What do you do if stakeholders are resistant to the benefits of new technology?
Often change management fails or at least falls short when organizations want to get everything perfect before communicating. The reality is that people talk and a lack of communications will only be superseded by guesses and gossip. Trust that colleagues are smart and want to do the right thing. Share the plan - explaining when along the way they will be consulted, when they will be informed, and when decisions will be made. If a pilot fails, say why! Withholding information never works!

What do you do if stakeholders are resistant to the benefits of new technology?
These are the people who will be using the technology, so they have to be involved, ideally co-creating the configuration, workflow, features, etc. This ensures that the technology meets their needs and gives them a vested interest in its outcome and successful deployment.
