Providing social networking capabilities within the enterprise is quickly becoming a business necessity. Many organizations are already invested in the SharePoint platform, but may not be fully aware of its social collaboration capabilities and key business considerations.
SharePoint My Sites facilitates social collaboration, making it easy to share information and stay connected with others. Users in your organization can add terms to their profile describing their expertise, enabling colleagues to find people with experience in a certain area. If you’re evaluating the potential business benefits of My Sites, or perhaps are looking to learn how My Sites can fit into your company’s unique corporate culture, check out the following presentation, “SharePoint My Sites: Aligning Business Needs, Corporate Culture & SharePoint Capabilities.”
The presentation explores the core components and capabilities of SharePoint My Sites, providing information on User Profiles, Social Features, and Personal Sites. It covers cultural alignment and considerations, and then describes common business scenarios and value areas for the utilization of My Sites with an understanding of what’s workable, what can be configured or customized.
