How Prosci’s Change Management Framework Drives Lasting Results

When it comes to managing changes, whether implementing new technologies accross a single team or entire organization or transforming processes, having a structured approach makes all the difference. A strong change management framework is important, because it focuses not just on the process but also on the people behind the change.

Why Focus on the Individual?

The success of any organizational change ultimately comes down to the individuals impacted by that change. Change is not just about installing a new system or introducing a new process—it’s about ensuring that every employee adopts new behaviors and integrates the change into their daily work. This is why Prosci emphasizes the "people side" of change through models like ADKAR, which focuses on individual-level transformation by guiding each person through five key stages: Awareness, Desire, Knowledge, Ability, and Reinforcement.

Without active and sustained adoption by individuals, even the most well-planned changes can falter. Resistance to change often arises because of the complexities of human behavior. People are naturally inclined to resist new ways of doing things, and change leaders must address these individual concerns. As an example of this complexity, consider that our brains have more than 100 trillion connection centers—making the process of adapting to new ways of working even more intricate.

Why Prosci?

Prosci’s ADKAR model helps tackle these challenges by providing a clear, step-by-step process that addresses the needs of each person involved in the change. It is designed to help employees make personal transitions, ensuring that change doesn’t just happen at the organizational level but also at the individual level. By focusing on the progression of individuals, ADKAR ensures the change is embedded into daily practices, fostering long-term success.

Addressing individual needs is key to avoiding issues like talent attrition. People want to feel supported during times of transition, and by tailoring support to how different individuals react to change, you can increase the likelihood of successful adoption. As each person makes the transition, it significantly increases the chances of the organization meeting its larger goals.
