SharePoint Fest Denver 2017

Reading Time: 2 minutes

I’m thrilled to announce I will be giving 2 presentations in Denver at the SP Fest conference that runs from May 30 thru June 2, 2017 in the Colorado Convention Center. This will be my first visit to Colorado and I’m so excited to go!

I’m doing 2 sessions while in Denver. Details are below…


Information Management and Governance in O365

What does Information Management and Governance mean within the context of O365? What are the tools that allow us to manage it? In this session we’ll talk about the traditional ways we’ve approached this discipline and how the new collaboration world is disrupting this.

Organizations need to empower employees to reap the benefits of new collaboration tools in the digital workplace, but they can’t compromise the security, compliance and protection of corporate assets while doing it.

Capabilities are being rolled out to help organizations keep both managed and unmanaged content secure and compliant throughout O365. We’ll talk about setting organizations up for success on all fronts from an Information Management perspective.


How to Build a SharePoint Search-Driven Website

What does it mean to build a search-driven website in SharePoint and why is this better than the traditional approach of site design? In this session you will learn the value-add of this design architecture and how to build search-driven sites in SharePoint using cross-site publishing and author-in-place features. This approach not only improves the experience for content authors but also provides dynamic, tailored pages for content consumers, all done by leveraging SharePoint search and managed metadata as the underlying mechanism.

I’ll walk thru an end-to-end example of designing, authoring and publishing content as well as customizing search webparts to demonstrate how you can use this technique to keep your site dynamic and personalized. This is a no-code session!

Features demonstrated: Cross-site publishing, Author-in-place, Managed Metadata, Search, Content Search webpart.
