Managing conflicts between IT and sales leaders in ERP projects: How will you navigate the power struggles?
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) projects are complex and require the seamless collaboration of various departments, notably IT and sales. However, conflicts often arise between IT and sales leaders due to differing priorities and perspectives. IT leaders focus on the technical aspects and system stability, while sales leaders prioritize customer needs and market responsiveness. These divergent goals can lead to power struggles that, if not managed effectively, can derail an ERP project. Navigating these conflicts requires understanding, communication, and a strategy that aligns both departments towards the common goal of a successful ERP implementation.
