12. Sarah acknowledges that the CRM system itself is only part of the expected positive outcome, and that it will only provide value if the individual partners running the various IT Professional Services Practices actively support it. She understands that some practices leaders may see this as head office interference and as simply a way to cut jobs. To meet these challenges, Sarah wants you to include in your proposal a Change Management and Communication strategy that will lead the various sales leaders in the different practices to actively adopt the system and make the most of it.
