Governance
• Define your Governance Policies early on.• Involve key personnel with defining your
policies.• Communicate your policies to the end
users.
Planning
• Lay out exactly what SharePoint can and will do, as well as why it will benefit them directly.
• Support should come from the top. Top executives should each have their own SharePoint sites
• Key people should start a blog for users.
Let end-users in on the discussion early. Not only does this help pave the way for adoption, it cuts down on development and roll-out time.
This will enable you to identify what business processes should be automated first.
