To make the change happen in the organisation, we need to create awareness, desire, knowledge, ability, and reinforcement among every individual employee.
ReplyDeleteThus, a change model like ADKAR provides the building blocks for the successful implementation of the organisational change.
While the ADKAR model allows businesses to implement a five-stage change strategy, not all change processes can be adequately summarized using the ideas above. For example, implementing more training and development activities would not be advantageous if an organization's personnel indicate high levels of stress and high turnover intentions (Prosci, 2020). When meeting with management, employees may already be aware of the need for change or recommend particular change methods. Employers would not need to promote change awareness any further when responding to their expectations.
