Mental Models For Managing Change - Gleicher's Formula

The Inner Game of Change

Hi everyone, and welcome to a very special mini-series on The Inner Game of Change. I’m thrilled to take you on this journey as we explore something both timeless and practical: mental models for managing change.

Let’s start with a quick definition. A mental model is a framework or way of thinking that helps us understand the world, make decisions, and solve problems more effectively. It’s like a blueprint for how to approach challenges and navigate complexity.

Now, here’s a simple analogy: Imagine you’re driving to a new destination. Without a map, you might take wrong turns, waste time, or even get lost. But with a map—your mental model—you have a clear route, helping you avoid mistakes and reach your goal safer and faster.

In the same way, mental models give us a clearer path for managing change. They simplify complexity and guide us toward better outcomes

Let’s dive into our very first episode, where we’ll explore Gleicher’s Formula for Change—a simple yet powerful equation that helps you understand how to overcome resistance and move toward action
