Learnings from this week

  • Microsoft wanting to send end users mails tips and trics (but they retracted it for now) doesn’t feel good for Marijn who is a bit of a control freak. Steve likes the idea as all information helps to get the message out and get people to try new things. There is a fine line of giving users too little or too much information.
  • When creatin a design document, start with a baseline governance
  • Changing roles from on-prem to cloud – you need to transform your people to fill the new roles
  • PROSCI adoption certification – ADKAR process
