Low adoption Project failures Frustration and chaos Inefficiency / loss of productivity Compliance breaches and penalties Errors and misinformed decisions Lack of agility / missed opportunities Competitive losses
Impact of ineffective information strategy Lack of strategic plans on what to use (SharePoint) for was
given as 2nd biggest issue with adoption of SharePoint, following only lack of expertise to maximize its usefulness (46%)1

I often hear these concerns:I’m in IT. Will the business listen to me?Our data is all over the place!How can I quantify the value?Will a strategy really stop the chaos?Moving to the cloud is overwhelming!I can’t change the culture by myselfHow will I fit this in? I have a day job you know…

Keep this as part of YOUR attitude Acknowledge that information can be a
nuisance or a liability Three common attitudes
Information as a utility Information as an enabler Information as a driver
Mindset: Information is an asset
![Page 14: Information Strategy with O365 in Mind](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052318/58ef93731a28ab0e678b456f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Start with Vision and Values
Build on the alignment you have established
Establish quantified wins Use different categories
of information value Nuisance Compliance Operational Growth
Support - based on value
![Page 17: Information Strategy with O365 in Mind](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052318/58ef93731a28ab0e678b456f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Start with the business driver(s) Describe strategy as projects, not policies
Use patterns Use sub-strategies
Publish - clearly and often
![Page 19: Information Strategy with O365 in Mind](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052318/58ef93731a28ab0e678b456f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Before Digital File Shares SharePoint
COMMUNICATE SIMPLY:
Versioning, centralization, metadata and more help us organize content…
![Page 20: Information Strategy with O365 in Mind](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052318/58ef93731a28ab0e678b456f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Strategy is more vision than analysis
“Visible wins” come in project form
Expect priorities to change Don’t bite off “all your data”
Iterate - in small projects
![Page 21: Information Strategy with O365 in Mind](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052318/58ef93731a28ab0e678b456f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Strategy is “just” a framework
Test: can you see all these building blocks?
Market/Evangelize continually
Relate - to your infrastructure

incomplete content sets
No document

Pattern 1: Bridge across data silos
of knowledge workers regularly access 4 or more systems to get the information they need to do their jobs
61%
regularly access 11 or more systems
of a typical knowledge worker’s day is spent looking for and consolidation information
spread across a variety of systems
36%
15%

Pay attention to information architecture
Add machine generated metadata
Bridge across structured and unstructured data
BUT don’t go overboard
Pattern 2: Add Structure

The rules are changing More business stakeholders bypassing IT and
directly pursuing cloud services, without consideration to governance
More options for working with unstructured content
New business demands coming at short notice - information management infrastructure has to be more flexible
