Interesting question, indeed debatable.
For an organization to adopt an automation strategy is a very big change in its technology ideology. And in my opinion, any change, big or small requires a considerable amount of convincing to be adopted. It starts with a small POC which gives a proof point on the profits and benefits from the change and if this is not something that gives a good ROI then the change is something that is not viable for the organization. In my experience, I have seen a small organization with limited funds investing a good deal in automation as a short POC of 7-8 months gave them a good starting point on the benefits, whereas a big organization with a big team and stable investments into the POC have not been able to give a baseline to the profits for about 5 years now and hence are still resistant to start their automation journey. With a compact, well-driven POC it is not difficult to give proof points on the profits and benefits of an automation journey. And who wouldn't want to drive a change that can bring in a lot of profits and benefits for the company.

As more and more industry experts have said, automation is becoming an increasingly strategic priority for businesses. Leaders and executives are looking to accelerate growth and improve operations and deliver improved employee engagement, enhanced customer experience and increased profits. "They say you can't manage what you don't measure" and Intelligent Automation has not only not accelerated the race to digital, but it also powered a rush to the cloud to respond more dynamically to demand changes for an aggressive digital transformation approach to ensure your standings right ahead of the curve and investing at right place, people, processes and technology at the right time with regards to where this digital world with seamless possibilities is leading automation to.
its important to know about the stuffs you are advocating/educating about you must know where world sits with these and how much they are being benefited by exploding Intelligent automation as their core in the ecosystem to scale technology's ability to interact aggressively, accurately and deliver results.
I would start my presentation with few facts to slay my boss and he should know these -
& I will address - If we want to be more aggressive in scaling intelligent automation in our organisation, we would need to be willing to take risks and make bold moves. We can't be afraid to challenge the status quo and push for change.
We need to see this as a Team to be exactly at a place where we stand right head to head in the digital competition with aggressive yet practical deeds, its important to learn from other's mistakes and very much important indeed to know your competitors/where this world is heading to, with digital transformations.
Additionally,
I hope by now he/she would be 50% convinced or at least would have their heads tuning to these thoughts.

Below points I would like to suggest anyone who needs to deal with any organization that is hesitant to invest in Intelligent Automation:
>>Before we get into any promotional offerings to the business, we should arrange a meeting with executives along with the business wing and we'll start understanding their concerns, are they concerned about the cost, complexity or any other technicalities and try to answer them. I believe not all the members are at the same level of resistance to technology and the answers we give them would definitely spark an internal debate within their teams and we can expect a fruitful result.
>>As per my experience most of the organisations are still not clear when it comes to fully understand the actual benefits of implementing intelligent automation in their digital journey. We should be very good at explaining them about the reaping benefits of it. Don't overpromise and set realistic expectations.
>>When you get positive sense. then show the few examples how other similar organisations have successfully implemented intelligent automation and are now enjoying the benefits of stable ROI. Be honest, don't just show them the high-altitude numbers.
>>If everything goes well, we should definitely get an ask to show them an POC. and here we go.

@Michael Shillingford - Thanks for the valuable thoughts - Implementing "Intelligent Automation" can be hell of a roller coaster ride sometimes but with right set of tools and mindset it should be all gravy in sometime and this journey for sure would offer an iterative learning with a Fail-Forward and Fall Forward approach all the time, eventually getting to a place where we all would have wanted to be. They say - It's better to burn out at right times than fade away and I second that !
