Prepare Approach
To position the change for success by developing a customized and scaled change management strategy with the necessary sponsorship and commitment.
The way change is managed directly influences what matters most to an organization—its people, customers, and bottom line. As the pace and complexity of change continue to increase, the importance of effective change management grows as well. At its core, change management prepares, equips, and supports employees so they can engage with change, adopt new ways of working, and use them successfully.
Project management and change management play complementary roles in successful change initiatives. While project management addresses the technical aspects of change, change management focuses on the people impacted by it. When organizations apply a best-practice change management approach alongside project management—such as during the implementation of a new accounting platform—the likelihood of meeting project objectives increases dramatically. In fact, Prosci research, based on more than 25 years of global practitioner data, shows that organizations are up to seven times more likely to achieve their project goals.

Applying the principles of change management before, during and after a project can go a long way in helping you achieve the desired returns on your project investments.
Organizations can strengthen their ability to handle ongoing and future change by building overall change capability—often referred to as enterprise change management.
Enterprise change management is the systematic application of change management skills, tools and processes across the organization. This capability can be developed by formally training key roles, embedding change practices into everyday work, and partnering with experienced experts to build internal capability over time.
The Prosci ADKAR® Model provides a structured approach for helping individuals move through change and successfully adopt new ways of working.
Practitioners, change sponsors, people managers, and other stakeholders all play a role in this process.
By working together to apply the ADKAR® Model, organizations support employees in building Awareness of why change is happening, which encourages Desire to participate.
They then provide the Knowledge and Ability needed to adopt new ways of working, along with Reinforcement to ensure the change is sustained over time.
While the ADKAR® Model supports successful change at the individual level, the Prosci 3-Phase Process provides a structured framework for achieving change across the organization.
This flexible approach guides practitioners through the key steps and activities required for project and initiative success. Within the 3-Phase Process, practitioners apply core elements of the Prosci Methodology—including the ADKAR® Model and the PCT Model—to effectively manage both the people and organizational dimensions of change.
