The key to enhance change readiness is to work with the four incentives of Knowing, Reflecting, Willing and Capable.
Why are these incentives so important?
Overview of the 4 incentives:
• Knowing

In this section you will learn why Knowing leads to understanding and how to design the incentive of Knowing. As a bonus you can download a cheat sheet.
Knowing - What is this incentive about? How does it affect the people to whom the change is targeted? Why is it important?
Designing the first incentive: Knowing. By this design you guide the stakeholders to understanding the change objective.
In this lecture you make your own design with the Cheat sheet Knowing.

In this section you dive into the second incentive to enhance change readiness: Reflection, which drives personal motivation for change. Why does Reflection leads to motivation? And how do you design a process where people start reflecting?

In this section you explore why Willing leads to engagement, how to design the incentive of Willing and you make an assignment with a cheat sheet.
Willing - What is this incentive about? How does it affect the people to whom the change is targeted? Why is it important?
How to design the incentive Willing? To create a process where all stakeholders participate in crafting solutions which contribute to the change.
In this lecture you make your own design with the cheat sheet Willing.

In this section you will learn why Capable leads to commitment, how to design the incentive of Capable and you have an assignment. And again I designed a cheat sheet of this incentive for you.
Capable - What is this incentive about? How does it affect the people to whom the change is targeted? Why is it important?
Designing the incentive of Capable, namely building an infrastructure whereby all targeted people are facilitated and able to realise the change.
In this lecture you make your own design with the cheat sheet Capable.
