While conducting an interview, you find one of the participants to be unresponsive and quiet. When you draw him out to express his opinion, he explains that he doesn't like the idea of creating a new database
The way they have been doing things has worked for a long time, and he doesn't see a need to change it. Changing it just means more work and it probably won't work as well as the current system. How would you handle such a participant?
Listen to their concerns. They may have legitimate reasons to not trust the new procedures the database may introduce. Try to address the issues, by pointing out the reasons why a new database is needed. Finally, promise to meet with them later to address their concerns in more detail.
