EXECUTIVE SUMMARY (CONTINUED)
Managing Change Across the Lifecycle:Change-related IT communications
have best impact if delivered by influential, tech-savvy and familiar, though
not necessarily senior, figures. Estimate the degree of impact of new
technologies and support models on different stakeholder segments andcreate personalized communications to obtain their buy-in. Groom local
champions to reinforce communications within respective BUs or functions. Defining Governance:Organizations that disallow use of personally owned
devices or smartphones because of security risks miss critical opportunities
to drive business growth through employee productivity. Build a mutual
understanding of risks with employees and business partners, and share the
responsibility for mitigation through cross-functional working groups and
easy-to-understand policies.
Managing an Employee Computing Service
Supporting Employee Technologies:Proliferating complexity in the portfolio
can lead to a rise in volume and complexity of service desk requests.Stratify the level of support for non-standard devices to rationalize costs,
while preserving service quality for the majority who use standard devices.
Manage costs down further by building effective self-service channels, and
enhance quality by coaching service desk personnel to tailor their responses
to employee personalities. Measuring Impact on Productivity:Traditional cost and quality KPIs can
help manage internal operations but do not tie to business outcomes unless
supplemented with the employees perspective. Use employee-centric
metrics to measure not simply technology performance, but effectiveness
of capabilities like collaboration and mobility. The right metrics also help
estimate the opportunity cost of not enabling technology capabilities thatdrive employee productivity.
Making Service Improvements:Given the volatile nature of todays work
environment, service models for employee computing will continue to
evolve over the next few years. Infrastructure should be able to mature its
support for the growing use of mobile technologies, personal technologies,collaboration and analytic tools. Create a workforce strategy to equip
employee-facing staff with skills to troubleshoot increasingly complex issues.

