“To Fly. To Serve.” That’s the motto of British Airways, a carrier I have flown for many years. When I first saw those words displayed on a plaque in the cabin as I boarded my flight, I chuckled. At the time, they seemed rather pretentious for what has become a very commonplace, almost plebeian way to get folks from one place to another. Of course, the more I thought about it, the more I warmed to the seriousness with which somebody at BA viewed the enormous responsibility inherent in transporting hundreds of people across the Atlantic in a silver tube. I realized how much was riding on that bus!

But it didn’t. So I tried several common over-the-counter remedies; the ones that everyone takes. They provided some improvement, but none resolved my problem.

When I was a kid in grade school, I always hated homework because it often stood in the way of going outside to play with my friends. I can remember joking around with them and saying that we needed to build a robot to do our homework for us. That way, we could spend our after school time riding bikes and playing together.

In my previous blog on change management, we examined the natural and inevitable cycle of change that people go through during times of change. We explored how resistance to change is often a more troubling problem than even the most complicated tangle of technology, and how project managers and systems integrators need to account for these human factors. Indeed, no matter how innovative new systems and technology are, or how thoughtfully we have put together our strategies, if people resist change and find ways to sabotage our efforts, it is unlikely that even the best technical implementation will have meaningful success.

In the words of the great John Lennon, "You may say I’m a dreamer...but I’m not the only one." According to AIIM research, 75% of the organizations we surveyed view digital transformation as “important” or “very important” to their organization. But why? Most respondents pointed to operational savings as a result of a more digital and connected workflow. In other words: cut the paper, cut the inefficiencies.
