The paper concludes that higher education institutions need change leaders who have the confidence to adjust an organization's focus. There are several models and theories of change leadership. In this paper three models were reviewed; the Lewin’s model of change, Dunphy and Stace’s model, and Kotter’s model. Lewin theorized a three stage model of change as unfreezing, change, and refreeze. Dunphy and Stace incorporate participatory evolution forced evolution, charismatic transformation, and dictatorial transformation. Kotter’s model proposed eight steps in the change process. The eight steps classified into three phases: create a climate for change, engage and enable the whole organization, and implementing and sustaining Change. Hence, higher education institutions need change leaders who have the confidence to adjust an organization's focus, and who have the leadership skills to make sweeping changes in an organization by moving people or groups in a general direction.
