Prosci Methodology

A structured, adaptable, repeatable approach to enable individuals to successfully move through changes in your organization.

A framework for managing the people side of change

Organizations must continually change and evolve to succeed. Yet changes such as technology deployments or new processes often fail because leaders and teams put too much focus on the technical aspects of the change. For successful change, organizations must also focus on the people side—and how to ensure that each individual embraces and adopts the change.

Prosci has been conducting in-depth change research for more than 20 years. We’ve studied how individuals experience and respond to change, as well as the strategies of change leaders around the globe.

Based on our best-practices research, we developed the Prosci Methodology for change management. When applied, it supports individuals in transitioning from the current state to the future state, an approach that leads to successful project outcomes.

The main components of the Prosci Methodology

The Prosci Methodology is one of the most widely used approaches to change management in the world, and it continues to evolve. In response to practitioner feedback and changing customer needs, and to prepare for future change trends, we refreshed the methodology in 2021. The updated Prosci Methodology is more actionable and accessible, and we believe the enhancement will elevate client success in incredible ways.

Although the Prosci Methodology encompasses a variety of models, tools, assessments, processes and more, today it is comprised of three main components:

  • PCT Model – a simple but powerful framework for establishing and connecting the most important aspects of any successful change effort
  • ADKAR Model – a highly effective model for guiding individuals through the experiences—or elements—needed to make the change
  • Prosci 3-Phase Process – a structured, flexible framework for driving change at the organizational level

Phase 3 – Sustain Outcomes

Purpose: To realize the value of the change by ensuring the change is adopted and the organization is committed and prepared to sustain the change.

Structured, Scalable and Adaptable

The success of any organizational change depends on the success of change management in encouraging individuals to embrace, adopt and utilize a required change. The change management methodology itself must be structured enough to be repeatable, but also flexible enough to meet the needs of any organization. That’s the Prosci Methodology:

  • Structured – The Prosci Methodology takes what we know about people, change and results and organizes it into a simple process that practitioners can apply to develop change management strategies and plans that increase adoption and usage on a particular initiative.
  • Scalable and adaptable – You can adapt and flex the Prosci Methodology to achieve success in any type of change, where results and outcomes depend on adoption and usage, and in any type and size of organization.

The data is clear: even when organizational changes meet technical requirements and milestones, they can still fail to deliver results and benefits. What’s missing? Change management.
