Analyze the Medicaid Case Study using Kotter’s model for change. Specifically, what did or didn’t the City, in partnership with the consulting firm, do that followed or went against the model.
What types of interventions were used to “induce” change
What types of resistance to change were present? What did or didn’t the City and/or the consulting firm do that enabled them to overcome any resistance to change. .
Define the leadership strategies present to lead the change and overcome resistance.
What limitations does Kotter’s model have, and how did they manifest in this particular situation? What should be done to ensure that when using it they do not impact your analysis / change project?

The key aspects of this assignment that should be covered in your paper include:
Apply the Kotter Model of Change to analyze the case study.
Thoroughly examine the eight key areas of the model.

Identify individual sources of resistance to change and their causes
Identify structural sources of resistance to change and their causes
Evaluate the City / consulting firm’s leadership and the impact it had on overcoming the individual and structural barriers to change at Medicaid.
What else would you recommend be done to help avoid and/or overcome resistance to change at the Medicaid offices going forward?
What are the limitations of Kotter’s model? How would you recommend it be changed?
