Change Management: Don’t Cook a Thanksgiving Feast You Never Eat
Posted on: November 20, 2025 | By: Alexa Leitner | QAD Financials|QAD Business Process
Every year, millions of people prepare an elaborate Thanksgiving dinner; hours of planning, shopping, chopping, roasting, stirring. The table is set, the turkey is golden, the sides are perfect…and then imagine everyone getting up and leaving before taking a single bite.
Ridiculous, right?
Yet this is exactly what happens in organizations that invest heavily in new systems, processes, or technologies but neglect Change Management. They prepare the “feast”, the software selection, the implementation, the configurations, the integrations, but forget the most important part: actually eating the meal. In business terms, that means user adoption, behavior change, and ultimately ROI.
Thanksgiving dinner isn’t just about the cooking; it’s about the experience. The laughter, the gathering, the sharing, the traditions. Similarly, a successful transformation isn’t just about implementing a tool, it’s about how people use it together to work smarter, faster, and better.
Skipping Change Management is like skipping the dinner portion of Thanksgiving. You’ve invested the time and money, but you’ll never enjoy the payoff.
To truly “eat the meal,” organizations must:
1. Set the table thoughtfully
Communicate early and often. Let people know what’s coming, why it matters, and how it affects them.
2. Invite everyone to the table
Involve end users, not just leadership and project teams. Adoption grows when people feel included.
3. Serve the right portions
Provide training that is digestible, role-based, and timed to when people need it, not all at once.
4. Taste, adjust, and refine
Just like seasoning a dish, take feedback seriously. Iterate to ensure tools fit the way people actually work.
5. Celebrate the meal
Acknowledge wins, reinforce behaviors, and show the business impact.
If you want ROI, you can’t stop at the cooking. Enjoy the feast. Make Change Management your Thanksgiving tradition, and make sure everyone gets a seat at the table.
