About our Kotter change model slides
What the slide does, how to use it, your brand, and a file you can edit anywhere.
Built to show where the organization is in the change
Harvard professor John Kotter set out his eight steps for leading change in his book Leading Change, after studying why so many change efforts fail. The steps run in order, from building urgency and a guiding team to winning early and anchoring the change in culture. A Kotter’s 8 step change model template puts the sequence on one slide, so everyone sees where the organization is in the process.
Why the sequence matters
Kotter’s research found that change efforts fail most often when steps are skipped, especially the early ones. Showing all eight in order makes that visible. So when leaders want to jump straight to rollout, the slide shows what’s missing underneath it.
Brand the whole presentation in one click
Add your logo, colors, fonts, and background once. It applies to the whole presentation and the entire slide library at the same time. Change model slides go to leadership teams and all-hands meetings, where consistency builds trust in the message, so once branded, they match the rest of your change communications.
Export to PowerPoint, Google Slides, or Keynote
You get a real file, not a locked link. Export it and keep editing in the tool you already use. All eight steps and their details stay editable, so you can track progress as the change moves forward.
