TODD TAKES

Crawl, Walk, Run Approach to Technology Adoption: When implementing new technologies, start small with a "Crawl, Walk, Run" strategy. This phased approach allows for greater agility, the ability to learn from early steps, and the momentum to scale effectively. Ensure you have a strategic vision, clearly identifying who should be involved and the specific goals the new technology will help achieve.

The Power of Consistency in Technology Workflows: Consistency is key to repeatability and success in technology implementation. Establish standard operating procedures for your technology workflows to maintain quality control and reliability. These standards ensure your team can execute with confidence and deliver predictable results every time.

Embracing Diverse Perspectives through Reverse Mentorship: Building a culture of innovation requires openness to different perspectives and fresh ideas. Reverse mentorship, where younger employees mentor senior team members on emerging trends and technology, is a powerful way to foster collaboration and a forward-thinking mindset. Companies that embrace diverse ideas and adapt quickly are the ones leading in the technology race.
