While change can be good, it can also lead to unnecessary stress on staff members. Hayes Management highlights 4 areas that organizations can look at to help smooth the implementation process, according to a recent blog post.

1. Assess staff tech-savvy skills

Who has the most experience with technology? Who shys away from technology? Finding out who needs little or a lot of training can help with having balanced staffing schedules during implementation.

2. Align training with job roles

Find out how each staff member will utilize the new technology and keep training focused on those actions.

3. Utilize super users

4. Remain positive

Implementation woes sometimes cause some dissent throughout the organization. It is important to keep staff engaged and have an optimistic outlook.
