Editor's Notes
Use this slide to inspire decision makers on what’s possible with SharePoint.
Use this slide to help guide the initial creation/ideation of solutions.
Choose a Scenario!
This activity should take place on a whiteboard, use this template to get started. You will also use this template to capture results of the whiteboard exercise and then circulate.
Additionally it is recommended you use sticky notes to represent each solution and have participants place them and move them around on the whiteboard
Identify and agree upon which scenario you are going to focus on.
Encourage everyone to voice their opinions (try not to let one “decision maker” taker over)
Steer them towards choosing a scenario that:
Is obtainable (doesn’t have to be easy, but it has to at least be possible to create in a short amount of time)
Will be used by at least 90% of their employees (or better yet, 100%!) – don’t pick ones that will only be used by the C-level, or managers and up, because ROI will be minimal. Pick something that lifts the entire population up.
Is collaborative. Scenarios that allow employees to interact and collaborate demonstrate the real value of Teams.
Agree on which scenario you will be focusing on. Get everyone’s buy-off! You will need at least one BDM to agree that this is a priority—get an executive sponsor!
