The strategy "Enhancing Productivity Through Adobe Assets and Accelerators" aims to boost productivity by leveraging Adobe tools and processes more effectively. Initially, it focuses on identifying and analyzing current workflows, pinpointing repetitive tasks across teams, and evaluating existing Adobe assets. For instance, conducting a workflow analysis helps in understanding user pain points and benchmarking against industry standards to determine high-priority automation areas.
Next, the strategy involves developing custom Adobe tools and accelerators by forming cross-functional teams. This includes using Adobe Developer tools to create and test prototypes that automate repetitive tasks. Regular feedback loops ensure that the tools are refined continuously, and user guides aid in easy adoption.
Lastly, the strategy emphasizes facilitating training and adoption, designing training programs, and creating video tutorials to aid users in understanding new tools. Regular check-ins and feedback mechanisms are established to monitor and improve the strategy's effectiveness.
