Teams First Information Architecture and Governance

Peter Carson

President

When planning out or updating a Microsoft 365 implementation, SharePoint is still important, but it really needs to start with Teams, and then the underlying SharePoint structure for a big part flows out of that. It's not just answering planning questions, but also ensuring that everyone understands that Teams is much more than a meeting and chat platform.

Topics we'll cover in this session include:

• Introducing a maturity model on how organizations leverage Teams,
• SharePoint, Email, and OneDrive
• Level setting on how they work together
• Understanding the differences between Standard, Private, and Shared
• Channels, and the underlying SharePoint site collections
• Where do standalone Communication and Team Sites fit into the Teams and SharePoint structure -Guests versus B2B Direct Connect in Teams, and external sharing in SharePoint
• Open source scripts and Power BI dashboards to inventory and analyze your file shares, SharePoint on-premises, and SharePoint Online
• Answering the question - what does a Team and a Channel represent in my organization
• MindJet as a tool for planning your IA
• Commercial and open-source solutions for implementing your IA Real-world scenarios and case studies
