Summary

As companies navigate the shift from traditional performance monitoring to achieving end-to-end observability, they must manage organizational change and address the pain points associated with this transition. Observability requires IT leaders to communicate the "why" behind the need for change, establish clear objectives, and hold people accountable for meeting those objectives. To motivate staff, managers should focus on the customer experience, ease of use, and acknowledge trade-offs, ensuring that the benefits of observability outweigh the costs of change. By understanding these key factors, IT teams can make a smoother transition to full-stack observability and improve their ability to deliver exceptional user experiences.
