Click and drag

Empower action

Highlighting background element of source domain

Realises that all participants have a role in the outcome and reevaluates their goals, values, beliefs etc to see how they align or clash with that of the interlocutor

combine existing metaphor with another one

Express subjective experiences, capture emotion, elicit emotions

Function as a reaction

Quick and sudden

Create vision for change

Behaves assertively and uncooperatively. Seek to have their own interests met at the expense of others

Involves a cooparative but unassertive style where someone backgrounds their own interest and yields to others

Source: the thing you use to compare to the concept you are trying to describe. Target: the abstract concept/ thing you are conceptualising in terms of another

Make change stick

Communicate the vision

When changes are considered radical or controversial, when there is a history of resistance to a similar change, when critical resources are controlled by employees, when support and cooperation is needed to make change

A departure or complete redefinition from an old organisation. Sunstantially restructuring it

Participants act neither assertively or cooperatively, sidestepping conflict altogether

Build on the change

Forms mini narratives with the metaphor

the process of using words and phrases that establish a particular way of thinking about a topic or social interaction

Create Urgency

Addition to or update of old organisation

anticipatory measure

replace conventional metaphor with another one

Create quick wins

Happening gradually

Participants meet halfway, without anyone's interest being fully satisfied

a structured set of knowledge and beliefs, that captures some generic information about an aspect of the world

Entertain and set scenes for narratives

conceptualise one thing in terms of another

Express abstract ideas and explain complex matters, persuade and provide new perspectives

If result is not one that is desired (ie. considerable resistance to change), the single loop learner goes back to action stategies to solve the problem. Doesnt typically acknowledge role in communication breakdown

Form a powerful coalition

Participants show both assertion and cooperative behaviour, looking for a solution that satisfies all parties

Repetition of same message, Redundancy (communicate similar message in different ways), Plain language (easy to process statements), Informal dialogue (informal social interaction)

When it is physically impossible to communicate face to face with all employees, when resources devoted to change communication are scarce, when there is an urgent need to progress through change process
