Resistance to New Technology

I am usually one of the people who lag behind when it comes to new technology, mostly because I don't like to follow fads. Certain technology comes and goes, adding no real value to the lives of those who use it. However, if someone can show me and prove that a technology can be productive, there is no reason for me not to switch. In order for businesses to convince employees to accept changes being made in IT, I think it is important to remember that some people think like this. Somehow quantify the value of the change.

  1. I agree with you here Corbin. While i am not very technologically savvy and i don't go looking for the next technological advancement. I am not opposed to getting the new technology that may enhance my life. I like to make sure a certain technology is here to stay before I decide to buy it. Which is also interesting with change in the business world. While some new technologies are cool and good people will still resist the change and having to learn new processes. Overall it had to prove very beneficial through and through before it will be accepted by everyone.
