An Introduction to John Kotter's Leading Change

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Why are some businesses able to weather change while others fail? A video summary of Leading Change by John Kotter explains the importance of constantly reorganizing a business from the ground up. Part of a larger playlist on the world's greatest ideas, the video uses pictures and an outline of key points to help make the argument clear.
