Wait, Kotter has 8 steps? Someone's been drinking a little too much change management Kool-Aid if you ask me.

I've got a better idea - just fire all the doubters. That'll show 'em who's boss! Kotter would be proud, I'm sure.

Hmm, I'm leaning towards C. Accelerating movement towards the vision sounds like it could involve celebrating those short-term achievements. Although, I do enjoy a good short-term win celebration, so D is tempting too.
