In episode 3 of the Stories of Modern Work Podcast, I spoke with Mr Nate Chamberlain from sharepointlibrarian.com talking about the story of Office 365 at LMH Health and Kansas University

Here are some key points we discussed in the episode.

• Modern Work is meant to empower end users to get their work done with the assistance of modern technologies.
• How to deal with shadow IT concerns? Don’t restrict users and find out what users want and give it them at the right moment.
• Be transparent and upfront about the change.
• Training end users of Office 365 Apps and Services is tricky. - Focus on business solutions and value.
• Information Architecture should be built to support scalability.
• Use Intelligent Automation to support Governance.
• Folder vs Metadata paradigm.
• Governance Plan is an evolution.
• Get customer/user feedback early as you build business solutions.
• Use visual media like Gifs and videos in user education.
• Change Management for Office 365 Administrators to manage system changes and updates to Office 365 tenant.
