To get your team on board with OS upgrades, start by emphasizing the benefits of the changes, such as improved performance, security, and efficiency. Involve them early in the process, addressing their concerns and gathering feedback. Offer training and support to help them feel confident with the new system. Share success stories of previous upgrades to build trust, and maintain open communication throughout the transition, highlighting how the changes align with the team's goals and make their work easier in the long run.

Briefly inform the team of the potential benefits and why the organization wants to make the switch. Ask uncertain individuals if you can meet with them one on one- in person or via video conferencing- to discuss what concerns they have, and to develop a plan of action to mitigate potential risks. Try to make the change plan a collaborative experience and assure team members you'll be available for support issues. You may be the organization IT lead, but they are the expert of their own workflow. Both sides need to be accounted for in all phases of the transition.
