Anybody have any good articles, blogs or books for IT Admins trying to keep employees up with technology or good ways to push employees to utilize technology? Anything that an Admin can send out in a newsletter so users may be able to see it our way a little, or understand why we keep pushing for changes? We claim to be a company that keeps up with technology, and we've done a pretty good job, but some of us feel like we are getting behind. It doesn't help that the average age of our company is 54 (I remember right)....
I've got issues with a few people and departments that hate any kind of change (that's nothing new), but a couple departments we could take the work out of creating 100s of excel docs with a single program. They don't even want to discuss it, and they are starting to hold us up. (We need to upgrade some servers and get rid of XP before support is dropped for them. They think we can keep these servers and PCs forever...)
Or any suggestions would be helpful too... just wanted to start a discussion from this and maybe others will have ideas and more people than just me will learn something new...
