Teams First Information Architecture

Thursday November 30, 2023 11.45 AM – 12.45 PM

Information Architecture planning has been an important topic for many years. In the past we focused on SharePoint as the ideal document repository for organizations to standardize on. Over the last few years though, Teams has become the primary collaboration focus for many. In this session we will be focusing on the collaboration aspect, and Microsoft's vision for that in the Modern Workplace.

When planning out or updating a Microsoft 365 implementation, SharePoint is still important, but it really needs to start with Teams, and then the underlying SharePoint structure for a big part flows out of that. It's not just answering planning questions, but also ensuring that everyone understands that Teams is much more than a meeting and chat platform. 

Topics we'll cover in this session include:

• Introducing a maturity model on how organizations leverage Teams, SharePoint, Email, and OneDrive
• Level setting on how they work together
• Understanding the differences between Teams Standard, Private, and Shared Channels
• Where do standalone Communication and Team Sites fit into the Teams and SharePoint structure
• Guests versus B2B Direct Connect in Teams, and external sharing in SharePoint
• Answering the question - what does a Team and a Channel represent in my organization
• MindJet as a tool for planning your IA
• Commercial and open-source solutions for implementing your IA
• Real-world scenarios and case studies

We can’t wait to immerse ourselves in the vibrant atmosphere alongside over 1500 IT professionals, developers, and business decision-makers from Europe and around the globe. For those attending, we invite you to connect with Logan and Peter at the Extranet User Manager booth - look for the booth with the big bike graphic!

Let's explore the future of digital collaboration together in Amsterdam!
