What steps did they take to manage these changes? Now that several years have passed since the changes in this video were implemented, what is your assessment of Ford’s change management strategy? Were they successful or not? Support your position by citing recent articles and by researching data on Ford’s market share, financial performance and long-term prospects.

Question 2 – Sometimes Simple Change isn’t so simple : Read the case study “Sometimes a Simple Change Isn’t So Simple.” Consider John Kotter’s eight-stage process for managing change (in his book Leading Change).
