For this week’s assignment, you will put on your CEO hat and describe a change that you want to implement in your company. In addition to this week’s required resources, locate a minimum of two professional or scholarly resources to support your work.

Prepare a PowerPoint presentation to address your senior staff, directors, managers, and supervisors. Include the following:

• Provide a brief overview of the change that you want implemented and the reason for the change. Is the organization losing revenue or market share? Are customers or other stakeholders complaining? Are there inefficiencies in processes?
• Describe the key takeaways, according to Wilson, and then outline the roles that senior leaders, managers, and supervisors should play to ensure the takeaways are addressed.
• Compare Kotter’s and Lewin’s recommended change models.
• Identify two other change models and explain the processes.
• Choose one (or more) of the four models, and defend the model(s) that you will use to implement the change process successfully.
