Session Info

SharePoint has evolved to such an extent that end users are

now capable of developing solutions themselves. However – this

leaves a gap in the “food chain”. Where did all the BA’s go –

and who’s getting the users up to scratch? It’s easy to ‘build’

SharePoint solutions – but are they building it right?

In this session I'll show you why it's important to spend 80% of your

time on the Design and only 20% on the Build – and how this will

affect your system adoption.
