If you’ve ever faced a major digital transformation, you understand that user adoption can be a nightmare. It often requires adjusting job duties, challenges with access to information, changing how we work with other departments, and learning new techniques for old work routines. Things can get beastly around the workplace without the proper support to ensure successful digital adoption. 

Seventy percent of organizational change initiatives fail, which is scary. Moreover, while 74 percent of leaders say they involved employees in creating a change strategy, only 42 percent of employees feel included. 

If demons plague your digital adoption strategies, we can help. Studies show that change success increases by 24 percent when employees primarily own implementation planning. When guided by an experienced change management team, valued employees will understand the overall goal of digital transformation and quickly recognize that their contributions to the organization are necessary, and that implementation is essential. 

Even with the best intentions, your teams may still be rattled by dark, unknown corners, strange apparitions, and unnerving bumps in the night that make it tough for them to take the next step toward change. 

Here are the top seven scary features of change management that Simplus can help solve. 

 

A Ghostly Resistance to Change 

Change is likely the scariest feature of all, as old traditions and routines haunt employees. Simplus uses strategic communication and training to banish these old habits and ensure everyone is on board with the new changes.

 

Adoption Follows a Zombie-like Pace  

Simplus implements structured rollout plans and continuous support to keep the adoption process alive and kicking, not undead and dragging. 

 

Integration That Looks and Functions Like Frankenstein 

Piecing together various systems can create a mess that leaves data vulnerable, creates spotty access, buries information in weird places, silos departments, and, at times, motivates employees to grab their pitchforks for a stand-off at sundown. 

Fortunately, the Simplus Business Transformation Services Team has years of experience handling misunderstood mounds of digital mess. It works with your teams to create seamless integration that ensures your systems and departments work together without any horrifying glitches. 

 

Vampiric Data Suckers  

Is unstructured data draining the life out of your team’s productivity? Some studies estimate that almost 90 percent of company data is unstructured, wreaking havoc on a company’s ability to provide positive customer experiences, streamline processes, reduce costs, and empower employees with resources and support to do their jobs. 

A landmark survey of employee fatigue found that 83 percent of employees don’t think their employer has provided enough tools or resources to help them adapt to changes at work. And that can haunt company engagement and productivity levels. 

Simplus helps safeguard your data from vampire-esque data suckers with robust management strategies that prevent unauthorized access for smooth, efficient data flow.

 

Haunted Department Silos 

Miscommunication among teams is creepy and costly. A recent survey found that 83 percent of data-focused projects crumble from challenges like data silos. The same study found that companies lose up to $140 billion annually due to data silos.

Collaboration can defeat any monstrous challenges. Simplus ensures clear, transparent communication channels so everyone knows what’s happening and when. When a company adopts a culture of teamwork with collaborative tools and practices, everyone understands they can share their insights and support each other. 

 

A Witch’s Brew of Complex Formulas 

Complex processes can feel like a witch’s spell gone wrong. By using the right spell (and maybe the eye of a newt and a sprinkle of pixie dust), you can captivate your team with engaging onboarding experiences. 

We often suggest using interactive tutorials, gamified learning, and incentives to make the new platform as appealing as a bag of Halloween candy. The Simplus BTS team can simplify and streamline these processes so they’re easy to follow and not a tangled web of confusion.

Fear of failure can paralyze progress. Simplus provides the support and confidence needed to face change head-on, turning potential nightmares into dreams of success.

So, don’t be spooked by the horrors of change management! We understand that the fear of failure can paralyze progress. The Simplus team provides the support and confidence you need to face change head-on and turn potential nightmares into dreams of success.
