Change Theory

Identify either a real change that occurred in your work setting, or you can create a change that you would like to see happen. Examples could be a change to self-scheduling, implementing a new practice or procedure, implementing bedside shift report, increasing hours of operation at a health clinic so staff will have to work weekends, etc. Using the Lewin’s Change Theory,

Identify the change that is to occur providing background as to why the change is necessary
Identify a change theory that you would select as a leader to implement the change
Discuss the steps in the change theory and explain in detail how you would operationalize each step as you work through your specific change (for example, if one of the steps is “communicate the change vision” how would you do this specifically? Staff meetings, posters, etc?)
Discuss effective communication and team-building strategies you would employ to ensure success and sustainability in your change
