Seven years ago we were at the heart of the global HR business as SaaS began to take hold. What we saw was alarming. Companies were investing big on new systems but Adoption was low - pitifully low - and millions of dollars were being wasted. We carried out research and discovered it wasn’t a SaaS problem, it was a people problem.
That learning curve affects people in different ways.
Some relish the chance to learn new ways.
Most don’t.
And it’s when most don’t that your new business strategy becomes disrupted.
It happened in the transition from typewriters to word processors and from faxes to emails.
It always happens. Because we are people, not machines.

Adoption isn’t just about building walk-through tutorials.For the 25 to 40% of people that get it. It’s about coaching and motivating everybody to see the need for change and what is in it for them. We realised this required a deep, intelligent response in order to create lasting Adoption.

It meant radically rethinking change - and not just transplanting old methods to an online platform. Our lightbulb moment.
Whatever we did it would have to happen in the cloud.
It would have to be insightful, intelligent, dynamic and powered by the best analytics in the world.
