About this listen

A Prosci Publication Written by Karen Ball

Foreword by Jeffrey M. Hiatt, Author, ADKAR: A Model for Change in Business, Government and our Community

Why Do Some Changes Fail While Others Succeed?

That question was the catalyst that drove Prosci founder Jeff Hiatt in the late 1990s to uncover the secret to successful change—and develop the popular change management model known as ADKAR.

ADKAR is an acronym for Awareness, Desire, Knowledge, Ability, and Reinforcement. It’s a model and conceptual framework that makes change make sense.

The ADKAR Advantage sheds new light on this powerful yet simple model for facilitating change while providing in-depth “how-to” guidance and helpful downloadable resources. With ADKAR as your new lens, you can achieve the outcomes you seek from change and sustain them over time.

That’s The ADKAR Advantage.

“When ADKAR is present, CHANGE HAPPENS.”—ADKAR Storyteller

The book content is organized into three parts:

  • Part 1: How One Person Makes a Change
  • Part 2: How Groups of People Make a Change
  • Part 3: How Organizations Become Better at Change

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The performer is robotic. The subject matter is rigid and corporate focused on treating your people as an obstacle to your results. It advocates for removing individuality and any sense of difference of experience and treating every person as a barrier that can be "managed" with their system.

This is quite archaic thinking and pays no respect to neurodiversity or the need to be flexible and adapt.

The sentiment that they haven't needed to change their system and never will shows a level of egotism and self deception that is uncomfortable to listen to.

While the basis for the model is sound the more that the book delves into the intricacies the more delusional the concepts appear.

Do not recommend.
