SharePoint Adoption is a Plane Crash.

A title that hopefully gets your attention, but let me explain.

Successful adoption comes from the creation of a community that develops and supports each other, not just purely through traditional academic based training.

In the same way you see the big blockbuster movies where the victims of an unexpected plane crash work together to support each other and develop new ways of survival (SharePoint analogy for ways of working), and not through a learning session on how to survive.

By the development of SharePoint champions and super users, the need for Technology departments to hand hold and educate becomes less and the trust for the solution and support grows between the peers in the user community. IT can take a step back and watch the community grow and mature, only providing guidance through governance and the introduction of new features and capabilities when required.

Makes sense doesn’t it?
