Did the system go live, or did your people actually adopt it?

 

Go-live is not adoption. This map tests whether your people have crossed the bridge from the old way of working to the new one in behavior, not just in the go-live report.

Covers perceived loss, the three levels of change, and adoption evidence
Built for CIOs, HR leaders, and change sponsors
A 7-question diagnostic before declaring any change adopted
Step 8 of the 9-Step Digital Transformation for Leaders framework

What this tool helps you answer

In February 2018, Revlon went live with a new SAP system across its North American operations. Within weeks, its Oxford, North Carolina facility couldn’t fulfill orders.

Revlon missed roughly 64 million dollars in shipments and spent another 53.6 million dollars on remediation. Its net loss for the fourth quarter of 2018 reached 70 million dollars. The CFO resigned, and shareholders filed suit.

The system worked technically. The organization was not ready to work in it.

Built for leaders who need clarity,
not another checklist

    ✓    You are past go-live and unsure adoption is real

        Name what each group believes it’s losing

        See whether culture and individuals are changing, not just structure

        Test your own leadership behavior against the change

        Track real adoption signals, not project sign-off

        Spot the gap before it reaches a shareholder or a courtroom

    I have spent over 25 years working with governments and major organizations to make digital transformation actually deliver results.

    This map comes from a recurring pattern: a system goes live successfully while the organization underneath it is not ready to run it. The tool is designed to catch that gap in weeks, before it reaches a customer, a shareholder, or a courtroom.
