In April of 2009 I was invited to be a guest on the CS Techcast IT Pro Podcast.  The topic was “Finding SharePoint Implementation Success”.

The podcast can be found here along with directions for subscribing to CS Techcast. My section starts at 12:10 and is about 14 minutes in length.

Thank you to the wonderful folks at CSTechcast.com for having me on their podcast!

Here are the interview questions:

1. When you walk into a company ready to implement a brand new SharePoint solution, what are you usually starting from?
2. When you look at the level of effort it takes to consolidate a company’s Content Management, what levels of integrations are there for the money and how far do company’s usually go?
3. For the benefit of our audience, tell us how you explain the technical aspects of SharePoint to a business audience? Are there some keys to explaining the concepts?
4. You’ve spoken on the challenges of SharePoint user adoption. Can you give us some of the main challenges?
5. For those looking at the technical aspects of implementing SharePoint across an organization, what resources and expertise are needed when the major project is complete?
6. Are there any objectives you’ve seen in a project that you had to shoot down because they weren’t a good fit for SharePoint or that SharePoint just couldn’t deliver?
