We all know that SharePoint governance by definition is a set of policies, roles, responsibilities, and processes to guide, direct, and control how SharePoint is used to accomplish business goals.

Dux Raymond Sy, author of SharePoint for Project Management, is giving a free webcast next week on “Best Practices in SharePoint User Management“.

You’ve seen this SO many times!” Well, Dux, it’s good stuff! So good in fact, let’s take a look at his recorded screencast to see what techniques he uses when building a Project Management Dashboard w/ SharePoint.

Dux Raymond Sy has offered us a screencast demonstrating how to emulate the experience of navigating through a network share hierarchy WITHOUT creating sub-folders ina document library. I use this same technique in live workshops when people ask how to structure document storage when migrating from a file sever.

If you haven’t had the pleasure of seeing Dux Raymond Sy in action, check out this short video of him asking for your help in a canned goods charity drive that is part of SharePoint Saturday, Washington, D.C., next Saturday, May 2nd. I’ll be there along with dozens of other presenters and 100s of SharePoint devotees.

In this presentation, you acquire the practical knowledge of how SharePoint can address common project management challenges such as Inefficient communication among stakeholders, poor document management practices and undefined project collaboration standards that can compromise project success. SharePoint provides a framework that can empower project managers to create a standards-based PMIS.
