PAUSE.
Clarity and awareness are crucial.
Pause – does not mean the suspension of action, but rather the intentional focus on the current state to identify what needs to be adjusted or changed, and why.

PROCESS.
Collaboration and assessment are essential.
Identify challenges and ideate options and solutions.

gratitude
Empower Health America is an education-based consulting firm that values research.
Thank you to Northeastern University in Boston for conducting academic research to test the validity of the
5P Change Model™
Twenty talented student researchers tested the validity of the model in the following four areas.
The 5P Change Model™ & the research that supports the model reinforces the importance of PAUSING and PROCESSING before taking action. Practicing mindfulness can also have an extremely positive impact on decision-making.

Additional Comments
Northeastern Student Researchers
The 5P Change Model™ helps individuals to learn how to break down decisions in a strategic and effective manner, especially when under stress.
Working with the 5P Change Model™ showed me that decisions are not always straightforward and involve thorough reflection on the situation at hand and greater self-awareness. The 5P framework guides an individual towards making the most optimal decision based on their unique values and goals. - Northeastern Student Researcher
Using the 5P Change Model™ has helped me realize the importance of:
Being open-minded and flexible when working with a team
Pausing and breathing
Self-reflection and mindfulness to ultimately make the best decision
Being kind to myself and others during stressful and difficult situations
Introspection and mindful thought and how both can have a powerful impact on one's life
Taking a "pause" during times of stress in our lives
I benefited from learning about the versatility of The 5P Change Model™ and how it can be applied to various stressful situations that I may encounter.
This project opened my eyes to the potential that a model like this can have on increasing efficiency and reducing stress!
I hope to incorporate The 5P Change Model™ into my own life.
Working on The 5P Change Model™ elucidated so much of what life is all about: perpetual self-reflection and self-growth!
Being able to work with a business sponsor and do research with a team was an outstanding opportunity.
The opportunity to collaborate with a corporate sponsor and peers to research the model was a rewarding experience.
