would change as a result of this global event.
Due to the fact that our team members are dispersed around
the globe, they work at various hours of the day, and they
perform diverse responsibilities, we have had to cope with a
variety of problems.
They have lost a lot of sales as a result of their
disorganization, but it is also having an impact on their
morale and energy levels. They frequently start the day with
over 100 emails from team members who are in different
time zones, and they risk losing a whole day because of poor
file sharing communication.
I made the decision to adopt a new system with the intention
of streamlining operations, getting rid of unnecessary emails
and files, and most significantly, bringing our international
workforce together.

What are the timeframes?  Inefficiencies and lost sales due to offline files and
excessive emails.
 Communication gaps and delays caused by working
across different time zones.
 Lack of centralized information and resource repository.

b. Demoralized and Overstressed Team:


 Overwhelming number of emails and ineffective
communication methods.
 Difficulty in tracking progress and coordinating tasks.
 Low team morale and decreased productivity.

System Users:
All staff members across different teams and locations,
including development, manufacturing, operations,
marketing, sales, and tech support.
Initially, the system will be rolled out to the current staff of
approximately 10 users. However, it should also be scalable
to accommodate future growth and expansion of the
organization.

System Rollout:
 Conduct a comprehensive training program for all staff
members on how to effectively use the new system.
 Create user guides, manuals, and video tutorials to support
the implementation.
 Assign a project manager or implementation team to
oversee the rollout process and provide ongoing support.
 Encourage feedback and address any issues or challenges
that arise during the rollout phase.
 Gradually transition from existing communication tools
(email, WhatsApp) to the new system.
 Establish guidelines and best practices for system usage
and ensure compliance among staff members.

Timeframes:
Define a realistic timeline for the system implementation,
considering training, customization, and testing. Start with a
pilot phase to gather feedback and fine-tune the system based
on user needs and preferences. Aim to complete the full
rollout within a reasonable timeframe, considering the size of
the organization and its current workload.

taken by the firm. When preparing training sessions and
related resources for program execution (facilities,
equipment, construct questionnaire procedure, etc.),
employee engagement and learning KPI targets should be
considered. The training program is then publicly
established, promoted, and implemented. Participants'
progress should be constantly checked as part of training.

As noted in the preceding section, the training program


should be monitored on a regular basis. This program
should be assessed to see whether it was successful in
meeting its training objectives. To assess the success of the
program and the teacher, as well as the acquisition of
information or skills, all stakeholders should be consulted.
By reviewing this input in combination with an employee
performance assessment, the business may discover any
program shortcomings. If the goals or expectations are not
reached, the training program or action plan might be
modified. An effective training process proves its worth
when it is founded on the correct sort of feedback and
documented employee experiences that allow the training to
be tailored to your specific needs.

After deleting the file from the shared folder, I work on it


on my desktop. When I'm finished, I publish it to the server,
so it's exactly like working on my desktop.

User 3

I can understand how it should be simpler than what I'm


used to, but that doesn't always happen. With the old
approach, I would get a file to work on, complete it, and
then give it back to my boss. I have no idea who did what,
and I have no idea why. In addition, there are occasions
when I am unable to find a file at all.

User 4

However, I've discovered that even after looking for certain


files, they aren't always present. It's always there the next
day, but not always when I seek for it.

can also be used to detect knowledge gaps. Managers and
supervisors should take fast action if a staff member reveals

some type of training.
As a result of employee complaints, the following three
training sessions were held:

Learn how the system works so that users may begin with
day-to-day chores. Once this is completed, peer-based,

the last step, informal training should be provided to
transfer any tacit understanding of the system's features and
functionalities.
Formal training:
Hold a training session where all questions and answers are
answered to ensure that the employee has the skills and
knowledge required to run the system. Before moving on to
the next topic, formative tests can be utilized to assist

Informal training:
Assign the new employee to a more experienced co-worker
who will assist them in learning the ropes on the job. This is
an excellent solution for organizations if the system is only
used on a daily basis rather than minute by minute.
