Is your organisational change initiative wobbling? Are your teams confused, anxious, or actively pushing back?

In this episode, Tracy and Scott break down the powerful Lippitt-Knoster Model for Managing Complex Change.

This six-element framework is a simple, durable diagnostic tool for sustaining any transformation, from company-wide shifts to individual projects.

You Will Learn:

  • The Six Elements: Understand the critical roles of Vision, Consensus, Skills, Incentives, Resources, and an Action Plan.

  • The Change Equation: Discover why a missing element doesn't just slow progress, it causes predictable, destructive negative behaviours (confusion, anxiety, rebellion, etc.).

  • Diagnose & Fix: Use the model to immediately diagnose why past changes have failed and how to proactively design your next initiative for success.

  • Why Vision Fails: Get clear on how to translate your 'flag on the hill' into specific, relevant roles for every team member to eliminate Confusion.

  • Beyond Agreement: Learn the difference between simple compliance and genuine Consensus to prevent Rebellion and active sabotage.

Stop fighting symptoms and start building lasting change using this proven framework.
