Who are the Opinion Leaders? 4. Early Wins: 5. Anticipate Resistance : Match the readiness level with support, identify potential opponents and bring them on board or minimize their ability to derail plans, and celebrate short term wins and think about the benefits of the new system. 6. Collaborate Planning : Do we have the right people involved in the selection and implementation process? 7. Scale & Sustainability: If we start with a small group, how will we scale up? If we invest in tools and process, can we sustain the effort? 8. Build in on-going Monitoring /course corrections : Who does What by When, and monitor to make changes as needed.
