Still Running on Spreadsheets, and Stress? Here’s the Fix.
From Chaos to Control: Face the Fear, Embrace Automation
🧠 Fear of Automation Is Real — and It’s Slowing You Down
For many UK business leaders, automation sounds like a great idea… until it’s time to implement it. You’ve already been through enough “system changes” to know that not every shiny new platform is a silver bullet.
The fear isn’t really about tech — it’s about time, disruption, and dragging your team through yet another uphill battle. Add in the pressure to keep delivering results while juggling admin and managing people? It’s no wonder automation gets pushed to “next quarter.”
✅ Best Practice: Start Small, Win Big
The trick to conquering the fear isn’t to dive headfirst into huge change — it’s to chip away at the chaos. Big wins come from small steps. You don’t need a new department. You need one clear improvement that saves time today.
Here’s where to begin:
Pick a task that’s draining time (e.g. quoting, ordering, invoicing)
Automate that one process — keep it simple
Get the team involved early, and celebrate the time saved
Build momentum gradually with other areas
This approach builds trust, proves value quickly, and gets your people on side.
