Microsoft 365 comes with many options; apps to deploy, ways to use it, decisions to make, suitability for roles, and when (or if!) to deploy certain parts? It gets confusing, right?

We are often left with only a FEW of the tools being used. Staff get frustrated at the over abundance in choices, and underwhelming amount of direction and understanding. You potentially only see a fraction of the return you and your management team hoped to see. Perhaps rather than a failed project, your one has just struggled to launch fully into the vision you had.

Time to change all that! With the Fruit Salad Formula!

  • Plan with assurance that ALL aspects have been considered - get guidance on what decisions need to be made, now and throughout your project
  • Design your companies recipe for delivering benefits your staff will LOVE - something that can grow organically
  • Learn the tips to ensure change is EMBRACED, rather than feared
  • Communicate with confidence
  • Build your own culture of innovation and improvement by introducing tools in the right way

After 12 plus years of working through the many versions of SharePoint and Office 365 and working with many different customers, across multiple industries, we have lots of stories to tell and decided it was time to share! This is direct response to our customers questions and what they personally struggle with.

We have seen the best and the worst and this is the culmination of that experience. It is real and relevant.

  • How do you approach a simple, effective digital transformation – getting the most from the Office 365 offering, while not overwhelming your people?
  • What do you do, when and how – and most importantly – why to get people engaged with this new way of working, using the tools but also making the behavioural changes you need to instil?

Using the Fruit Salad Formula we combine the different ingredients - demonstrated through tried and tested methods - and tasters along the way to make it real - - complex or simple, iterative, easily changed and usable solutions that can grow as maturity increases. YOU are, however, the final creator of your own recipe. The end result: a fruit salad that meets your company's tastes (and requirements)!

  • Over 2 hours in videos with practical examples, personal experience and explanations
  • 12 different structured worksheets to download and use as guides, assessments, checkpoint and planning tools

Who is this for?

This course is suitable for anyone looking to implement Office 365.

Small to Medium sized businesses: this is usually the Manager/Admin/IT roles (which as we know could be all in the same person!).

Larger organisations:

  • Project teams in charge of the Office 365 deployment, Project Managers , Change Managers
  • Senior Management - we find many managers interested in knowing elements of this so they know what they are in for!
  • Sponsors from various business areas
  • Operational roles including those trying to drive adoption
  • Learning and Development staff (trainers) and Human Resources
  • Support Roles - IT, Digital Services and anyone who needs to support the implementation

ANYONE who may need to be involved in the initial decision making around the roll out of Office 365 and related technologies.

This is not a how-to course about the products as such (we have other courses that build product knowledge), its more about the process of planning for and implementing Office 365.

"ShareThePoint’s training has allowed me to discover more usable features and showed me a few tricks to make things simpler. Debbie was down to earth and explained things very well, while the course content was both interesting and relevant.
