven crew members.

The Columbia Accident Investigation Board,

which was investigating the accident,

just delivered a damning verdict.

They said that NASA was not a learning organization because it had failed to learn from past mistakes,

which caused the accident.

The challenge was clear.

NASA had to transform from an organization that repeated its mistakes to one that learned from them,

prioritized safety and continuously improved its practices.

NASA had to change.

And believe me, everyone at NASA was on board to make that happen.

Over time, NASA transformed from an organization where errors were repeated and safety was compromised into one that embraced continuous improvement,

adopted a safety-first culture and truly embodied the essence of a learning organization.

NASA did not simply change,

it became a resilient organization that constantly adapted, learned and evolved.

This is a great story of change management, Tom Wright.

My name is Erich van Volpen and in this HR Deep Dive you'll learn all about change management.

What it is, why change often fails,

you'll learn about the psychology of change,

the difference between planned and unplanned change,

and you'll learn about three change management models

that will help you be more successful in understanding change and in implementing change initiatives in your organization.

But before we get started,

remember to smash that like button,

Let's dive in.

Change management is like a roadmap that helps a business adapt to new situations.

Whether it's changing how people need to work,

the technology that people work with,

or even the deeply held beliefs and behaviors in the organization.

For NASA, it was a shift from a know-it-all organization to a learn-it-all organization.

That change was not only about values,

but also about processes and technologies,

because in a learn-it-all organization,

there will be a lot of experimentation,

sharing of new learnings, continuous feedback,

more collaboration between departments, and so on.

That's why we call change management a systemic approach.

It impacts the entire system of the organization,

and successful change is about aligning the right levers across the organization to work together towards a new future state.

This is what is referred to as transformation.

Especially today, a lot of organizations are in the midst of transformation,

Whether this is due to new technologies such as AI,

expanding into new markets, growing the business digitally,

or launching a new product,

all these initiatives require the organization to be able to change.

In fact, the easier it is for organizations to change,

the better they will be able to serve the ever-changing needs of their customers.

Successful change management is therefore key in being successful and sustainable as an organization.

Change is not easy.

Did you know that about 70% of change projects fail?

On top of that, 38% of change projects are over budget and 55% are not delivered on time.

This happens because change is hard and often misunderstood.

There's a thousand reasons why people struggle to change.

We are creatures of habit and building new habits takes time and conscious effort.

Change requires constant communication and feedback mechanisms to check if people really understand the message.

And you need to give a very good reason to change in the first place.

Otherwise, it simply won't happen.

Let's take a look at the psychology of change to better

understand how individual people change before we look at models of organizational change.

Change is often met with resistance,

not because people are inherently averse to change,

but because it often triggers deeply rooted fears and insecurities.

People are hardwired to seek safety and stability.

People tend to focus on what they might lose rather than on what they will gain.

This is a strong human tendency known as loss aversion.

And it is why people like to stick with what's familiar,

even when change could actually improve their situation.

People also want to avoid risk.

The fact is that the uncertainty of change feels risky,

making change even more difficult.

A useful model to understand the psychology of change is the Kubler-Ross change curve.

Change is divided into different stages,

starting with denial, followed by frustration and depression,

where change is met with anger and fear,

before people accept the change and start to experiment with the change.

As they get more comfortable with the change,

they commit to it and integrate it into their day-to-day lives.

People need to go through all four phases when undergoing change

and will react differently depending on the phase that they are currently in.

This model also helps you understand how to manage change from an organizational perspective.

For each phase, people have different needs.

When in denial, you want to communicate and inform.

When people start to resist the change,

you want to watch, listen and support.

Once folks start to accept change and explore the new state,

you need to give them time to explore

and test before celebrating their success as they move on to the new normal and integrate the change into their day-to-day activities.

By understanding the change curve we better understand the psychology of change and we can better predict and address resistance to change.

Individual responses to change vary and are influenced by personality,

past experiences, perceived impact and available support.

So managing change means understanding these factors and creating an environment that involves people into the process by addressing their fears,

100

providing support and communicating the benefits of change.

101

This people-focused approach will increase the odds of successful transformation.

102

Let's take a look at two more change management models and see what we can learn from them about managing change.

103

Perhaps the best known change model is the Kurt Lewin model.

104

Lewin's model has three stages, unfreeze, change and refreeze.

105

Just like ice requires energy to unfreeze and then refreeze,

106

Lewin's model assumes that change requires a force to disrupt the status quo.

107

The unfreeze stage involves challenging and overcoming existing mindsets and attitudes.

108

It's all about preparing the organization or the individual for the upcoming change.

109

The change stage is where the actual transformation happens.

