Scaling Governance for the Entire Organization
Tiina Rytkönen and Sven Seidenberg launch the Rencore Teams app: how to put governance in the hands of the people who own your teams and sites, with a live walkthrough of requests, workspaces and reviews, and how to roll it out in your tenant. Jump straight to the chapter you need.
Key takeaways
-
Governance only scales when owners take part
Administrators set the rules, but only the people who own a team or site can say who should still have access. The Teams app is the translation layer between the two, in plain language and inside Microsoft Teams.
Watch from 4:50 -
The ownership gap is real
Across nine enterprise customer tenants Rencore analyzed, close to half of all teams had a single owner or none, and close to 100,000 files were shared with external guests who had already gone inactive.
Watch from 7:25 -
Owners see and fix access in one place
Workspaces shows each owner their teams and sites with owners, members, site access and file sharing sorted by risk, and they can remove access themselves. Nothing changes until they click Save.
Watch from 25:15 -
Reviews guide owners step by step
Each step says why it matters, several owners can share one review, and the end can trigger your own archive or delete workflow, for example a backup before deletion.

Roll it out in stages
Switch on one feature at a time, starting with Workspaces if you like, brand the app with your own name and logo, and plan the move from Nova and Access before both retire at the end of 2026.

The people who built the Teams app
Tiina leads the teams building Rencore's governance platform for Microsoft 365, Copilot and AI agents. She has led product and technology teams for more than 20 years.
Sven works on making Microsoft 365 governance usable for people who aren't IT admins. He owned the Rencore Teams app end to end and co-authored "Teach Yourself Visually Microsoft Teams".
A lot of end users are scared of breaking something. We wanted them to feel safe clicking around and discovering things, and to know exactly what happens when they click Save.

Frequently asked questions
What does this webinar cover?
The launch of the Rencore Teams app: why governance breaks down between admins and owners, a live walkthrough of the homepage, requests, Workspaces and reviews, and how to set the app up and roll it out in your tenant.
What happens to the Rencore Nova app and Access reviews?
Both retire at the end of 2026. The Rencore Teams app replaces Nova, and the reviews feature replaces Access reviews. Reviews only run in the Teams app.
Can we roll the Teams app out in stages?
Yes. Each feature can be switched on separately, so you can start with Workspaces and add requests, approvals and reviews later. You can also show owners their workspaces without letting them change anything.
How quickly do owner changes reach the tenant?
Usually within 5 to 30 minutes, depending on the load on your tenant. While a change is being applied the workspace shows a banner, and owners can safely navigate away.
Does the Teams app override our Microsoft settings?
No. Rencore reads what is there and carries out actions through Microsoft Graph or SharePoint REST, and owners can only change what their own permissions allow.
Is there a cost to watch?
No, the recording is free to watch, with no form to fill in.
