Time to Talk
As a group let’s try to understand:
VIS ION

What does Collaboration mean to YOU?‘The action of working with someone to produce something’
or
‘Traitorous cooperation with an enemy’?
….SILLY QUESTION, RIGHT!
What does Collaboration mean to YOU?
But seriously, understand what
‘Collaboration’ means to you and
your organisation, and tell
your customers!
…..cos confusion just ain’t pretty!
They walk amongst us!

Encouragement
“Collaboration is a result of a
culture that encourages it; culture
is a sum of the individuals in the
group”
- Adi Gaskell (@adigaskell)
The ‘C’ Word – CHANGE!
“Changing behaviours at work
requires changing the
environment that surrounds
people when they’re at work”
- Marc D Anderson (@sympmarc)
So what now?....can we KISS?!
Oh wait, you mean ‘Keep It
Simple, Stupid’?
Why promise to de l iver 101
th ings in 6 months , when
you cou ld t ry 10 features
in 2-4 weeks ?
KISS Me Baby One More Time?• DON’T get carried away (look what
happened to Britney!).• DON’T promise what you can’t deliver.• DO a bit at a time.• DO be humble, don't think of yourself as
a super genius.• DO OOTB as much as you can – think ‘do
I REALLY need a custom development?’.• DO think ‘I am upgrade ready?’• DO celebrate each delivery and ……………
have some fun man!

Governance
Excuse me, no more #KillMeNow tweets! Governance is SERIOUS stuff and you can’t afford to not think about it.
To put it in context, without adequate governance in place, your Site Collections will probably turn into Shite Collections.
