 This one's from Anonymous. Get a lot of questions from Anonymous. Just set up my first tenant. Is he got that anonymous guy? Yeah, I am. Just set up my first tenant so I can get to grips with Office 365, looking for recommendations for things that are a must for any new tenant. Thank you in advance. So what's a must for a new tenant? How long do we wanna be here for? I know that's a pretty broad question. Very broad. Yeah, I'd say good architecture. You've got to plan the architecture. You don't just go out there and let people create whatever they want. It's got to be planned out. But isn't this like the ultimate it depends question? That's it. You have to know something. Yeah, well, I was like, well, what does that mean? Is it just Office 365? Are you creating an internet with SharePoint? Are you using Teams? Or is it just, is it email? Is it exchange? What's the SKU? Is it exchange only? Is it exchange with Office only? So like, what is that business premium or whatever that one is? Sorry, I'm not an expert in the naming. 125,000 people. Right, I mean, there's so many different things that will, I think there are, there are articles, there are books written on this. I mean, one thing I would say is to go and build a deployment plan. I would start with going to adoption.microsoft.com and get some ideas of what that looks like. And again, you have to answer the question, like what components are you rolling out? I'm not an advocate for turning everything on unless the organization is familiar with all of those things that are being turned on. So you might do a gradual rollout. But don't turn it all off because you don't know what they are too. So, yeah, yeah, yeah. But it goes back to that it depends. What are you trying to do? I mean, if you're able to go and deploy it out to, let's say it is just it's email, Teams, and the Office Suite first. And make that available. There are people that might be familiar with them through prior companies. And so they're very comfortable there, but go and pilot it out with the organization. And there are plenty of training materials that are out there. There are deployment plans that you can go and use and swap out, put your company logo in there and modify, customize for your organization that'll help you through that process. Yeah, bring in some champs and they actually collaborate and work together. So they've got to be part of a team, not just an individual standalone either, because an individual standalone does not collaborate with another. So choose a particular team or champs that will actually work together so that you can test it. And things like you've got so many questions. If you said, Sherry, it's architecture security. Are you dealing with external parties? What does it look like? How secure? What does your organization need to be? I mean, when you're working with them, it can be anywhere. As you said, from five people, it doesn't matter. 125,000 and you're a security type organization, like everything's really locked down. You're gonna have to start learning pretty hard and fast what you have on and off. But I think what's underlying everything y'all are saying is that what business challenge are you trying to solve? Like you can't just create stuff to create stuff. It's like, look and talk to your people, find out what's painful in their job and start building from that using user stories. And that's part of the adoption, huge amount of adoption. Start from your workshop. There's some really great content that's actually available online that you can workshop. You're through even like fast track or on adoption. Start workshopping and start looking and asking all of the questions. There's a lot of really great relevant questions that are there that you can work your way through slowly but surely. And have a look at the personas in your business. What do they do? What do they need? So if you understand some of the personas you can then start to look at, off the back of that, it starts around the architecture or the security. It's like these guys, they're out in the field and they're frontline and they do this and they need this information. So if you look at the people and, I mean, you do it, it's a little generic. You don't wanna actually go deep dive into every type of role. But you start from, what are the personas? What do they do? How do they access the information? Who are they dealing with and break it out? And then you can start to look and go from there. When we're doing, and I'll start right from the very beginning of some of the workshop, they're the kind of things that we get into. Then we look at the scenarios and the scenarios around, okay, here's the type of people. What are the scenarios? They need to be able to share with an external party. How locked down does it need to be? There's a document sharing and the different scenarios and you start to build from there, bring it right back. Cause I see them go straight to the flick this on, flick this off, but they don't know why and whether that's actually needed cause they've not actually worked with the business to build out what it looks like for an individual or a team to work in this environment. A great example, so in past life, I built PMOs, so project management organizations for different companies. And of course this goes back to the SharePoint pre-teams, of course. But we did a lot of the piloting for organizations that I worked in. So we were constantly testing out new technologies and then deploying those. I would look at something like email, I think, again, there are standards, there are best practices for that. I'm not an expert on all things, on deploying brand new exchange. Let's say they're moving from another non-Microsoft email platform and there needs to be training and everything around that. But around teams, talking about the collaboration side for the project management. Again, we might define upfront everything you're talking about, all the governance, security, compliance, rules that need to be in place for that. The naming conventions, the sensitivity labels around the rules around internal, external