I recently interviewed 25 IT admins for our new expert series. Here are my first 10 takeaway: 1. Find All Assets Uncover all SaaS apps and devices as quickly as possible. You can only manage what you know exists. 2. Devices: Keep It Simple Standardize devices to secure better vendor discounts and avoid support headaches. 3. Documentation is King Document everything as you go. This will save you time on recurring support requests and onboarding new colleagues. 4. Empower Employees Through Self-Service Don’t be the bottleneck. Your goal is to enable employees to help themselves, whether it’s simple support requests, automated access management, or fully connected SaaS systems. 5. Onboarding is Easy, Offboarding is Hard Employees will complain if they lack access, but they won’t notify you if they retain access after leaving. 6. Starting from scratch can be a game changer IT admins who start from scratch have the advantage of setting up automation across systems more easily. Starting in an organization with existing processes and tools can bog you down 7. Show your Worth and Gain Support IT admins are often seen as a support function, but gaining internal support comes from proving you accelerate, not hinder, other teams. 8. Who Leads IT can Make or Break you IT can fall under Finance, HR, Tech, or Ops, and your role will vary depending on the department’s focus. Understand who you work for and align with their goals. 9. Decentralized vs. Centralized IT Early-stage companies often manage SaaS apps decentrally. For this to work, you need an effective system for tracking access. 10. COVID Changed How IT Works COVID and the shift to remote/hybrid work have drastically impacted IT operations, increasing the need for self-service support and zero-touch deployments. Excited to release the first post in a few weeks. Thanks to all participants, it was lots of fun!

You posted a role. You got 100's, maybe 1000's of resumes. But did you get the right person? I see this all the time. A SaaS client had recently implemented Workday Adaptive Insights. The team was new to Adaptive; no one had used it before. They weren't getting the ROI they expected from Adaptive. They knew it could improve their forecasts of headcount and payroll costs. When a backfill role opened on the team, they posted the job. They got 1000's of resumes since it was a remote FP&A role. While they got lots of applicants, few had adaptive experience. None had done ground-up adaptive modeling. We stepped in to assist their internal recruiter as a sourcing arm. We mapped the market. Identified companies utilizing Adaptive. Narrowed in on FP&A analysts at those SaaS firms. We sourced, engaged, and interviewed many. Found 2 who had done the heavy lifting of ground-up adaptive modeling. Who had stories of the payoff their orgs saw from Adaptive. In a week of the intro, we had candidates interviewed and an offer accepted. Three months later, the team is thriving with Adaptive.

I wish more companies would recognize this. Of course there are people who prefer being in an office environment and there is still a need for traditional work culture. But for a large number of people, especially after Covid proved people could be productive at home, being in an office is highly unappealing. When you factor in the time it takes to get to and from work, the eating out, clothing expenses, distractions in the office, and cost to the business to maintain office space, remote makes more sense to me. Personally, when I work from home, I work more hours and am much more productive. I'm happier being home and not spending 2-3 hours a day in the car. For me, even though I worked more hours, it felt like such a better work-life balance. I could take a break and talk to my son for 10 minutes when he needed me. I could take the dog out and get 5 minutes of sunshine. 99% of our meetings are on Teams or Zoom - why do I need to drive in to an office when that clearly can be done from home? I don't see this issue going away and it will be interesting to see how long companies start to realize how important time is to people - even over money.

4TH QUARTER DELIVERY. ????You are worried. You are pushing the team members and are running into roadblocks. PTO and Holidays will soon enter the picture. Can you deliver or do you need to delay all or part of the implementation? ??Often, an objective assessment can be just what you need to uncover issues and roadblocks, assess cost overruns, mitigate risks, validate and define a go-forward plan for a successful delivery. An outside resource can be the difference in determining what can and cannot be delivered by 12/31 (or earlier). ???? Happy to discuss how I can help you. Reasonable rates - hourly, project-based or fixed bid. ?? Project management is building relationships. ?? Project management is risk management. ??

A Discussion on the Return-to-Office Mandate! The recent comments from the CEO of AWS regarding the return-to-office policy have sparked important conversations among employees. He mentioned that those unhappy with this mandate could explore other job opportunities. Here are some key points to consider in my opinion on this statement: ?? Different Work Preferences: Many employees have found that they perform better in remote or hybrid environments. This flexibility can lead to increased productivity and job satisfaction. ?? Importance of Work-Life Balance: Factors such as long commutes and the need for more family time significantly affect how employees feel about their work environments. ?? Recognizing Employee Commitment: E Employees invest considerable time and effort into their roles. It is important for leadership to acknowledge this dedication and engage in discussions about work preferences. ?? Choice in the Job Market: Talented individuals have options in today’s job market. Companies that respect employee needs and offer flexible work arrangements are likely to attract and retain skilled professionals. As we move forward, it is essential to create a workplace that values both collaboration and the diverse needs of employees. Consider what works best for you, and seek a company that aligns with your values and goals.

Are big businesses using 5-day return to the office policies as a back-door restructuring mechanism? We've seen some big players playing the 5-day return to office card in recent months ?? AWS is the latest business to release sweeping, company wide policy mandating 5 days back in the office. But if we're honest there's no reasonable logic to it A global company... Selling cloud solutions so people can work from anywhere... Who's value has increased 118% since 2022, a time where most of their team worked remotely ?? My cynical take on it? Key decision makers in these businesses must know that a return to 5 days per week in the office will lead to high staff turn-over. Heck... I bet they even have an exact number of anticipated leavers over the next 3 months because of it. Is it just me that thinks this is a play to force people out, intentionally reducing head-count and removing the need (and cost) of rolling out redundancies? Could I be right?

Company: We're implementing return to office & need you to relocate 2,867 miles to work 3 days a week in office. Sr FP&A Analyst: Okay 2 weeks later.... Sr FP&A Analyst: I have an offer from a remote first company for a Sr FP&A role. I wish I could stay here but I can't relocate and need to take this remote role. Company: We can make an exception for you Earlier this year, I was working with a sharp FP&A candidate. He had a track record of promotions. Had led a workday adaptive implementation. Leading a team of 2 analysts. He wasn’t unhappy in his current role – there were still growth opportunities. So... why was he talking to me? His company was implementing a return to office plan. He was being told he needed to move from Philadelphia, PA to Vancouver, WA. He needed to work in office 3 days a week with the finance team. Working in the local office was not enough. He was looking for remote opportunities. He interviewed with my client, got an offer for a remote role. He said he was excited. But when he didn't verbally accept the offer within 24 hours, my recruiter gut told me something was off. Three days later, he let me know he was staying put. His had made an exception – he could stay remote after all. I can't help but wonder how often this is happening. Are companies willing to change their return-to-office policies to keep top performers? How does that change team dynamics when one person gets to stay remote? And the bigger question... will that role still be remote in 6 months, or is this just a quick fix?
