  9. John Kotter, the most influential thought leader globally, recognises new approaches are needed FROM

  10. John Kotter: “Accelerate!” TO • We won’t create big change through hierarchy on its own • We need hierarchy AND network • Many change agents, not just a few, with many acts of leadership • At least 50% buy-in required • Changing our mindset • From “have to” to “want to”

  22. Four things we know about successful boat rockers CHANGE BEGINS WITH • able to join forces with others to create action • able to achieve small wins which create a sense of hope, possibility and confidence • More likely to view obstacles as challenges to overcome • strong sense of “self-efficacy” • belief that I am personally able to create the change me Source: adapted from Debra E Meyerson

  23. Self-efficacy “If you think you can or think you can't, you are right.” Henry Ford “The ability to act is tied to a belief that it is possible to do so” Albert Bandura There is a positive, significant relationship between the self-efficacy beliefs of a change agent and her/his ability to facilitate change and get good outcomes Source of image:www.h3daily.com

  26. What’s the difference between self efficacy and self esteem, self belief, self-confidence?
