SPSJHB2012 19 May Tracy van der Schyff
Presentation for SharePoint Saturday JHB in May 2012 - about ISO / Compliance - how to take the "fear" out of it and do it easier.
Information Management using ISO Principles
SPSCPT Sept 2012
How to Empower & Inspire users in SharePoint with UI’s that’s different AND serves multiple purposes.
The Missing Link SPSCPT 2013
SharePoint has evolved to such an extent that end users are now capable of developing solutions themselves. However – this leaves a gap in the “food chain”. Where did all the BA’s go – and who’s getting the users up to scratch? It’s easy to ‘build’ SharePoint solutions – but are they building it right?
In this session I'll show you why it's important to spend 80% of your time on the Design and only 20% on the Build – and how this will affect your system adoption.

MX: Managing Experience | Day 2 - Designing Delivery: A Unified Approach to D...
The digital service economy demands the ability to create coherent user experiences while achieving end-to-end agility and efficiency. The ability to deliver them together requires seamless system, process, and organizational design. Companies need a unified approach to design and operations that centers the entire organization around helping customers achieve their goals.
This workshop teaches participants how to connect user-centered design to the entire service delivery lifecycle. It introduces a holistic approach that interconnects marketing, design, development, and operations into a circular design/operations loop. Through talks, discussions, and guided exercises, participants learn how to improve both customer satisfaction and operational effectiveness by:
-designing for service, not just software
-minimizing latency and maximizing feedback throughout the organization
-designing for failure and operating to learn
-using operations as input to design
Understanding Lean IT
Benefits of Lean IT and it's importance.
The world is a merry-go-round and you can't get off. Customers are becoming more demanding, markets are becoming more customised, and product life-cycles that are getting shorter are just a few of the reasons why Lean could be important to you. As the demands on our processes increase they evolve and adapt accordingly which often results in processes that end up inefficient and wasteful. Lean is about challenging the way things are done and opening our eyes to that waste and inefficiency. The environment in which an organization operates will continue to change; Lean can help organizations meet the challenge.
Lean can provide an organization with a clear competitive advantage since the correct application of the Lean principles will realise substantial benefits that include:
- Greater productivity
- Greater throughput
- Improved quality
- Reduced cycle times
- Less fire-fighting
- Smoother operation
- Reduced operating costs

The Lean Enterprise
These are the slides from a talk I gave to the Tampa Bay Technology Leadership Association in early 2016.
Design Simple but Powerful application
This document discusses strategies for achieving simplicity and power in product design. It begins by exploring the tension between simplicity and power, noting that both are important but sometimes at odds. It then provides examples of balancing the two through careful feature selection and presentation. The document also includes a deep dive on how to address challenges through requirements, design, and technical approaches. Specifically, it provides tips on avoiding feature creep in requirements, guidelines for solution architecture, UX design, and balancing workload between users. The goal is to thoughtfully reduce complexity while maintaining powerful functionality.
Future of Business Process Management, Challenges and Best Practices
The document discusses business process automation and keynotes on business process applications. It outlines trends driving the need for automation like business acceleration, mobile usage, data-driven decisions, and cloud adoption. It also discusses challenges in automating business processes and implementing automation solutions. The keynote then demonstrates a business apps platform that allows users to both build and run automated processes and business apps easily in order to speed operations, empower users, and reduce costs. Best practices for business process management like process engineering and an iterative development approach are also outlined.
IBM Design Thinking with z/OS Communications Server
This presentation will provide an overview of IBM Design Thinking. Teams across IBM will use the practices around Design Thinking to build better product designs. The IBM Design Thinking framework is used to guide our product teams through the process of product design and delivery. A key requirement of this framework is to work more closely with our clients, receiving feedback throughout product design process.
Three Guiding Principles to Ensure Success with QuickBase
The document provides three guiding principles for ensuring ongoing success when using QuickBase:
1. Start in the trenches - understand what is important to end users through follow-home visits and feedback to ensure user adoption.
2. Start simple - iteratively build applications in small, easy to change chunks to minimize complexity and fail fast.
3. Add value from the get-go - focus on automating repetitive tasks, saving time, and giving users access to new information to immediately improve how they work.
Lean Business Analysis and UX Runway - Natalie Warnert
How to integrate BAs and UX in a Agile/Lean environment to create an MVP to learn while reducing potential waste. Presented at Lviv IT Arena, 2015 in Lviv, Ukraine by Natalie Warnert, October 3, 2015

The document discusses how business analysts and UX professionals can collaborate effectively in an Agile environment through a process called the "Analyst and UX Runway". This process involves business analysts and UX professionals working together throughout the product development lifecycle from initial planning through execution and review, with the goal of continuously delivering value to customers through short iterations of planning, development and feedback. The Analyst and UX Runway approach aims to balance upfront planning with flexibility to incorporate frequent customer feedback.
Experience everywhere: The post-crisis ITSM revolution
The rapid digital transformation and disruption driven by the Coronavirus crisis has accelerated the shift to a ‘work-from-anywhere’ environment for many organisations.
Service organisations are expected to manage 100% of the digital workforce, yet research shows traditional processes and tools only provide 55% of the visibility required to confidently understand and manage high quality service delivery.
Why do we tolerate working in an environment that waits for something to break in order to fix it?
Many organisations are realising the benefits of sustaining home-working including increased staff productivity, morale and collaboration, coupled with lower office and travel costs, and reduced absenteeism.
With constant change, accelerating pace, rising expectations, and decreasing visibility–could this be the time to benefit from disruption and re-establish a service management eco-system that breaks free of SLAs, prioritises users–who’s only window into their work is their screen–and gain actionable insights to drive proactive, meaningful change for them?
Nexthink’s ITSM Practice Lead, David D’Agostino discussed how organisations drive superior digital employee experience in a ‘work-from-anywhere’ environment and key steps to take into our ‘next normal’.
Business Dimensional Modeling with Laura Reeves
The document discusses Business Dimensional Modeling (BDM), an approach to data modeling that focuses on ease of use and query performance. BDM captures relationships between business attributes and dimensions of facts from an end user perspective. It defines how users can access answers through drill paths and hierarchies. The document advocates engaging business users, automating processes like date dimension modeling, and using BDM and automated tools to improve BI project satisfaction rates. It provides tips for changing behaviors like partnering closely with the business and establishing focused teams to deliver BI solutions that meet objectives.

Making Workflow Automation Personal: The Next Step in Digital Transformation...
True digital transformation requires more than incremental improvements and goes beyond individual projects or processes. To become true digital masters, organizations need to think differently and work to enable their members to rethink everything they do in order to identify opportunities for automation. By addressing the capabilities for enhancing workflow automation as a personalized technology capability, organizations can take a giant leap forward and feed and innovation cycle without any limits. This session will help reframe the primary focus from large, centralized processes to enhancing individual and team collaborators that can drive their own process automation using a variety of commonly available no-code solutions. We will dive into techniques to educate and grow the organization's capabilities and also review some of the commonly supported models for measuring the results and ROI.

ESPC22 Tracy van der Schyff.pdf
Session for ESPC22 - 29 Nov 2022
How autonomy in the modern workplace has changed the way we work, forever (new)
One of my favourite sayings is "Products don't fix problems, people fix problems with products". Might sound like it makes sense, but very few companies are applying this logic. With exponential advancement in technology, we're experiencing unprecedented breakthroughs in our systems, but at the same time our employees are becoming slower and more frustrated while using this technology.
In this session Tracy would cover elements that could be causing this, and possible solutions to overcome and move forward:
· Paying for the mistakes made in the last 20+ years
· Autonomy in the modern workplace
· The era of the digital citizen
· Upgrading your training and support systems
It's not adoption we're after. Usage implies the use of technology, adoption will be the efficient use of technology, what is needed is to create and nurture digital citizens who are responsible and efficient users of the given technologies. Attending this session will change the way you look at the modern workplace.

There is an i in #HunmansoIT - It it starts with you
My session for #MSIgniteTheTour Copenhagen on the 28th of February 2020. #HumansofIT
I truly believe the most important part of inclusion to be self-inclusion. For too many years I put myself down, believing I wasn't good enough, passed up on opportunities. With an imposter spirit inside my head who saw approval & praise as pity. Sound familiar?
I always say that we don't have to be perfect in everything, it's about "surrounding ourselves with people who don't suck at the things we suck at". The #HumansofIT #Community gives us the support we need to overcome these fears and insecurities, we just need to accept the helping hand & learn to be vulnerable. In this session I'll share 7 coping mechanisms that I use to get through every day and keep that negative energy at bay.
#ESPC19 Co-innovation and Office 365
Innovation cannot take place in a vacuum, just as our workforce should be diverse, so should our skill sets. The rise of the citizen development era also brings forth the need to understand how workloads integrate and complement each other. Office 365 delivers a vast set of tools to help companies innovate, automate and streamline activities. In this session, Tracy will share guidance on:
How to foster creativity and innovation
Building a self-learning | lifelong learning culture
How to keep up to date
Examples of co-innovation in Office 365
In this session we'll unpack the Office 365 features (apps & services) and see how they complement each other. We'll also take a look at how to enable your citizen developers. This will give your company the competitive advantage and at the same time help build a company culture geared for the future.
