Managing the People Side of Change

The Prosci ADKAR Model is a goal-oriented change management model that guides individual and organizational change. ADKAR is an acronym that represents the five stages people must move through to adopt a new way of doing things – Awareness, Desire, Knowledge, Ability and Reinforcement. The ADKAR Model is a powerful framework for understanding how change can happen with a single individual and can be used personally, by viewing a change you are working through and identifying where and why you may be struggling.

Many behavioral psychologists have researched the theory that people’s behavior can be roughly classified in four groups, represented as quadrants. This course will help you understand the four dominant personality styles: Driver, Expressor, Amiable and Analytical. Each quadrant represents the behavioral styles of people in that group. By recognizing our dominant style and developing the ability to identify traits in others, we can change our behaviors to interact with a wide variety of personalities and tendencies.

During the course, participants can learn about group dynamics in general, understand their strengths and weaknesses, and harness their efforts towards team goals. Participants will also discuss the different development stages a group goes through to reach success.
