Think back to middle school English classes. You were taught that your titles should summarize your main points. People should be able to get the gist of what you’re talking about by just reading the title. The problem is that what you learned in English class is wrong. You don’t want your executives or stakeholders believing they know what you’re going to say without reading what you’ve said, do you?

We’ve all been there. We know that our information management technology is getting old, and it needs to be replaced. We can’t integrate to the newest artificial intelligence tools that could help improve the completeness and accuracy of the metadata, nor can we feel confident that we are managing records appropriately, and don’t even get me started on search. Despite these problems that we’re critically aware of, we sometimes find it difficult to get executive buy-in for the projects that are so desperately needed.

Enacting change is easier when you don’t have to go at it alone. In fact, a major factor in the success of organizational change comes down to internal buy-in with your co-workers. The more internal advocates you have on your side, the easier that positive change can spread quickly and efficiently. The old adage about there being ‘strength in numbers’ holds true when it comes to change management.

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.
