Demand less change of your requirements. I've talked to a lot of automation consultants and one of the things I keep hearing is how difficult it is to get people to use the tool, like the Noloco portal or your Airtable interfaces or whatever that they have created. Because when you're creating these things, you're not only creating technology, you're also creating new workflows, new way for the whole organization to operate. And that's a heavy lift. And in fact, what's going to happen is a small fraction of the work required is going to be behind the keyboard and a big part of it's going to be in training. I think it is useful to ask whether you're doing a transformation or whether you're just trying to do a patch and improvement. And I think in the latter case, there's a lot of value to be created. If you shrink down and say you're not requiring them to change all of their behaviors, but instead looking to have them be just better.