110

New behaviors, practices and processes are introduced and adopted.

111

The final refree stage is all about solidifying the new changes and ensuring they become the new norm.

112

This stage is called institutionalization and is crucial for success and to prevent falling back into the old ways.

113

Lewin's model highlights that change isn't a quick fix, but a systematic process.

114

However, the drawback of the model is that it simplifies a very complex process.

115

It's practically impossible to fit our multi-year NASA change process into this simple model.

116

And this model does not take into account that things do not always go according to plan either.

117

Before we go to the second change management model,

118

I have a favor to ask you.

119

83% of the people watching our videos have not yet subscribed to our channel.

120

If you're still watching, you're interested in organizational development and change management.

121

So do me a favor and subscribe to our channel.

122

Kotter's 8-step change model is more complex than Lewin's model.

123

Kotter's model is used by many organizations around the world and for most HR professionals,

124

this is the first change model that you'll learn about.

125

Understanding the model will help you implement change in your organization or even in your own personal life.

126

Kotter proposed that for any change to happen,

127

we first need to establish a sense of urgency,

128

which is needed to get people moving.

129

This is called the burning platform for change.

130

In our NASA case study, this was very clear.

131

There was a horrible accident that was caused by a lack of learning in the organization organization.

132

Next, you build a large coalition to support the change.

133

People often don't like changing their routines,

134

so you need supporters to push change through.

135

Next, you'll develop a long-term vision for change,

136

communicate the vision, and remove any obstacles in the way of change.

137

Part of the approach is planning for short-term wins.

138

These short-term wins will lift people's spirits up and help change stick by reinforcing the right behaviors.

139

Finally, and just like in Lewin's model,

140

change needs to be embedded into the organization,

141

and this is often where recognition and reward plays a key role.

142

Kotter's model is a whole lot more complex,

143

so it better represents the complexity of change.

144

However, there's a problem with Kotter's model as well.

145

And this is what I never learned in university when I first learned about this model.

146

Kotter assumed that the world is ordered and that there's always a clear cause and effect relationship between things.

147

That's why he proposes that you develop a vision for change and then spend years executing that vision.

148

That's why Kotter works well for incremental planned change.

149

It won't work as well for unplanned change.

150

For example, imagine you work in a multinational organization dealing with an unexpected cybersecurity breach.

151

Would you go for Kotter's eight-step process?

152

You probably wouldn't because it is slow and methodical,

153

while the situation calls for urgent action and no delays.

154

Kotter's model doesn't work when the crisis requires immediate action and swift decision-making.

155

That brings us to the final topic,

156

which is planned versus unplanned change.

157

Unplanned change happens unexpectedly.

158

Immediately after the Challenger space shuttle crash,

159

NASA had to respond to unplanned change.

160

This involved mobilizing emergency response,

161

securing the debris of the shuttle,

162

and grounding any remaining space shuttles.

163

After that initial unplanned response was over,

164

NASA moved on to planned change.

165

Planned change is initiated by the organization.

166

In NASA's case, they had to become a learning organization,

167

and this journey took years to complete and involves many different planned steps and stages.

168

It required a careful examination of existing procedures,

169

retraining of staff, and a cultural shift to watch encouraging curiosity,

170

openness, and knowledge sharing.

171

Importantly, it also involved significant leadership commitments to see this change through.

172

This level of change does not happen overnight.

173

It demands persistence and resilience from every employee.

174

Even though this video focuses mostly on planned change,

175

The same principles underpin unplanned change.

176

You need a response, a systemic approach towards the future,

177

and leaders that create an urgency for change to occur.

178

So there you have it.

179

You now understand organizational change better using three change management models.

180

Change is complex and requires experience,

181

careful planning, and skillful execution.

182

That's why so many change initiatives fail.

183

Our NASA case study is an example of effective change management.

184

From the ashes of tragedy,

185

NASA was able to transform itself into a learning organization,

186

modeled on continuous improvement and the prioritization of safety.

187

This would not have been possible without implementing the fundamental principles of change management.

188

In this video, you've learned that change is complex,

189

but that there are clear best practices when it comes to managing change.

190

For planned change, you can apply Lewin's and Kotter's models.

191

And for unplanned change, you can apply some of the same principles,

192

even though your starting point to contain the crisis will be slightly different.

193

You also learn that people may resist change and that in order to get them to change,

194

you need to communicate, listen,

195

support, give them time and celebrate wins.

196

That's where you come in.

197

Whether you are a leader,

198

manager, or HR professional, your role is to guide,

199

support, and inspire your team during periods of change.

200

These models provide a roadmap,

201

but the journey itself is always unique,

202

requiring a personal touch and an openness to learning and adapting along the way.
