MASTERCLASS ONE:

Aligning SharePoint to business goals: Don't just say it, do it

It is common to hear consultants wax lyrical about how we have to align SharePoint to “business goals”. While this and other popular clichés like “obtain executive support” or “obtain user buy-in” are easy to say, in practice they are much harder to do. After all, if this was not the case, then business goal alignment would not be near the top of the list for SharePoint challenges.

In this workshop, Paul will offer practical guidance, tools and methods on how to tame this wicked problem. This in depth workshop will build upon the presentation on “SharePoint Governance Home Truths” and provide a more deeper, detailed focus. Paul will demonstrate how to ensure that all aspects of SharePoint delivery clearly align to organisational aspirations, ensuring all stakeholder needs are considered and at the same time, creating the understanding and commitment via an inclusive, collaborative approach.
 
  • Why SharePoint belongs to a class of problems that are inherently hard to solve
  • Why aligning organisational goals is hard
  • What to do when organisational goals are unclear
  • How to avoid chasing platitudes
  • Tapping into the wisdom of crowds
  • Structuring and running a great goal alignment workshop
  • Creating a walking deck
  • Building on foundations - next steps
 
As a take home, we will also supply a soft copy for attendees with a sample performance framework, Governance plan, SharePoint ROI calculator (spreadsheet) and sample mind maps of Information Architecture
