Why SharePoint?
SharePoint is a great platform but has it’s own adoption challenges.
• It’s hard for end users to understand concept of lists, document libraries, managed metadata etc.
• Most of SharePoint implementations are tops down rather than bottoms up implementations
• For end users SharePoint is just another tool, which they need to access on daily basis as a push from management
• Default Enterprise social features are sometimes over estimated, in terms of key to adoption

*Some Examples – #2 Run Campaigns
• Forget the traditional ways (emails, more emails …) of generating ideas.
• Use Social features of SharePoint to run enterprise wide campaigns in a secure way.
• Use scoping features to generate or share ideas within a specific project team.
• Employees can then discover & follow the trending topics using trending hashtags/topics features of SharePoint
• Share ideas or knowledge with your colleagues in form of text, document file, video etc.