EMPLOYEE COMPUTING WORKFLOW MAPWorkflow Stage I. Planning an Employee Computing Service II. Building an Employee Computing Service III. Managing an Employee Computing Service
Workflow Steps
& Challenges/
Pitfalls
1. Understanding Employee Needs
How are technology demand patterns changing? What employee devices and technologies inflect employee productivit y? What are reliable information sources to track evolving employee needs? How are peer organizations responding to evolving employee needs?
Desired Outcome:
To identify the set of employee computing technologies and capabilities that enable true
employee productivity.
Challenges/Pitfalls: Identifying employee needs is often neglected due to effort-intensive nature of the
requirements gathering process. Infrastructure often does not have a clear line of communication with employees across the
enterprise. The fast pace of change in work patterns and rapidly evolving technology space makes it hard
to identify true drivers of employee productivity, and separate the needs from the wants.
4. Building a Service Kernel for Provisioning
How do we facilitate seamless provisioning of new employee technologies? How do we deploy the right technologies at the right time to best create productivity
advantages for employees? How do we enable effective self-provisioning of employee technologies? What are the qualities of a user-intuitive employee services catalog?
Desired Outcome:
To ensure the right set of standard technologies are deployed broadly, from which employees
have the ability to self-provision a sub-set customized to their needs.
Challenges/Pitfalls: It is hard to balance benefits of standardization with cost of provisioning tailored to different
employee segments. Piloting of new employee technologies is hard as infrastructure must test true-to-life use cases
without disrupting employee workflows. Service catalogs need to be highly intuitive, easy to understand, and transparent about
performance and support expectations.
7. Supporting Employee Technologies
How do we upgrade support to respond to proliferation of new technologies? How do we support employees at varying levels of technological maturity? How do we support mobile employees via multiple channels (web, call email)? How to manage increase in volume and complexity of helpdesk ti ckets? How to train helpdesk staff to deal with the changing nature of requests?
Desired Outcome:
To build a support model that can handle increased volume and complexity of requests, with focus
on consumerization and mobility.
Challenges/Pitfalls: It is hard to upgrade helpdesk skill-set to keep up with the rapid pace of change in technology.
Complexity of tickets is rising employees need less help with technology and more advice on
how to be productive at their jobs. It is hard to manage helpdesk costs while continuing to offer high quality support to a growing
portfolio of technologies. Organizations lack innovative approaches to build and maintain knowledge management
systems for the helpdesk.
2. Segmenting the Workforce
Which segmentation factors best describe evolving employee needs? What is the right level of granularity for segmenting the workforce? How does segmentation help prioritize new technology investments?
How do we identify early adopters to help pilot new employee technologies?
Desired Outcome:
To prioritize specific employee segments or needs to in turn prioritize or line up new employee
technology investments.
Challenges/Pitfalls: With increasing diversity of needs it is hard to meet all using a one-size-fits-all approach. Investments are often misguided if theyre not prioritized by criticality of need across different
employee segments. Work patterns are changing too rapidly for a static segmentation model to stay relevant and
accurately inform technology investments.
5. Managing Change Across the Lifecycle
How do we accelerate employee adoption of new technology implementations? How do we obtain buy-in from all impacted stakeholder segments? How much effort should be i nvested in executing a change management program?
Desired Outcome:
To build an effective change management strategy that ensures success of new employee
technology deployments.
Challenges/Pitfalls: All deployments require active awareness, communication, and training to inflect employee
adoption.
It is hard to achieve business buy-in because stakeholders often have different visions foremployee computing.
Infrastructure doesnt have a direct channel of communication to employees to inflect
absorption.
8. Measuring Impact on Productivity
How to measure productivity as enabled by employee computing service? What new metrics should we report on to demonstrate impact on productivity? Do new metrics replace or supplement traditional metrics for employee computing?
What resources (tools/people) are required to measure and report productivity?
Desired Outcome:
To measure and demonstrate the impact of employee computing servi ces on employee productivity
and business growth.
Challenges/Pitfalls:
Productivity is subjective and is hard to quantify. Definition differs across functions, teams, androles so it is hard to define a standard set of metrics.
It is hard to differentiate technology enabled-productivity from overall employee productivity. A cultural shift is required as Infrastructure staff has traditionally not been held accountable for
employee productivity. Difficult to create meaningful reporting without integration with other traditional infrastructure
reporting.
3. Roadmapping and Investment Planning
How do we allocate the right level of investment to each employee capability? What is the cost of integrating new technologies into the existing technology portfolio? How do we leverage roadmaps to collaborate with partners like Apps and Security for new
technology implementations? How do we build effective roadmaps to match the rapid pace of change in technology and
employee demand?
Desired Outcome:
To build/revise the roadmap for employee computing in line with employee capabilities, and right-
size the total cost, effort and timeline for each initiative.
Challenges/Pitfalls: Success of investments in new employee technologies is hard to measure and therefore easily
misguided. Introducing new employee technology to the portfolio also impacts cost and complexity in
other infrastructure areas like the service desk. Technology is changing so rapidly that it is hard to roadmap investments reliably. By the time it
gets deployed, technology demands shift again.
6. Dening Governance
What roles, responsibilities and authorities are associated with employee computing? How do we identify and engage key IT and business stakeholders in governance? What policies help enforce confidentiality, security and regulatory compliance? How do we measure effectiveness of governance policies?
Desired Outcome:
To implement policies and controls that assigns the shared responsibility for risk management and
compliance with employees, IT and business partners.
Challenges/Pitfalls: There is usually no single point of ownership or accountability within the business for employee
capabilities like mobility and consumerization. Given the heterogeneity of employee needs, it is hard to enforce standardized policies across
the enterprise.
There is low clarity in division of responsibility between Infra and Security as it relates to newemployee capabilities like mobility and consumerization.
Additional governance responsibilities create overhead for infrastructure staff in addition to
their existing role commitments.
9. Making Service Improvements
What new org models are required to enable employee computing services? What new skills and roles are required for provisioning and supporting employee technologies? What is the infrastructure workforce strategy for the new work environment?
Desired Outcome:
To implement policies and controls that assigns the shared responsibility for risk management and
compliance with employees, IT and business partners.
Challenges/Pitfalls: It is difficult to coach infrastructure staff to think in terms of employee productivity needs and
not technologies.
There is ambiguity on how to align an employee computing services with existing org modelsgiven the convergence of technology in cloud and mobility.
It is unclear what future skills and roles will be needed to provision evolving employee
productivity needs. There will be resistance to change to the new employee computing services model.

achieve optimal technology-
enabled productivity.
While mobile application
access is a significant
opportunity for
improvement, nearly
one-half of heavy mobile
application users believe
IT is effectively providingaccess.
1 The maximum impact on Technology-Enabled Productivity was calculated by comparing two statistical estimates: the predicted impact when anemployee scores IT effectiveness relatively high on delivering a capability and the predicted impact when an employee scores IT effectiveness low ondelivering a capability. The impact of IT effectiveness on each capability is modeled using several multivariate regressions with controls.
2 Importance of capability across the employee base represents the percentage of respondents who indicated that the capability is highly important orcritical to their work productivity.
3 Opportunity for IT to Improve Effectiveness reflects the extent to which employees indicate that their employer is effective at formally deliveringcapability.

