Why do some changes succeed while others fail?

This question inspired Prosci founder Jeff Hiatt to uncover the secret to effective change in the late 1990s and develop the popular change management model known as ADKAR.

What is ADKAR?

ADKAR is an acronym standing for:

  • Awareness
  • Desire
  • Knowledge
  • Ability
  • Reinforcement

It is a model and conceptual framework that makes change understandable and achievable.

The Advantage of the ADKAR Model

"The ADKAR Advantage" sheds new light on this powerful yet simple model for facilitating change, providing detailed guidance and helpful downloadable resources. With ADKAR as your new tool, you can achieve desired change outcomes and sustain them over time.

The book is divided into three parts:

  • Part 2: How Groups of People Make a Change – Learn how teams can collaboratively achieve success in change initiatives.
  • Part 3: How Organizations Become Better at Managing Change – Discover how entire organizations can improve their change management capabilities.

"When ADKAR is present, CHANGE HAPPENS."
—ADKAR Storyteller
