This document discusses a "Technology Advocate Programme" launched by Transport for London to engage end-users in a large change initiative involving new hardware and software. The programme aimed to actively involve frontline staff to help define what technologies would be useful to them. Over 220 volunteers joined in the first few months, and advocates successfully suggested three app ideas. Their early buy-in helped prove the value of an inclusive approach to user engagement for defining technological changes.

Change Initiative: Creating Vision
Katrice, Overall, you did a very nice job on this assignment. The content, flow and organization were excellent. You addressed each of the seven numbered questions/topics in a thorough and complete manner. The references you used did a very nice job supporting your work. Your paper was also nicely written. There were two areas for improvement. Your paper did not have an opening introductory paragraph that contained a thesis statement. This is an APA format requirement. The second is references. The references you used were good and supported the content. However, the Kotter & Cohen textbook is the primary source of information for this course. Therefore, in addition to the sources you used, using information from the Kotter text would have strengthened the paper. Otherwise, nice work! As a side note, although your paper was submitted after the Wednesday deadline, I did not deduct any points this time since it was the first written assignment. Please be sure to adhere to future submission deadlines.

Introduction to change management communications for technology projects. Use communications in a change management program for a tech project that results in happy end-users who adopt and embrace change.
In this webinar, Build Consulting expert Peter Mirus explains how to build a technology roadmap that will guide your organization to a successful future.
Peter draws on years of experience consulting with nonprofits on technology projects to give you practical steps to implement quickly.
Don’t miss this chance to learn how your organization can create a technology roadmap that is right for you.
As with all our webinars, this presentation is appropriate for an audience of varied IT experience.
Ever increasing computational power, advances in artificial intelligence and the lower of the cost computation (because of cloud computing services such as Azure and Amazon Web Services) has enabled healthcare systems – often laggards in quality improvement and technology adoption – to rapidly implement analytics systems. Such systems enable enterprises to analyze and model their processes, engage in meaningful quality and process improvement activities, and prepare to succeed in value and risk-based payment models.

8. Actively collaborate with the
End-Users to define what is
going to be useful to them
This inclusive approach
should yield solutions which
would be easy for the target
audience to use
Solution
A Fresh Approach
10. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) is an information systems theory that models how users come to
accept and use a technology. The model suggests that when users are presented with a new technology, a
number of factors influence their decision about how and when they will use it, notably:
• Perceived usefulness can be defined as the degree to which a person believes that using a particular
system would enhance his or her job performance
• Perceived ease-of-use the degree to which a person believes that using a particular system would be
free from effort
Supporting Theory
12. • 24hr Shift-working End-Users vs. “9 to 5”
development teams
• Staffing levels on the stations are a set number
by legal requirement
• 270 Disparate location of End-Users vs. much
fewer fixed locations of development teams
The Dilemma
13. A wide cross-section of the
representative user base needed.
This includes variants in:
1. Age
2. Length of service
3. Affected Roles
A large number (5% of total user
community) also needed.
Design Response
NB: This was all to be voluntary. Presented as an opportunity to
influence the technology and “accessories” that would be deployed
and impact their roles
14. • Varying levels of tech savvy
acceptable
• Only requirement is interest in
being part of the shaping of
technology to affect them
• Everyone’s opinion matters no
grade
• Empathy for less-enthused
colleagues stressed
Guiding Principles
15. Involve lowest grades staff
first
Get the support from the
senior management team
Gaining Initiative Support
Development
16. • Able to build rapport rapidly
• Establish Credibility
• Excellent Communicator
• Has genuine empathy
The Change Agent
17. • 100 volunteers in first 3 days - 220 in total
• Model case for use of Yammer as a staff
communication and collaboration tool
• 3 viable apps suggested by advocates in first 6
months of program’s existence
– One currently in discovery
• Wider organization keen to adopt similar
approach to meet their technology
engagement needs
The Result
Don’t want to end up like Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams with their Marvin Gaye stories
Knowing you
In addition to all that was mentioned on the previous slide, one thing stood out for me
What at the centre means could be different dependant on who you are but given the environment, content and granny watson’s philosophy I was led to agree with the following definition
Name was critical as well to get the message that it was to be a two way communication
The individual advocating to their colleagues that the tech change coming is going to be beneficial but also advocating into the management structure and back office for technology changes that are what they need to perform their roles better!
Even though the basis was Granny’s philosophy – some academic theory exists to validate the sage wisdom
