John Kotter’s theory for leading can help business staffs to
improve their performance especially in completing assignments and improving
teamwork. His theory centers on eight
steps:
1.
Creating urgency to spur change.
2.
Forming a powerful coalition from people of
diverse talents.
3.
Make a vision of change that would inspire and
rally your group.
4.
Communicate that vision so that all of you
understand what needs to be done.
5.
Remove obstacles that would impede your goals.
6.
Create short-term wins that would help in the
short run but will contribute in the long run.
7.
Build on change while the momentum is there.
8.
Anchor that change as a model for others to
follow.
Explanation:
Resistance to change occurs when there is some kind of change in the organization, such as changes in the structure of the business, changes in teams, technologies, etc.
This is because there is insecurity in employees, often due to lack of sufficient information about the change and fear of not being able to adapt.
To eliminate employee resistance, company managers must communicate how the change will occur and why it is necessary, listing the positives of the changes and the benefits it will bring to the organization, enabling feedback so that employees feel included and their perception be positive.

Answer:
No, because they violated the duty of care
Explanation:
Business judgement rule is a provision that protects the management of a business from frivolous legal action concerning the way it does business.
The court assumes that the management acts in good faith in its fiduciary role, standard of loyalty, prudence, and care.
Duty of care is breached when the management do not make reasonable effort to prevent injury or loss.
In this instance Signal board is not protected by the business judgement rule because they violated duty of care.
Although the offer by Burmah oil is above the valuation a month ago, the board did not bother to do a present valuation or find out if other companies want to buy the subsidiary at a higher price.
