After all, from most people\u2019s perspective, how hard can it really be to implement a new system?<\/p>\n<p class=\"i_notes\">One thing we have discovered over the years: Experience based knowledge is valuable.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 It unpicks complex challenges (in our world, these are often a mashup of process, technology and change issues)<br \/>\n\u2022 It spots pitfalls before they are stumbled into<br \/>\n\u2022 It engenders confidence<\/p>\n<p class=\"i_notes\">Experience based knowledge is also rare; \u201cgetting the right people on the bus\u201d (Jim Collins) is not easy. However the investment will pay for itself many times over. Ironic perhaps, that some of the talent concepts behind the tech we deliver do not make it to the team around implementing that tech. Too often converting the dream to reality results in disappointment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"i_notes\">Picture this. It\u2019s the weekly meeting and the team has become disoriented \u2013 \u201cwe are being asked to make decisions, we\u2019re told they are important and if we get them wrong it will be costly, we\u2019re so busy and can\u2019t quite get a perspective on where the priorities lie, we\u2019ve rather lost our way&#8230;\u201d Sound familiar? It might be during Architect stage for example when requirements are captured on workbooks \u2013 this is the first time for most people and they are working \u2018blind\u2019. Suddenly what seemed straightforward has become a quagmire.<\/p>\n<p class=\"i_notes\">We start to feel bogged down, views become entrenched, us v them discussions start. This kind of situation is a good test of the sponsors and the project\/change managers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"i_notes\">But what can really make a difference is someone who can provide clarity, cut through the confusion, because they have been there before, seen it, done it \u2013 someone who can find a route through the swamp and out the other side. You need that person.<\/p>\n<p class=\"i_notes\">illuceo is designed to make this all a bit easier \u2013 a place where companies implementing Workday can find people who have done it before and know what they are talking about.
