Far too often business transformation efforts concentrate on the process improvement strategies and business process re-engineering; while essentially ignoring the people aspect of the change initiative. In my opinion, one should not ignore people who have been part of organisation and it is very important to take their opinion and feedback, which can change face of organisation. Each individual comes with different skills sets and it is important for each organisation to ensure that their past experience and skills are documented and communicated to key stakeholders. Their skills can be utilised based on new project, rather than looking for someone outside of the organisation. This also motivates Employee and it is growth path for them as well.
Over the past decade, I have seen more than 50+ companies try to remake themselves into significantly better competitors and improve gross margins.Their efforts have gone under many banners: total quality management, reengineering, right sizing, restructuring, cultural and change of working environment. However, in almost every case, the basic goal has been the same: to make fundamental changes in how business is conducted in order to help cope with a new, more challenging market environment.
A few of these corporate change efforts have been very successful. A few have been utter failures. Most fall somewhere in between, with a distinct tilt toward the lower end of the scale. The lessons that can be drawn are interesting and it is directly linked with people who were part of the project.

Thinking about making investments in technology my message is simple. Take the people, process, technology approach to maximise chances of achieving both a successful implementation and work more effectively with the clients to win business and maximise company profits. We adopt a constant improvement approach to ensure all stakeholders have bought into the change and feel a part of the journey. We align our processes with technology to ensure all aspects of the business are covered and visually available to all stakeholders.
The technology strategy should engage with their people and processes to support company’s goals. The organization or business should continuously evaluate and improve their technology to meet new objectives and scale with the business as we grow.
