    Benefits

    Model mastery sessions

    • Explain the why, what, who, when and how of the PCT Model.

    What does Prosci research say?

    Prosci research reveals that if a project is weak in any of the four aspects of the PCT Model (Success, Leadership/ Sponsorship, Project Management, Change Management), it will struggle or fail.

    • Develop an effective approach to involve key stakeholders in building an ADKAR Blueprint.

    What does Prosci research say?

    In Prosci’s benchmarking research, 41% of respondents reported that over half of the employee resistance they experienced during change could have been avoided by effectively applying change management.
    • Tackle unavoidable resistance and address barriers to change by reactively applying the ADKAR Model.
    • Conduct ADKAR Assessments to track the progress of individual and group transitions required to achieve ADKAR outcomes.
    • Analyse ADKAR Assessments to identify persistent change barriers and assess the risks they pose to achieving ADKAR outcomes.
    • Resolve persistent change barriers by helping senior leaders and managers effectively anticipate resistance and implement adaptive actions.

    What does Prosci research say?

    Resistance to change has remained one of the greatest obstacles to change success in Prosci’s 25 years of change management research, ranking fourth in the most recent Best Practices in Change Management study.

    Discover a performance-oriented approach to achieving change success through advanced knowledge and skills, including:

    • The three levels of performance for change projects and how the levels are connected.
    • The critical success factors for applying the Prosci Change Performance Framework on your project.
    • How to facilitate a process to define metrics for measuring organisational and individual performance.
    • How to develop approaches to engage your key stakeholders to define, track and achieve change performance.

    What does Prosci research say?

    In Prosci’s best-practices research, 40% of respondents identified the lack of alignment on goals and objectives as the main reason change success wasn’t defined for their change projects. Having a common definition of change success—early on—is imperative.

      The course and training sessions were managed very well. I am grateful I had the opportunity to learn from Krish during the three-day Prosci course. Krish’s training approach motivated me to be a better change manager and helped fill gaps in my knowledge. I will definitely sign up for other Prosci programmes at MARG.
