Join me at the SharePoint Conference in Vegas!

SharePoint is a powerful technology, but only provides the right level of business impact if you’ve got two key ingredients in the mix:  end-user adoption and a governance plan.  The first means having an end-user audience that is properly trained and informed, working in a culture that properly supports those users.  The latter means finding a balance between IT control and line-of-business empowerment. To that end, an agreed-upon governance model goes a long way.

Given the importance of both topics in a successful SharePoint deployment, I’ll be speaking on both of these topics at the upcoming SharePoint Conference in Las Vegas on October 19-22.  The official titles for the two sessions are:

  • If You Build It, They Will Come: Driving End User Adoption
  • SharePoint 2010 Governance: Planning and Implementation

Attending the conference and want to see me answer an adoption or governance question in one of the sessions?  Leave me a comment here and I’ll incorporate it into the session.

The conference is starting to sell out, so be sure to register soon!
