Letโ€™s face it. Most people struggle to define success.


Some examples:
- I want good insights from my systems
- I donโ€™t want a siloed experience
- My inventory is off. Get it right



Do you see the issues with them?

Yes, they donโ€™t follow the SMART framework.



S = Specific, M = Measurable, A = Attainable, R = Realistic, T = Timely.


Letโ€™s analyze each.

- Is it specific? Probably not.
- Measurable? What are you measuring here again?
- Attainable? When you canโ€™t define the finish line, you wonโ€™t ever finish.
- Realistic? Whatโ€™s good again?
- Timely? I will get to it when I can.

- Do you have a budget to get it right?

When it comes to expectations of success from digital transformation initiatives, itโ€™s garbage in, garbage out.


So make sure you are not feeding garbage to your project and expecting wonders.


Anything else to include?
