Slowly the IT world seems to be waking up to the fact that installing IT systems is as much about people as it is about technology. In this week's UK edition of Computer Weekly two articles make this point.

And the second article from Daniel Thomas entitled "Change management is crucial to CRM success, says Gartner" starts:
