Top 7 Ways To Improve Teams And SharePoint Navigation In Your Digital WorkplaceRichard Harbridge
70% of people start their journey by navigating. It is at the very heart of an effective digital workplace. Improving the navigation experience is Intranet's number one priority, and it often is not effectively designed or implemented. Navigation is also foundational for integration, automation, security, and many other essential areas of digital workplace investment. Poor navigation creates unnecessary inefficiencies and dependency on already overburdened resources to fill the navigation gaps with their time and effort directing requests, linking digital workspaces, essential applications, and more.
The good news is that organizations employ proven designs and best practices today to overcome these challenges. Join Richard Harbridge, a Microsoft MVP and internationally recognized expert on Microsoft 365 and the Digital Workplace, as he shares insight on how to better plan, design, personalize, configure, integrate, and enhance navigation for your Intranet and Digital Workplace. In the end, there will be a Q&A session.
Richard Harbridge is the Chief Technology Officer and owner of 2toLead and a Microsoft MVP. Richard works as a trusted advisor with hundreds of organizations, helping them understand their current needs, future needs, and what actions they should take to grow and achieve their bold ambitions.

Putting the "User" back in User ExperienceJeremy Johnson
If you ask a organization "Are you customer centric?" - of course they say "yes", but as you peel back the layers too many organizations have teams of people building products - and the user is nowhere in sight. This talk will go over a number of ways to include users in your product design process, from start to finish. It's time we truly live up to the term "User Experience".
Go Beyond Digital: Elevate Your UX with Service Design ThinkingUXPA Boston
Today, users expect great, consistent experiences with brands – regardless of the context or technology they are using. The entire customer experience, including both offline and digital touchpoints, is what builds customer loyalty.
As UX designers, we often focus too narrowly on the digital experience of the end product. But it’s not all about digital! Widening the lens beyond digital UX to include the entire ecosystem of actions is a much more impactful and meaningful way to design for the user.
Service Design provides a unique, holistic way of considering all touchpoints in the customer journey. And it’s not all that different from the design thinking that UX designers apply to digital products today! Service design uses many of the same principles, design thinking, methods, and tools – just at a much more intersectional and macro-level way.
This session will provide an overview of service design, why it’s important for UX designers, and how to start thinking about it. Using a case study of a non-profit looking to increase customer satisfaction, we’ll explore the challenges, lessons learned, and opportunities that service design provided.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
