Welcome to the Internal Communications Strategies with Microsoft 365 Certificate Series!!
In this fast-paced forum, you'll get to know your fellow peers, their biggest internal communications challenges, and a few fun facts.

Intranet governance continues to be an essential component of a successful intranet, yet it can be easily overlooked and poorly defined. If you’ve recently taken over the reigns of your intranet and are ready to add some structure to the underlying framework, this workshop is for you! Many Internal Comms and Intranet Leads face ongoing challenges that stem from an unclear governance model. This can cause confusion among your end users, content stakeholders and make it challenging to manage requests and relationships among HR, IT, and Content SMEs. This session will provide a simple model to help you define the roles, rules, jobs, and decision-making authority required to hold your intranet together, along with a Miro inspired workshop structure that you can use to facilitate your own governance redesign.
