{{a|tech|}}{{dpn||abstr. n}}The key to a successful “change journey” is to make it ''as short as possible''.
{{a|tech|}}{{dpn||abstr. n}}Of a [[legaltech]] implementation, the putative distance a [[user]] must cover from her ''existing'' set of work habits — that she will have honed, refined and iterated over the excoriating 30-year, well, ''journey'' that represents her career — to create the necessary set of ''new'' habits such that the implementation will work.
 
It should be so transparently obvious it does not need saying, but the modern history of legal technology suggests it’s not, so let us say it: the key to a successful “change journey” is to make it ''as short as possible''. Ideally, the user will not know she has been on a journey at all.
 
Another way of looking at this: any technology that can’t accommodate how users currently behave — that oblige the user to  accommodate the tech, and not vice versa, '' isn’t very good tech''. For [[legaltech]] is meant to be faster, cheaper and reliable than us. It is the unpaid, uncomplaining, eagle-eyed but fundamentally dull articled clerk, there to take the dross away and give us room to work the ineffable magic of which only the higher cortical functions of ''homo sapiens sapiens'' is capable.