WHY CANT IT BE DONE WITHOUT MOBILE?
Sabre Holdings Questionnaires for Business and Employees
Business Sponsor Questionnaire
1. What are you trying to do?
We want to offer a solution to travelers that helps
them manage their travel throughout the trip.
2. Why cant you achieve this business objective
without mobile?
While travelers are in-trip, it is often difficult to
communicate with them.
3. What is the pain point?
Travelers typically think of trip management
applications when they are looking for flightstatus or during delays. We want to expand our
engagement by making life easier for in-trip
travelers.
4. To what degree are you changing an existing
business process?
The travel lifecycle has always had a gap in the
in-trip phase. To move a product or service
into this phase requires a change as well as new
approaches and data.
Use Case 3: Employee
1. Who are you as a potential user? What is your role?
A road trip traveler
Use Case 2: Employee
1. Who are you as a potential user? What is your role?
A business traveler
Use Case 1: Employee
1. Who are you as a potential user? What is your role?
A leisure traveler
2. What do you need to accomplish?
While in the middle of my trip, I need to know my
hotels amenities and what other events/activities
may be available.
3. Why do you need to do that?
I usually find these items in advance of the trip,
but if I fail to do that, I have difficulty finding the
information.
4. Why cant you accomplish this without mobile
devices? How have you tried to resolve this
need in the past?While in-trip, access to a PC can be extremely
difficult. Calling for information has proven hit or
miss.

I. Identify Role Objectives
Purpose of session:
Today Id like to focus on what you consider your most critical responsibilities, tasks or
measures of success in your job. In other words, if you had to give someone a high-level
overview of the top 10 things you have to get done in your job to be successful (or not
get fired!), what would they be? How would you define your job?
1. What do you spend most of your time on? What task(s) do you focus on most frequently?
2. What is the most difficult task you encounter in your job?
3. How do you evaluate success?
Tip: If the employee has a hard time getting started, provide them with an example
of a job objective from a prior interview, e.g., one of the key responsibilities for a New
Business Development Junior Executive would be to identify new opportunit ies to find
new clients.
For each role objective, follow up with the questions below (if relevant) to really
understand what the role is trying to accomplish and what problems they might have
with accomplishing it:
4. Describe why you consider this is a primary or critical responsibility, task, or measure
of success.
5. Could you provide an example of a time when you had difficulty accomplishing it?
Note: The aim is to try and get a use case.
6. Could you explain what makes it (or parts of it) challenging, inconvenient,
or frustrating?
7. What makes it time-consuming?
8. What makes this task go off trackwhat could make it go wrong, or how could you
be distracted from accomplishing it successfully?
9. How are you evaluated on it?
10. How could it be accomplished more efficiently or productively?
11. What solutions are you currently using today? Are they free or fee-based? If so, how
much do they cost? What works and doesnt work about what youre using today?
Objectives
1. Understand and validate desired outcomes to be done in the role (identify role objectives).
2. Document employee productivity roadblocks and their ties to productivity (identify problem statements).
II. Identify Problem Statements
Purpose of session:
Today Id like to take a step back and have an open discussion about problems or
challenges you face in your area of professional expertise. I want to provide you with the
opportunity to talk about any problems or issues you have, regardless of whether theyre
related to the solutions Applications could not provide.
Tip: For each problem, please follow up with the questions below (if relevant) to really
understand what the challenge is and what the employee is trying to accomplish when
he or she encounters this problem.
12. Could you please describe the problem?
Note: The aim is to try and get a use case around the problem.
13. What are you trying to accomplish when you encounter this problem?
14. Why is it critical to solve this problem?
15. What solutions are you currently using today? Are they free or fee-based? If so, how
much do they cost? What works and doesnt work about what youre using today?
16. Are you trying to minimize or increase the aspect of time, frequency, likelihood
or XX amount of this problem?
Tip: It is unlikely the employee will articulate what amount of the problem they
would like to minimize or increase. You may have to restate the problem back to them
to get clarification.
Answers from these questions should
reveal more granular roadblocks, which
should provide the basis and drive a
problem statement discussion.
The answer from this
question should map
the problem to a role
objective.

SEGMENTING THE WORKFORCE
Employee Segmentation Models
Develop segmentation criteria based on employee work styles and attitudes
toward technology.
Fords Collaboration Personas 33
Ford creates personas based on employee attitudes toward technology
and workflow needs to learn about their challenges and target services
and communications. Employees can self-select more than one of the
five collaboration personas based on their needs which customizes their
engagement with IT accordingly.
P&Gs Adoption-Based Segmentation 34
P&G segments knowledge workers based on their collaboration adoption
characteristics. Adoption-based segmentation helps connect the provisioning
of mobility tools with employee needs, target tools promotion, and estimate
