Jeff Hiatt developed the ADKAR model (1998, 2006) for change management of an individual which consists of five building blocks that an individual have to achieve for realizing the change effectively. They are knowledge, awareness, desire, reinforcement and ability. Management should construct a situation in which people can pass all these stages very quickly, including:

To build awareness of the reason that presupposes the necessity of the change;

To create a desire to participate in the change and support it;

To develop knowledge of the change method;

To foster ability to realize new behaviors and skills;

To provide reinforcements to continue the change.
