Recovery & Rollback & Such

Sunday, April 17, 2005  

An article in Datamation points out the importance of recovery and rollback in change management. This is a topic near and dear to my heart. My department's story is one of growth over the last five years; growth in responsibilities and maturity. The maturity angle is still catching up. It can be difficult to do this with a group that wants to live in the cowboy days of yesteryear. The new hires get it, the "old guys" are still adapting. I try the "carrot & stick" approach with the occasional whiner holdout complaining about how this makes them more unproductive so they can't get as much work done. Wah.
