Common Mistakes to Avoid

- No clear metrics: Without defined KPIs, you can't measure success or identify areas for improvement.
- Ignoring change management: Technical implementation is only 40% of success; people and process changes matter more.
- Lack of executive support: Projects with C-suite champions have 3.2x higher success rates.
Tools and Resources
The right tools make implementation significantly easier. Here's our recommended tech stack:
- Project management: Asana or Monday.com for tracking implementation
