Common Mistakes in BBS Implementation

• Lack of Management Support: Without strong support from management, a BBS system is unlikely to be successful. It's crucial to gain buy-in from all levels of management before implementing a BBS system.
• Insufficient Training: Training is a critical component of any BBS system. Without proper training, employees may not fully understand the system or how to use it effectively.
• Poor Communication: Communication is key in the implementation of a BBS system. All employees should be kept informed about the system, its purpose, and their roles in it.
