We have decades of research evidence about how change happens in organisations & systems. Yet mostly, we don't use this knowledge in practice. The biggest misconception is that once people understand change, they'll embrace it (almost never true). 4 principles that should inform our change efforts:
1) Transformational ideas typically come from outside the community & incur resistance: We build attachments to ideas, people & ways of working - when those attachments are threatened, we tend to act out in ways that don’t reflect our best selves
2) Transformations follow an “S curve” pattern: Innovations take hold slowly amongst a group of enthusiasts, then hit an inflection point at 10%-20% participation, then accelerate exponentially - it's why we should concentrate on building the 10-20% through enthusiasts rather than getting everyone on board with the change
3) There is a common, persistent “KAP-gap”: (the difference between what we say & what we do) - it's because we only change our views/practice when the people around us do & it's why we need to shape networks rather than opinions
4) Transformational ideas are propagated socially: It's not the mode of communication or even the individual influence of early adopters but the structure of the network that determines how fast and far an idea travels

NIHR-funded research into a low-cost drug to control trauma bleeding has led to a worldwide change in practice and continues to drive wider use. The drug is estimated to save around 400 lives in the UK and over 100,000 lives worldwide every year.
