ADKAR – A Model for Individual Change
The ADKAR model was first published in 1998 in an article titled, The Perfect Change by Jeff Hiatt. Since that time, ADKAR has become one of the most frequently sought after change management models in Prosci’s methodology and courses. It is easy to remember and strikes a chord in many individuals that allows them to make sense of the overall change management process. ADKAR presents five stages that individuals go through when making a change:
- Awareness of the need to change
- Desire to participate and support the change
- Knowledge about how to change
- Ability to implement new skills and behaviours
- Reinforcement to keep the change in place
This model identifies both the stages and sequence required for an individual to experience successful change. In business changes, the model is central for managing personal transitions and as a guide for developing change management plans. The best way to understand ADKAR is to complete a short exercise about a change you are trying to facilitate with another person, and analyse the resulting ADKAR profile (coming next). Following that exercise, we provide a case study about a father and daughter to show how a barrier to change can be overcome. Once you understand the ADKAR model and how it is used to manage transitions, you can:
- Focus conversations, especially when dealing with resistant employees.
- Diagnose gaps in the change management program for each group or department.
- Identify corrective actions based on specific desired results.
