Seven levels of change
Einstein pointed out that “The significant problems we face today cannot be solved at the same level we were at when we created them.” To get change, different results, we must do the things we do differently. The Sevel Levels of Change framework is divided into seven levels: from the natural, to the impossible. It is a spectrum of continual change and innovation with increasing levels of difficulty.
Level 1: Effectiveness
DOING the right things
Level 2: Efficiency
DOING things right
Level 3: Improving
DOING things better
Level 4: Cutting
Stopping DOING things
Level 5: Copying
DOING things other people are doing
Level 6: Different
DOING things no one else is doing
Level 7: Impossible
DOING things that can’t be done
