Given the necessity of change and the rewards of a successful change management program, many prescriptions have emerged. Some practitioners believe in carving the change program into small pieces and then celebrating every small success. Others believe in constant communication of the benefits, frequently bringing in current executives, former leaders, respected line managers and workers, and so forth to preach the new gospel. Others focus on the rewards for meeting stretch goals and incentives more generally. Still others focus on cultivating opinion leaders and disabling change resistors. All of these tactics improve the odds, but none reverses them. They do not get to the core of change.
