IS INCREDIBLY
DIFFICULT
THE PROBLEM WITH COMMUNICATION IS THAT:

THE
THE SECRET TO
WHAT IS
CHANGE?
 Make the alternatives incredibly
embarrassing for your end users?
 Select the right tools?
 Train your end users on the right
features, and new processes?
 Get your end users to alter their
behavior, permanently
When end users can adapt to change, they become
 More efficient
 More effective in their roles
 More collaborative
 More innovative
THE SECRET TO
WHAT IS
CHANGE?
OVERLY
EAGER
STORY #2
MANAGER
THE
LASTING CHANGE,
WITHOUT
YOUR EFFORTS WILL
 People follow the path of least resistance
 HOW you reach your destination is just as
important as finishing
 We focus so much on process and
technology, we forget the people
LIKELY FAIL
Collaboration change has broad impact
Technology not only automates and
streamlines, it can fundamentally change
what we do, and how we do it.
Processes are about alignment of people
with technology, and can be a key
differentiator for your business – and
dramatically change in the future workplace.
People are able to adapt and change, but we
often pay the least amount of attention to the
constant pace of change from which we expect
people to learn, adapt, and be productive.
Transparency
Consistency
Iteration
Four ingredients to lasting change
Collaboration

WHY IT
WORKED
 We made all of our activities transparent
 We kept going
 Everyone had a voice, and anyone could write on the board
 We constantly revised our priorities, and communicated our changes
HINGES ON
SUCCESS
CULTURE
Create a culture with change at its center, and
you will find multiple opportunities to step into
the role of the Digital Workplace Champion
