Communication of what is not changing as a result of the new tech.

A common fears from new tech is usually 'what does this mean for my job?'. If you don't adress that you can struggle to get widespread adoption.

I've explore this a bit more in one of the episodes of my podcast where I interviewed an experienced change manager.

I picked option#1 as my response to the survey but it was picking between the first three options. #4 is a bit tricky, I see it as a k-factor to spread the adaptation but not a way to get buy-in for the successful rollout. Furthermore, even #1 is communicated, I believe all four options must be executed in an order.

who are you using to purchase your Microsoft licenses from? We are a midsize enterprise (450 office licenses, plus a bunch of Dynamics spend) We are looking for a vendor that will provide support since we cannot budget for Microsoft direct support. We are also trying to determine if there are benefits to signing a EA over signing a 3 year agreement with someone like Telus who does not have access to EAs (like Softchoice)
