SharePoint Saturday @ Firenze - My speaking session about Governance and how to automate business processes for a SharePoint Platform For many years we've been told that SharePoint is not easily governable. Because of this, IT departments have often chosen to use restriction as the main method of controlling SharePoint platforms. In this session, we will demystify the concept of governance. We will share how to redefine governance as a global agreement between all members of an organization that allows business needs and technology requirements to align in the form of SharePoint as a Service. By offering SharePoint as a Service, your organization can not only transform unstructured business processes into managed services offered to the end user, but also guarantee compliance with organizational policies through automation
