This document summarizes a presentation by Lori Reed on managing change in libraries. Reed discusses her experience leading a library through major budget cuts that resulted in closing branches and laying off staff. She outlines several models for understanding and coping with change, including the stages of grief and change, circles of control and influence, and Kotter's change model. Reed emphasizes the importance of building teams, communicating vision, and getting short-term wins when leading change initiatives. She advises accepting that libraries will look different in the future and viewing change as an opportunity for growth.

How do people make decisions and convictions? Kris De Meyer is a visiting research fellow in neuroscience at King’s College London. He has worked for 6 years in the field of public engagement, bringing relevant insights from neuroscience and psychology to the communication of controversial science.
I created this presentation for a 3 hour motivation session for 240 civil service aspirants. These are the people who would one day be occupying leading positions in our Government's Administrative and other government service sections. Although many of the ideas and literature have been inspired and taken from various sources, and I'm deeply indebted to the owners of those information, I presented the same using a lot of examples and observations from my own experiences. I also used 3 movie clips as anchor clips in order to emphasize the messages I was putting across. If you need any further information about the presentation, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Editor's Notes
The library I grew up with in St. Augustine, Florida on Aviles Street
When I was old enough to ride my bike alone we got a new library. The library was a different place. Like most libraries today it was warm, filled with light, books. It felt like a safe place and became my home away from home.
The day I fell in love with a librarian. When my mom challenged this book.
In most libraries who is the first person seen and the last person seen by patrons?http://www.flickr.com/photos/beebe_library/7076623653Lucius Beebe Memorial Library
These are things happening that I may or may not be concerned about.
These are things that I am concerned about but have no control over.They may impact me but I cannot control the outcome.
These are things that I am concerned about and have control over.This is where we need to focus our physical and mental energy
Issues affecting libraries
1. Increase urgency Examine market and competitive realities Identify and discuss crisis, potential crisis, or major opportunities Provide evidence from outside the organization that change is necessary 2. Build the Guiding Team Assemble a group with enough power to lead the change effort Attract key change leaders by showing enthusiasm and commitment Encourage the group to work together as a team 3. Get the Vision Right Create a vision to help direct the change effort Develop strategies for achieving that vision 4. Communicate for Buy-in Build alignment and engagement through stories Use every vehicle possible to communicate the new vision and strategies Keep communication simple and heartfelt Teach new behaviors by the example of the guiding coalition 5. Empowering Action Remove obstacles to the change Change systems and / or structures that work against the vision 6. Create short term wins Plan for and achieve visible performance improvements Recognize and reward those involved in bringing the improvements to life 7. Do Not Let Up Plan for and create visible performance improvements Recognize and reward personnel involved in the improvements Reinforce the behaviours shown that led to the improvements 8. Make Change Stick Articulate the connections between the new behaviors and corporate success
“Often, creating value requires significant change!” this is how John Kotter concluded 1990 in his book “A force for Change: How Leadership Differs from Management”.
