Governance

Abstract

Governance goes hand in hand with user adoption. Having a well-thought-out governance plan ensures that Microsoft Teams is managed and used in the way it was intended. Users will adopt Microsoft Teams if it is well-governed and useful to them. A solid governance plan ensures that the user experience remains positive and that organization assets are stored and used properly. The biggest selling point of Microsoft Teams is that it improves the speed and ease of collaboration by providing one location where teammates can interact, share content, and conduct meetings. However, the benefits will only be realized if time is spent planning the administration and management of the service prior to making it available to your users. Without a governance plan, there are pitfalls that will negate these benefits.
