Part five\u00a0of a series<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n Users are creatures of habit. They’ll use what they\u2019re used to. They don\u2019t like change. Especially, if they can adequately do their work with the tools they already have. Or, if they cannot see the value in learning a new tool.<\/p>\n Think of an accountant. They have enough to learn on a regular basis and their focus is on the end results. So, a new piece of software, or a new process, is not really as\u00a0important to them.<\/p>\n Actually, they might prefer to stick to the familiar way to accomplish tasks. Especially if there’s a learning curve to using it. Or, if it might put their data at risk.<\/p>\n You\u2019ve gotten this far in the cloud migration process because you\u2019ve already sold the C-Suite on the benefits, cost savings, increased security, and personnel re-purposing that results from moving to a cloud solution.<\/p>\n But what happens if users don\u2019t buy into your idea and businesses invest in alternative solutions? If you don’t want to end up becoming re-purposed personnel, here’s what you can do to get your users on-board with the change:<\/p>\n Try these additional training resources from Microsoft:<\/p>\n You know your users best. But, typically, if you can get your users to believe the new software makes their work lives easier – and they have the tools and\u00a0training they need – then you have succeeded in planning your cloud roll-out.<\/p>\n Hope you’ve enjoyed the series! If you need more resources or help, please let me know. We have conducted numerous workshops and planning sessions with various organizations to prepare them for a secure trip to the cloud. We can help plan\u00a0your move, too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" You\u2019ve sold leaders on the benefits, cost savings, and security of cloud migration using Office 365.
