Keynote: The success of Microsoft teams & the road ahead

Laurie Pottmeyer, Microsoft, Teams Engineering Group

Laurie shares some insights on the success of Microsoft Teams as well as what's to come.





How to create a governance, training, and adoption resource center for Microsoft 365

Susan Hanley, MVP, Susan Hanley LLC


One of the hardest challenges in getting users to adopt new technology is providing easy to follow guidelines and training that they can “consume” just when they need the information. This session helps guide you through a practical approach to address this challenge for Teams, SharePoint, and the other core communication and collaboration services in Microsoft 365.

You take away a step-by-step approach for creating a super easy, no-code user resource center framework for your environment. You leave with all the design information you need to create your own site, ideas on how to deliver the information “just in time,” and sample content to get you started.






Protecting your Teams work across M365

Joanne Klein, MVP, NexNovus Consulting


With Modern Team sites and Microsoft Teams being created at a record pace these days, are you concerned how content within them can be secured, protected, and retained?

In this session you will learn how various Office 365 features work together to address these requirements so you can breathe a little easier.



Key Takeaways:

  • Understand Microsoft's shared responsibility model and what this means for you

  • Ways to prevent sensitive information in your Teamwork from leaving your organization

  • How to apply retention across your Team work

  • How to have oversight across your sensitive teamwork








Teams Governance Automation at scale

Waldek Mastykarz, MVP, Rencore


As the adoption of Teams continues to rise, it becomes increasingly difficult for you to manage the rapid growth of your Teams. In the end, you give up, facing the inevitable sprawl of inactive Teams channels, unused accounts for external users, and unknown publicly shared content.

However, it doesn't need to be like that. There is a way to scale Teams governance effectively and stay in control.

In this session, Waldek and Bjoern share lessons learned from the field as well as many good practices to help manage and govern your Teams on a large scale without compromising on features or usability.
