John Kotter, a former HBS professor, pre- References
sented his change management model first in
a Harvard Business Review article, in 1994,
and then in his groundbreaking book Leading
Change. Since then, he elaborated on that
concept, publishing books on practical cases
and tools, and also a fable on change.
What is being done when in this kind of process?
Two practical examples
• Create an array of larger Task Forces to
change organizational structure,

Consultant William Bridges published his landmark book Managing
Transitions back in 1991. His concept is based upon the observation
that in order to change as a person or start something new, you have to
go first through a stage of “Ending” or “unloading your baggage”,
followed by a path through the so-called “Neutral Zone”.

By combining one concept with the other, a completely new kind of change initiative
framework emerges: One in which the two different dimensions of profound change –
organizational and personal – are intertwined and inseparable. The double helix framework
allows for a far richer and more “realistic” perception of profound change processes.
Transformation is “systemic“ by nature and thus different from
“project management“. It can be led and guided, however...
