WHY SHAREPOINT GOVERNANCE IS EVERYBODY’S RESPONSIBILITY (AND PROBLEM)Confessions of a SharePoint Consultant

CALL FOR PROPOSAL: LAVACON 2015 Session Type: Workshop

Session Abstract: SharePoint sometimes gets a bad rap. Organizations have abandoned SharePoint and departments have fought with IT to gain more control. Too often organizations try to adapt themselves around SharePoint instead of trying to adapt SharePoint to their existing corporate and IT governance plan. The process of repairing an organizations credibility and recouping return on investment starts by zeroing in on the root cause of a failed SharePoint project. In my session I discuss real world solutions in which small to large organizations were able to develop a governance plan that worked the way their company worked. I also discuss ways get everyone in your organization involved and excited about SharePoint governance.

Who should attend: Content Strategists, Content Managers and Developers, Documentation Managers
