* Make it possible for people to take a piece of the past with them
 
−
* Remind people that change is occurring in the context of continually renewing and sustaining the organization
 
−

−
* Protect people from other changes
 
−
* Create temporary policies, procedures, roles etc as needed
 
−
* Define short term goals & objectives
 
−
* Encourage risk taking & experimenting
 
−
* Step back and take stock – encourage others to do the same
 
−
* Don’t push for closure – and certainly no too soon
 
−
