How To Be Willing Partners in DAM But Why Are There Often Roadblocks and Resistance to Change?

28 June, 14:20 PM

Change can be good for the many but an uneasy experience for some. In the world of DAM preparing a firm foundation on which to build change helps the process of acceptance and increases the chances of success.

First thing first, in each project ask where and why is there resistance to change.

This session explains how, by presenting DAM as an opportunity for all stakeholders (unwilling and willing partners in change), stimulates interesting conversations that, if properly understood, enable the change leader to make the right moves, in the right ways at the right times.

Covering:

  • How positive use cases can be used to drive strategy and overcome roadblocks and resistance to DAM projects.
  • Why demonstrating self-sufficiency through DAM can gain support from key partners. 
  • Best practice in how to engage and collaborate with all stakeholders – a sure fire way to deliver better user experience.
  • How to create a space for open feedback and dialogue on DAM projects so all partners’ needs and concerns are recognized – and are seen to have been recognized.

HS DAM events provide me with the opportunity to network and get a flavour of products and plug ins being used and how people are integrating technology into their DAMs.

HS DAM events are an invaluable opportunity to meet a wide range of DAM practitioners, futurologists, and deep specialists. You'll find parallels in industries you know and new concepts from industries you don't, that will make you question and improve your practice.
