The Classic Change Commitment Curve, Daryl Conner's 8 Stages | Change Thinking

The Classic Change Commitment Curve, Daryl Conner's 8 Stages | Change Thinking | Change Communication & Mission-Driven Marketing | Scoop.it
From changethinking.net - December 12, 2011 12:28 AM

Many imitators, one original (from the 80's.)


Daryl Conner's Change Commitment Curve has been copied in many places.  This post clarifies the orgins of this classic, and often copied, with a word tweak or two, model.


Another rendition of it is listed in this recent blog post focused on managing resistance via Daryl Conner's 1993 book:  Managing at the Speed of Change.


Daryl's research from long ago spotted consistent patterns.  His model highlights a fairly predictable path organization members must travel when managing their own anxiety around change.


This path typically moves along the timeline:

  • Uniformed Optimism (blissful ignorance)
  • Informed Pessimism (informed anguish)
  • Checking out
  • Overt (public)
  • Covert (private)
  • Hopeful Realism (coming to terms)
  • Informed Optimism (realistic support)
  • Completion

Pat Heffernan's insight:

Though this Change Commitment Curve was developed for internal organizational change, it mirrors classic social and behavioral #change stages -- Same goal, common stages, common barriers.

Forget Climate Change — There is work to be done

Forget Climate Change — There is work to be done | Change Communication & Mission-Driven Marketing | Scoop.it
From www.marketing-partners.com - April 23, 2017 7:24 PM
When you believe in a cause, it becomes your baby, and it's hard to give up its name. Here’s why I stopped saying climate change, and what to do instead.
Pat Heffernan's insight:

The #MarchForScience on Earth Day was a reminder that words change meaning (and gather baggage). It has been a long time since so many people were motivated to act together -- and it wasn't just to "save the environment."

5 Curation Habits That Can Change Your Content Marketing

5 Curation Habits That Can Change Your Content Marketing | Change Communication & Mission-Driven Marketing | Scoop.it
From www.linkedin.com - February 18, 2015 12:35 AM
I am inspired by curators—and it is a relevant idea for marketing. The business world has been increasingly turning towards curation as a way to add meaning to marketing. I often describe it as the forgotten side of content marketing. Amidst all the discussion about creating great content – who will take on the valuable role of just helping us to find the great content that already exists on the web or otherwise?

How great marketers tell stories

How great marketers tell stories | Change Communication & Mission-Driven Marketing | Scoop.it
From postcards.blogs.fortune.cnn.com - April 19, 2014 8:45 AM

"Former P&G marketing chief Jim Stengel says that the best companies tell two types of stories to build strong and enduring brands."

 

"The Brand Ideal, or Purpose, of Louisville Slugger is "to make players great." That statement could sound like puffery, except that the stories surrounding the brand make it plain and true. This is the case for most Ideal-driven businesses. Stories make the Ideal wheel spin.

 

Much has been written about the importance of storytelling in marketing and management, but nowhere do tales have a taller order than inside the walls of Ideal-driven companies. They bring definition to the Ideal. They authenticate it and animate it. They inspire and direct its activation.  They reaffirm the course and perpetuate the narrative."

Pat Heffernan's insight:

When positive social change is the purpose, good storytelling is just as effective (and essential).
