SharePoint Implementation Continuum 5. Share Roundtable Hot Topics

SharePoint Governance is more than just a document Importance of
SharePoint governance plan in addition to general IT governance
Balance of collaboration capabilities and their benefits vs
organizational requirements Ensuring the plan evolves with the
business Who creates the plan? Who owns the plan? Who enforces the
plan? Defined roles and responsibilities Making governance part of
the training process Enforcement vs. empowerment approach Sample
governance plan http://spgur.us/IECSPGov 7. #2 Leadership Not
Involved in IA Inability to find information quickly and easily is
one of the biggest frustrations Involve business decision makers on
information architecture design is critical Establish a common
language structure cangreatly improve findability Having a defined
taxonomy strategy and ongoingmanagement of metadata management
Understanding how to tag information correctly Will out-of-the-box
provide sufficient searchcapabilities or is a custom solution
necessary? See IA design guidance http://spgur.us/r2Vpv3 8. #3
Training & Adoption an Afterthought It is common to see IT take
a technology first approach and rollout SharePointwith little
consideration for the user impact Engage the business early on
identify and prioritize business solutions Always remember the
WIIFM user mindset Relevant training approach Process vs technology
focused Support mechanism See training and adoption resources

Management overlooks how broad SharePoint is and relies on existing
personnelwith little expertise to deliver platform and business
solutions Various skillsets are needed not just developerand
or/admin Having a SharePoint business analyst is key 10. #5 Failed
Exec Education & Engagement Common theme among IT departments
is that SharePoint doesnt get enoughexecutive attention and support
Executives want the benefits, but fail to make the investments that
are necessary Lack of understanding of how SharePoint can deliver
business value is the culprit What are you trying to accomplish and
why? What is the value? If it is quantifiable, then half the battle
is won When executives understand the Return portion of the
equation, it is much easierto get them to commit to the Investment
