Change is something everyone faces, including individuals and organizations. Sometimes we experience change as positive and other times as a threat. The Four Rooms of Change theory explains how we react to and deal with change.
What is the Four Rooms of Change?
Do you want to know more about the Four Rooms of Change? It is a comprehensive concept comprising methods, analytical instruments, and models for innovation, development, and change.
It has its origins in Claes Janssen’s research from the 1960s and 1970s, which shows how individuals or groups travel through different stages during change processes. The Four Rooms also shows how individuals experience reality differently and how these differences can hinder or promote cooperation, change, and development.
Based on these findings, Claes Janssen and A&L Partners AB developed practical, user-friendly analysis instruments, models, and tools that individuals and groups—not least businesses—use with great success.
Since the 1990s, the Four Rooms of Change has been applied in companies, the public sector, and nonprofit organizations. Today, hundreds of thousands of people around the world have received help and insights through the Four Rooms Model.
The certification program ensures the quality and value of its practical application.
