Implementing deep tech doesn't need to be hard

You already know it’s important to stay current with the latest technologies in your industry- it’s what makes you a strong business leader in today’s fast-paced and constantly evolving market. You also know that introducing this technology, especially if it includes artificial intelligence, can be a daunting task as most organizations can be resistant to change or lack an understanding of how new tools and technologies benefit the business and their role within the organization.


It's your job to not only identify technologies that will provide your organization with a competitive advantage, but to also ensure a smooth adoption of these technologies within your team. Here a few tips to help you get the ball rolling:


1. Communicate the value of the new tech to your organization

Prior to introducing and rolling out a new technological solution, make sure your team understands the need for this new solution and how it will benefit them directly and the organization as a whole. It’s vital you clearly articulate the problem the new solution will solve, and how it will help the team increase productivity, efficiency, or general competitiveness. This will aid in the buy-in process and build enthusiasm for change.


2. Provide adequate training

Providing your team with the tools and resources they need to be successful when using the new solution is the cornerstone of rolling out our new technology. This could include in-person training sessions, online tutorials, or one-on-one support. Allow plenty of time to practice and experiment with the solution so team members feel confident using the new tool. It can be a good idea to designate a dedicated point of contact or resource, so team members have a place or person to turn to for questions and support.


3. Encourage collaboration

Working together can increase understanding and break down any hesitation team members may have toward a new solution. It can help build a sense of ownership and support amongst team members and can potentially also lead to new ideas for using the technology innovatively. You can consider setting up a dedicated space or forum for team members to share tips, ask questions, and collaborate on projects related to the new technological solutions.


4. Set clear expectations

Make sure your team knows what is expected of them when it comes to using the new solution. This could include setting deadlines for adoption or establishing guidelines for how the technology should be used. It’s important that you’re clear and specific about these expectations so that team members know exactly what is expected of them.


5. Offer ongoing support

Don’t just drop the bomb and move on. Introduce the technology and continue to offer ongoing support and assistance as needed. This could include regular check-ins or offering additional training sessions as needed. It’s also a good idea to have a system in place for team members to report any issues or challenges they are experiencing with the technology.


Ensuring a smooth adoption of new technologies can be a difficult hurdle to overcome. Remember, change can be difficult, but by communicating the value of the new technological solution, providing adequate training, encouraging collaboration, setting clear expectations, and offering ongoing support, you can help your team embrace the change and integrate the new tool into your ongoing operation.
