		<description>I&#039;d submit that:
1.  The proper questions/due diligence are rarely applied to cut through sales person fluff and...
2. Culture change is simply ignored as though it will automatically happen.....&quot;just because we have a new solution&quot;.

These elements lead to false perceptions...then utter disappointment...then lack of confidence...then regret...then anger...then...

REPEAT.

I wrote an ebook that touches on this issue Steve.  If you&#039;re interested in taking a 10 minute read, email me.  I&#039;m not hunting for link traffic....I just can&#039;t locate an email address to contact you directly.  Sorry.</description>
