In this webinar, Microsoft MVP Michael Greth and harmon.ie VP Product Strategy, David Lavenda, explore how providing workers with a unified Yammer/SharePoint experience can connect people and technology, thereby driving the organizational change needed to achieve strategic business goals.

SharePoint Adoption Tactics - SPSPhilly

Gina Montgomery, V-TSP

SharePoint adoption is a very tricky subject. The best planned and designed SharePoint portals can fail if users don’t adopt to SharePoint. Gartner surveys say that more than 50% of SharePoint implementations fail due to poor user adoption. With millions of dollars spent each year on SharePoint deployments, this becomes quite significant. SharePoint adoption starts with proper planning, implementation and governance. In order to have sustained user engagement, new techniques like gamification are also emerging. This session will focus on all these aspects and will provide the attendees ideas and tools to implement for their SharePoint portal. Attendees will be presented with the challenges currently being faced with SharePoint deployments centered around adoption, best practices around planning and governance will be discussed, and ideas for SharePoint gamificaiton will also be presented.

Adoption Tactics; 5 Reasons Your End Users Will Rant and Rave over SharePoint...

Gina Montgomery, V-TSP

Delivered @ the Office 365 Summit in Sydney A social network is not implemented in the same way as traditional software is; not only is Yammer a pure cloud service, but the deployment approach, the iterative and fast development methodology, the user access and interfaces change the role of IT. Attend this session to understand how you can manage users, perform the admin tasks, set-up integrations and understand the technical aspects of Yammer.

Digital Transformation with 2 Speed IT & Agile Scrum

Adapting to the exponential development of technology

DataWorks Summit

Digitalization is impacting every industry in every economy, disrupting markets and upending competitive hierarchies. Across every business discipline, from operations and manufacturing to marketing and sales, companies are struggling to integrate new data, new analytics, and new technologies into their existing processes and practices. Companies that successfully adapt to these new and accelerating changes will outperform their competitors The new challenges require new ways of organizing, new social and technical architectures. In this session, we identify the key challenges businesses face in the era of massive digitalization, and the organizational and architectural steps that will enable savvy competitors to find business value in this time of tumultuous technical change. The gap between first steps and effective digitalization is large. For instance, businesses can run scrum teams without being agile; can have a data science lab without supporting autonomous model deployment to consumer-facing processes and applications; and can stand up a Hadoop ecosystem without understanding how the components fit together or what to do with it. Based on our deep experience with dozens of clients, we describe key differences in levels of technology maturity, and practical tactics leading companies are using to turn digital innovation into competitive advantage.

This paper Microsoft Corporation was written for my Strategic Management class (TM583) back in the Sping of June 2011. The objective of the project was to come up with a comprehensive strategic business plan for a new or existing company. The Microsoft project covers seven course objectives which include, Microsoft's strategy, Microsoft's core competencies, Microsoft's industry dynamics, Microsoft's technology sourcing and internal innovations, Microsoft's product development strategy, Microsoft's strategy to protect innovations, and a Microsoft's project bibliography. Unfortunately, there is no Power Point associated with this project either, but it would have been a great project to make one for this topic.
