John Kotter: “Accelerate!”
• 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”

The Network Secrets of Great Change Agents
Julie Battilana &Tiziana Casciaro
As a change agent, my centrality in the informal network is more important
than my position in the formal hierarchy
People who are highly connected have twice as much power to
influence change as people with positional power

What is a rebel?
Source : @PeterVan http://t.co/6CQtA4wUv1
•The principal champion of a change initiative, cause or action
•Rebels don’t wait for permission to lead, innovate, strategise
•They are responsible; they do what is right•They name things that others don’t see yet
•They point to new horizons•Without rebels, the storyline never changes

We need boatrockers!
• Rock the boat but manage to stay in it
• Walk the fine line between difference and fit, inside and outside
• Able to challenge the status quo when we see that there could be a better way
• Conform AND rebel• Capable of working with others
to create success NOT a destructive troublemaker

Two kinds of people at work
• Feel connected to a higher purpose
• Controlled & coordinated through shared goals & values
• Collaborate• Embrace change• Work to who they are
The contributors The compliant
• Feel disconnected from purpose
• Controlled & coordinated through performance and targets, policies and procedures
• Hold back, don’t take risks• Uncomfortable with change• Work to job boundaries

The contributors The compliant
• Feel disconnected from purpose
• Controlled & coordinated through performance management & standardised procedures
• Hold back• Resist change• Work to a role specification
Gallup global research:• Only 13% of the workforce are
engaged (contributors)• Contributors create six times the
value to an organisation compared to the compliant

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

What is the issue here?“permission” ?
(externally generated)or
Self efficacy ? (internally generated)@HelenBevan #RCN15
Building self-efficacy: some tactics1. Create change one small step at a time2. Reframe your thinking:
• failed attempts are learning opportunities• uncertainty becomes curiousity
3. Make change routine rather than an exceptional activity4. Get social support5. Learn from the best
