Microsoft SharePoint can be compared to a gigantic toolbox with its drawers filled with a collection of useful and powerful tools. As SharePoint’s global adoption rate continues to increase, many are finding new and innovative ways to utilize this powerful platform. Despite these efforts, there are core concepts and configuration pillars that must be followed to ensure SharePoint’s success within an organization. Sometimes these drawers are not “unlocked,” in the proper order and its tools are being misused leading to SharePoint’s site proliferation, governance model, support processes, and customizations being rushed into place.

 In this live webcast, Errin O'Connor will provide proven and time tested methodologies that have been implemented at some of the largest organization’s in the U.S. to ensure SharePoint’s “drawers” are unlocked in the correct manner and its overwhelming functionally is being utilized properly. SharePoint itself should not be blamed when these issues arise when, in fact, the methodologies that were utilized in its deployment were not properly defined and executed.
