Drive On the Fast Track to SharePoint End User Adoption - SPS Toronto 2016

Editor's Notes

  • #24: Map the Office 365 solutions to the business challenges.
  • #27: Champions help to: Create the groundswell and enthusiasm that grows adoption of improved ways of working. Build a circle of influence amongst their teams. Bring the new ways of working to life across teams. Identify business challenges and possible solutions. Provide feedback to the project team and sponsors.
  • #32: Internal site announcements, department-specific awareness tactics
  • #35: People learn differently. Training should take on multiple forms to accommodate different learning styles, geographical barriers, and resource constraints. You’ll want to develop a comprehensive training plan that takes into account the technologies being rolled out, the core tasks your audience will need to learn, and the available training budget.
  • #39: Consider hosting a formal launch event to engage teams. Contests and prizes motivate people to participate. Use print and online materials to showcase features and benefits.
  • #40: Raising awareness is an essential step to driving adoption as it informs, involves, and inspires your users. An effective awareness campaign shouldn’t just focus on the new features and functionality to come, but should enable end users to understand the business value of Office 365 and how they can personally benefit from using it. When building your awareness messaging, consider highlighting the vision and business scenarios that you identified in the previous adoption phases, so end users will have an easier time identifying the “What’s in it for me?“ Your awareness campaign should include a variety of tactics to maximize impact and drive adoption such as communications, events and training.
  • #42: Success criteria should be “SMART”. As you draft your success criteria, use the SMART mnemonic to guide you: S - Specific Clear and unambiguous; answers the questions, “What, why, who, and where?” M - Measurable Concrete; clearly demonstrates progress. A - Attainable Realistic; not extreme. R - Relevant Matters to stakeholders. T - Timely Grounded to a specific target date; answers the question, “When?”
