I once had a client ask me if we could “do governance.” Sure. It’s like “doing life” or “doing parenting.” It’s hard and ongoing and takes a heckuva lot of effort so that things go well. Or go at all. This past week I had the honor of chairing ALI’s “SharePoint for Internal Communications” conference. … Read More »
Have you ever heard of “digital asset management?” I hadn’t either, until Rogue worked closely with a marketing firm for our *whispers* secret project. This group really knew their stuff–and it was obvious because they used words like “digital asset management,” known as DAM in the biz. DAM is one of many activities marketing teams … Read More »
I have a confession: I’m old. The oldest at Rogue, at least. Thus, I’ve had a few jobs in my day. Not as many as my millennial brother (burrrrrn), but still enough to know plenty about how different companies function. Some HR departments are passive service organizations–which is cool if you’re there. And then some … Read More »
I love the 90s, and I love Janet Jackson–Miss Jackson if you’re nasty. As she is a constant in my kitchen dance parties with my children, I’d like to thank her for the inspiration for this blog post. Janet’s song, “What Have You Done for Me Lately” (oooh-oooh-ooooh-yeah), is all about a relationship gone stale. … Read More »
You know those days when you wake up and feel like a frisky kitten? Is that weird? I’m sure it is because my metaphors always are. Let me explain–the weather feels like fall(ish), you are uplifted by Kim Taylor’s “Days Like This” on Spotify, there’s pumpkin spice in almost everything, and you have MAJOR GIGANTO GAME-CHANGING … Read More »

We’ve talked about engaging employees through the use of SharePoint, and we even went on (and on!) about the social workplace and how SharePoint can facilitate giving … Read More »
The search feature in SharePoint has not been one of its most lauded—that is until the 2016 on-prem and SharePoint Online releases. With the back-end enhancements, SharePoint search works more like the goo-mumble search engine we all know and love and have sold our souls to. Cool, cool, but how can you harness all that … Read More »

I wish there was a definitive answer to this question, because it comes up a lot in the world of SharePoint intranets. In the modern workplace, how much social is too much? First let’s say what we mean by “social” at work. It’s no longer Birthday Cake Tuesday and Hawaiian Shirt Friday where everyone congregates and … Read More »
You know when you’re driving along peacefully, you are really sure you know where you’re going, and then, BAM, you’re hit by a train? Hopefully, no, you don’t know. How extraordinarily insensitive it would be for me to use that example if it were widespread. It’s a metaphor, people. It’s meant to convey catastrophe. Sometimes … Read More »