sharing and the permission structures. Again, there's a lot, just with my team of let's say five direct reports that we're piloting this out, we still have to go through all those things. And again, there's content out there, there's helps that are out there. Adoption.microsoft.com is a great place to go and start for a lot of that kind of guidance. But we might say that my team, so I've run a lot of these teams, might be project-centric teams that are created initiative or program-centric and then internal organizational related things. I might then go create templates for each of those kinds of teams and set up an approval process, part of the governance of this. We're just gonna have it wide open and anybody can create a team or are we gonna have some kind of an approval process and things around that to make sure that the categorizing and the cataloging of our data, it's done in a way that we can then go and optimize the search experience once things are built out, kind of all of those things, it all comes back to again, what is the goal of the organization? What are we trying to do? With a lot of orgs that are Microsoft-centric, they've got some aspects, they've got email, they've got other things out there. Maybe they're already using teams. It's never too late to go in there and clean all this up if you never went through and had those kinds of conversations and sprawl is starting to happen. And now maybe what this person, this is why they're anonymous, because they know they're open, they just open a can of worms. Yeah. They don't want their name on that. I've had a lot of really small businesses, like just one man bans or they've got two or three people come to me and go. And I'm sure you might have had friends in that going, I just want to use this, how do I kind of get in and get started? And it's like, friendly, just use your email, make sure you've got your documents into your OneDrive from a personal, use your SharePoint for your business documents, make sure you make it externally enabled, at least so that you can collaborate with external parties. Just start from there using Microsoft Teams so that you can do your meetings. You don't necessarily need to get into teams and channels just yet, you know? Turn on, you know, your federation and making sure that you've got your federation there to be able to deal with an external party and chat with them if they're federated with you. You know, just some really simple little basics. If you want to go, how do I get myself started? And it's a little one man band. It's like, well, let's just start with the very basics. You know, we're thinking in the big orgs, but I have so many, and anonymous could literally just be, I've just got my own tenant and I know how to do it. I've got a business. What should I do, you know? I'll tell you one thing no matter what you're trying to do. You get that little notification. Something went wrong. Ask your administrator. I'm like, I am the editor. Oh yeah, I get that too. And I got, oh, what a... Look at the mirror. Administrator, you are good enough. You are smart enough. But people like you, you know? One other thing I would say, and again, this is huge. It depends. Conversation, but it is, no matter what size your organization is, turn on a multi-factor authentication. Oh yes, yes, here, here, yes. There's a problem. There's an issue that hits organizations large and small. And with the increase in, you know, just the cybersecurity issues, getting spam and phishing are a constant. It's a daily thing. With my personal tenant, it's just me on it. And I have those issues. Got me too. One of the first things that I think of, because they're really talking about, hey, I just set up my first tenant. What do I do? I, my recommendation there is to actually go through the admin center, right? Go through the admin.microsoft.com. Go through the portal of Azure. Walk through each of them and each page has a guide on learning what to do. That's one thing. And I think that's just getting yourself familiar and comfortable. But certainly, I think you're spot on, Christian. Create a user account. Make that a global reader account. And then get out of there. Get out of there with your global admin account. Go in with your user account. Now go and explore and do that exploration. And you know, I love what everybody is saying around. I have a program team to really help you develop what you're supposed to be or what the intention is for your tenant. But until then, I think the first and foremost thing is what are you trying to accomplish? And that's the, it depends. Secure your tenant and just go explore. Yeah. Yeah, because you're likely, this is always fun too. I started my career 30 something, I'm old, years ago as a business analyst. And so that, you know, the, there's always kind of the cash 22 of asking people their requirements. What do you want? What are the outcomes from that? And if they don't understand what's possible, then they will give you their requirements based on their lens of understanding, their limited view of what they think is possible. And so that experimentation, Michelle, like going in and exploring that, you're gonna find, I didn't know we could do that. Oh wow, I can also do this. And they can get much more creative about solving some of their problems. Yes, be curious. Curiosity is always my word of the day when I'm workshopping. Just go be curious and training, go curious. Go click on it, you're not gonna hurt these. Well, those workshop discussions are my favorite to lead a hundred percent. I know Michelle too. Those are my favorite ones. I always liked, so our mutual friend here, John White, fellow MVP, and he used to always say that the IT should not be the department of no. You know, there's always telling people, no, you can't do things. It should be much more of a conversation and understanding of what are you trying to accomplish, what are the, why are you doing that? And then let's find the best way to do that. And if it can't be done safely and securely, then maybe it's no, but it should always start with a conversation. Yup.
