ERP Utilization Series: Business Value Realization
04:10 How would you define ERP?
06:37 Suppose you are leading a kickoff meeting for an organization that is just starting an ERP implementation. How would you describe for them “success” in terms of an ERP organizational change?
09:52 How would you describe your general understanding of ERP implementation success rates in the field, based on your own work, anecdotal evidence of others and your research?
13:32 From your experience implementing ERP, what would you say are the most critical aspects of ERP Implementation Project Management?
18:15 Why do you think many ERP projects fail to deliver on expectations? There have obviously been countless papers written highlighting all sorts of reasons for ERP failure.
21:05 I know that this is a loaded question, but what role does the overall corporate culture play in ERP organizational change and why?
23:44 What challenges do you most often face as you implement ERP?
26:18 What about training and learning & development (L&D) in the organization? To what extent do you suggest and encourage opportunities for training and learning? Before implementation? During? Post?
31:18 When you go through an ERP organizational change process, are there even any conflicts? Or is it more typical that every is “kumbaya”?
34:32 What leadership styles, or attributes, would you say were most prevalent during the best of your ERP implementation experiences?
39:32 You stated in a LI post that “An ERP project manager is a necessary evil. An ERP project leader is an influencer and success generator.”. Tell our listeners more.
41:57 “I have a go-live coming up soon and the customer executive asked me how I felt about our readiness for go-live. I said “Technically, I am not concerned. Functionally, I’m a little concerned and emotionally I am “$%#****!””. 7 functions (modules) across 13 countries. God help me for being an empathic project manager.”
47:14 If you were going to give advice to an organization preparing for an ERP implementation what little golden nugget would you like to leave our listeners?
