Phase 4 - Identify your Adoption Path

=What is your adoption strategy? =

As a starting point it's safe to assume most corporate IT users idea of what constitutes online collaboration and information probably doesn't extend much beyond checking documents into a document management system and (over) use of email.

SharePoint offers a lot more and can have all sorts of positive impacts on the way that work is carried out in your team/department. However don't assume the majority of people will get how it all works and why they should be using it. It's a good idea to have an adoption path worked out, i.e. first we will introduce this, then, once they are comfortable we'll introduce this feature.

A good starting point is to get people up-to-speed with using SharePoint for the basics - document storage. Next think about how you can utilize lists within your team.
