| The main objective of a good change agent, is the joint optimization of the outcomes for the organization as a whole, as well as for its individual members and other stakeholders. |
| The essential point that the catalyst change agent stresses is the need for change and for special recognition of the interests of the disadvantaged group. |
| One of the problems a change agent faces is that they may be seen by many in the client system as a trouble maker and deliberate disrupter. |
| To be a change agent, immediately implement changes over which you have control. |
| The catalyst change agent therefore needs to be an organizer and a promoter of togetherness, one who can infuse a feeling of common identity and purpose. |
| Very frequently, in assuming the role of change agent, a person is moving out of a previously held role with which the client system has him firmly identified. |
