Achieving Lasting Change
Change requires constant reinforcement and support in order to be sustained and fully embedded. Learn how to assess the progress of your transformation, analyze where you are (and how much further you still need to go), and evaluate your systems and processes to ensure they reinforce – and do not detract from – the transformed organization. Leverage the power of storytelling and case studies to institute your change.
About This Course
Too often, people give up before a change has truly taken hold. This frequently happens for two very different reasons: either people claim victory too early or they lose momentum as energy wanes. Without continued efforts to sustain acceleration and institute change, transformations risk slipping backward… and sometimes die altogether.
In this course, you will learn how to manage the ebb and flow of Urgency over time; how to mitigate the risks of implementing sustainable change; and how to evaluate both management-driven systems and leadership-driven ways of working to ensure your change sticks.
Achieving Lasting Change was designed by the most seasoned Kotter experts. As part of the experience, you’ll gain access to our master consultants, our rich library of research and our deep experience through the application of client stories and a full case study experience.
With the Science of Change and real-life stories as reference, you’ll immediately practice applying what you’ve learned to your specific context.

One of the biggest challenges to any change is getting it to stick. Entrenched cultural behaviors and organizational systems can all-too-easily cause us to fall back into old ways of working. In this module, you will learn why adaptable cultures are more likely to succeed and how to identify attributes of agility within your organization. You will then learn how to assess your management systems and processes to ensure the new ways of working are positively reinforced.
