Automation goes best when the people doing the work help shape it. Here is how to bring your team in early, and what to tell them.
The fastest way to make automation fail is to surprise the people whose work it touches. The fastest way to make it succeed is to involve them from the first conversation.
People worry that automation means fewer jobs. Our goal is fewer evenings at the keyboard, not fewer people. Tell your team that directly, and mean it.
The person who retypes the orders knows every workaround. During the fit check we sit with them and map how the work really moves, not how the org chart says it does.
Bots handle the routine work. Anything that needs judgment routes to a named person. Decide who those people are before anything is built.
Pick the process that annoys the team most. A visible early win builds trust for the next one.
The fastest way to see if this fits your shop is a fit check.
