What are the challenges?

Government Governance Gridlock Governance Board Too many cooks in the kitchen Being the most hated person in the

company

Can SharePoint Still be Productive? Yes. Use Out of the Box features.

Is Governance Always Needed? No. Most organizations already have policies:

Compliance Requirements across the Enterprise

Branding Requirements across the Enterprise

Small group for development Small group for administration

What are the advantages?

Speed to deliver Treating people like adults Not wasting time with writing “policy”

Not spending time enforcing policy Innovation

What are the disadvantages? Documented checks and balances for the

auditors End up with 1 cowboy (shoot first, ask

later) No repercussions for wrong-doing

What about those government requirements? Illinois made 100+ new laws in 2013 that

started Jan 1. Cigarette Babysitter Cell Phone Condoms and Birth Control Half Bottle of Wine

What about those government requirements? Your Enterprise already has policies to

address government requirements. Social Media Sarbaynes-Oxley Code of Conduct Computer Use Policy Information Retention Policy Branding Policy

How do you handle legal implications? Logging, Logging, Logging Follow the aforementioned policies

What do you do about cowboy developers? Visual Studio requires a license.

Make sure they know what they are doing BEFORE you provide the tools.

Use a small shop of developers and work within that group for checks and balances

Javascript developers…

What do you manage the expectation of the consumer? Communication is key Provide an easy way to help the consumer

Consulting group Online searchable content Business social network

Where do you draw the line?

Governance SharePoint specific gaps
