Mr Price
So come along to have a sneak at what was shown at TechEd this year. It’s a great list of topics that covers a broad range of concepts and what Microsoft deems important.
SharePoint Success Stories (Cape Town only)
Session 2: SharePoint Baby Steps – Each One Teach One (Naz Parker)
The approach to training and change management is paramount to the success of the solution. There’s a fine line between what business users say they want and understanding their needs. Clear objectives, scope and deliverables must be defined upfront, especially the understanding of the solution’s capabilities, management and ownership. This needs to be taught to people. This is the story of how the Sanlam Group Office business unit, along with IT, ensures its users adopt and get the most out of their SharePoint environment by managing training and defining roles.
-
Managing expectations and setting boundaries

Change champions - each one teach one!
