Explore the different types of change adopters in the Systemic Change Model: Trailblazers are innovative individuals who embark on new journeys, motivated by vision and opportunity. Pioneers follow in small clusters, needing some support to navigate concepts. Settlers, in larger groups, require extensive encouragement and leadership to sustain efforts, facing expected frustrations. Sit-at-home participants resist active engagement but provide passive support, while Saboteurs actively oppose change efforts. Each type plays a critical role in the change process.

Participants of the Systemic Change Model Trailblazers Pioneers Settlers Sit-at-home Saboteurs
“Trailblazer” • Prepared to go where no one else has gone. • Excited and self motivated. Go it alone. • Needs only a vision and the opportunity. • Innovative and self reliant. • Require little support, encouragement or protection.
“Pioneers” • Travel behind trailblazers in small clusters. • Need vision and the concept developed. • Require some support, encouragement and protection.
“Settlers” • Travel behind Pioneers in larger bunches (wagon trains). • Require extensive support, encouragement, and protection. • Strong leadership is required to sustain efforts. • Frustration is normal and should be expected.
“Sit at Home” • Passive resistors to change efforts. • Supportive, but do not want to participate personally. • “I’ll support you, but don’t ask me to go…” • “I think things are just fine.” • “We’ve done this before …” • These people are often former Trailblazers and Pioneers who have grown weary because of ineffective ventures… “I told you so!”
“Saboteurs” • Active resistors to change efforts. • Non-supportive and do not want anyone to participate.
