TASK
One of the most fascinating components of the change management process is the change agent. The change agent, who can be a leader, manager, employee, consultant, or customer, is a person who is often at the center of the change management process and performs several critical functions in the overall process. Are you a change agent?
- Discuss your role as a change agent in your current organization, including your traits and characteristics. If you are not a change agent, discuss what type of change agent would benefit your organization.
- Share how you influenced the generation, direction, success, or failure of a change initiative.
- Finally, discuss challenges you have as a change agent (e.g., not agreeing with the change, management not truthfully sharing the repercussions of the change, etc.).
