Microsoft SharePoint has the potential to deliver significant value and is widely implemented, but all too often technical implementations fail to recognise organisational change and so do not deliver the anticipated return on investment or business outcomes.
I coined the phrase ‘The Celery Effect‘, when I often talk about the problems many technology projects encounter, where the cost of delivering the project is far higher than the benefit the business gets from it.
Do you recognise any of these symptoms?
- Unhappy stakeholders
- Unclear return on investment from your SharePoint projects
- Technology speak framing and guiding the organisation and service requirements
- Lack of KPI’s and measurable outcomes
- The business value versus local requirements dichotomy
There are some other signs to look for that we discussed in a previous blog post we wrote – 10 Signs of SharePoint Project Chaos.
In order to try to provide an antidote to poor performing SharePoint projects we are introducing the 1st ever 21apps public workshop showing you “How to Deliver Business Value through SharePoint”
This 1 day workshop, based upon the proven 21apps SharePoint Organisational Shift Model, is designed to help you overcome the common issues we’ve found in technology led projects. The model’s roots are in the lessons learnt from the delivery of 100’s of SharePoint projects and follow the principles of Agile and Kanban ‘thinking’. You’ll get to understand our approach, the activities, tools and techniques including an insight into our innovative application of Innovation Games in our consulting engagements.
The essence of the workshop, and our day-to-day consulting have has been articulated in a number of blog posts and whitepapers, including:
Shift your Organisation with SharePoint & 21apps
Rightshifting with 21apps Org Shift Model
Identity Crisis – 21apps Org Shift Model
