SharePoint and Microsoft 365 Governance Policies and Guidelines Questions
One key to successful plans for Microsoft 365 governance is to have the right conversations with the right individuals at the right time. If you start with the right questions, you can build your governance plan from the answers. I’ve spent a lot of time asking governance questions in my work with clients. This document provides a list of the conversations as well as the questions that I typically ask for SharePoint and Microsoft 365 (including Microsoft Teams and Yammer), though many of the questions apply to earlier versions as well. For the questions about the user profile attributes, I’ve also included the typical guidance (i.e. “governance”) that we include in the governance information for users when they set up their profiles. The document is updated frequently (see home page of the site for the latest update date).
