ADKAR: A Model for Change in Business, Government and our Community

Managing Individuals Responses to Organisation Change

Change can be a very uncomfortable experience even when we recognise its necessity.

Understanding our own reaction is an important first step to dealing with it. Change Reaction is an effective tool for understanding an individual’s attitude to change, and identifying ways to manage it better.

Cope with change more easily

Change is inevitable and usually well intentioned but managing individual and collective responses to changes is a real, and increasing challenge for everybody involved, whatever their role.

It is difficult to understand and predict how individual and organisational responses and behaviour will be affected by the changes themselves or the personalities and attitudes of those affected.

The Change Management Predictor is designed to smooth the path by increasing the awareness of your own approach and a greater appreciation of how best to work with others.

Better Understand Staff Concerns About Change

A key strategy for managing and implementing change is to fully understand the concerns, including the subliminal and things that people may not want to openly admit. By more fully understanding the challenges it is possible to deal with them in an appropriate fashion and overcome them.

The questionnaire identifies these and other issues It can be used over time to measure progress and also averaged over a group to identify collective concerns.

The Leaders Guide establishes the Stages of Concern, and gives useful tools and approaches for dealing with each of them including “lesson” plans. The Leaders Guide is intended for Managers, Supervisors, Team Leaders HR Managers and Change Managers. It gives an understanding of how the questionnaire works, and some practical methods for using Change Abilitator.
