Question:
What is the most valuable thing in your Salesforce org?
30. #CD23 @CzechDreamin
How to determine the adoption level?
Ask these questions:
• Is senior management a sponsor of Process and Tooling?
• Is documentation and training ready?
• Do the tools support the processes?
• Do the tools support the goals?
• Data quality. Does it get better over time?
• Are the users happy with the tooling?
• Are users supported? (By key-users, Run, Change managers etc)
• Does everyone have the right skills?
