Editor's Notes
- #5: After Anderson and Anderson, 2001
- #8: One-size does not fit all. If you do not understand the why, changes can fail even when standard processes are followed. Based on Prosci’s Seven Principles of Change http://www.change-management.com/tutorial-seven-principles.htm
- #10: Not exhaustive
- #11: Some models are familiar and some are not.
