00:00:03.400 --> 00:00:10.410
Michael Gannotti
Alright, so we are recording so we're going to kick off today and welcome everybody to midday cafe.

00:00:11.530 --> 00:00:31.100
Michael Gannotti
Your daily cup of steaming goodness and so. Today we've got a couple of things I'm going to be talking about our upcoming Avivo webinar series, the next session, and the subsequent sessions. Also, though about the must see things this week at Ignite, so do not.

00:00:32.250 --> 00:00:43.440
Michael Gannotti
Turn off 'cause you wanna see that and we'll have links to all that, but in the meantime, before I get started, Scott has whipped up some things. Scott, you want to introduce yourself and what are you going to talk about?

00:00:43.810 --> 00:00:46.910
Scott Moore
Sure, I'm I'm Scott Moore. I'm a teams technical specialist as well.

00:00:48.100 --> 00:00:58.770
Scott Moore
Yeah, so this week it's really it's it's action packed well all about ignite so I I put some things together so that we can talk about specifically around.

00:00:59.830 --> 00:01:04.060
Scott Moore
Ignite sessions that are specifically around teams. Modern workplace meetings.

00:01:05.730 --> 00:01:21.160
Scott Moore
It's a ton of content out there, so there's a total of 456 sessions with all content that's being delivered for Ignite in the in the next three days. So what I what I did is I actually went through all those that are specifically around teams.

00:01:21.940 --> 00:01:28.280
Scott Moore
Meetings there's a little bit of power apps in there, or there might be a little bit of overlap with some of the things that you're going to present.

00:01:29.320 --> 00:01:29.970
Scott Moore
Uhm?

00:01:30.660 --> 00:01:35.350
Scott Moore
It's crazy, so I would definitely recommend for folks to go into their session builder ASAP.

00:01:35.670 --> 00:01:54.020
Scott Moore
Uhm, as soon as possible, because the way that I documented some of these things and the way that I I documented these things. 'cause you you really have a couple of categories on how you have your sessions, you have some preliminary things, but we never got a big live broadcasted so you'll be able to easily get into those in real time.

00:01:55.300 --> 00:02:08.880
Scott Moore
Uhm, there's also some sessions that are already full, so they were. They were capacity limited, so I also highlighted those as read just to say that you probably want to add those to your book pack backpack.

00:02:09.710 --> 00:02:26.500
Scott Moore
Uh, so you won't be able to actually register for those 'cause those are already hit their capacity limits, but you definitely want to review those. And then I have some that are. Also, I've I've coded as yellow so we're kind of working with kind of a stoplights today. Green, yellow and red.

00:02:27.330 --> 00:02:27.910
Scott Moore
Uhm?

00:02:27.760 --> 00:02:28.520
Michael Gannotti
There you go.

00:02:29.080 --> 00:02:52.190
Scott Moore
So because if there are other sessions that you do want to go ahead and RSVP 4. So I'm I mentioned that those sessions could be capacity limit, they may not have hit their capacity limits, so you do want to go ahead and go ahead and schedule ASAP on. You're also going to see some overlapping times, so naturally you you probably won't be able to attend the same session or multiple sessions in the team same time.

00:02:52.940 --> 00:02:59.240
Scott Moore
The way that I've documented this is actually just for eastern Eastern Standard zone for the US.

00:02:58.700 --> 00:02:59.710
Michael Gannotti
Are you going to show it?

00:03:00.020 --> 00:03:02.810
Scott Moore
I am Yep so I was running my mouth.

00:03:03.170 --> 00:03:04.250
Scott Moore
Uh, so.

00:03:03.420 --> 00:03:04.590
Michael Gannotti
I want to see.

00:03:05.040 --> 00:03:09.080
Scott Moore
Sometimes I can't. I can't drive and chew gum at the same time, so you know how it is.

00:03:09.830 --> 00:03:10.430
Scott Moore
Uhm?

00:03:11.940 --> 00:03:42.130
Scott Moore
So let me share that so yeah, it does definitely look like a Christmas tree, so forgive me that they will try to clean this up as we present this and I'll just kind of walk through this. I'm not going to walk through every session, but what I what I basically did was I went through all the sessions that I thought that would be pertinent for things that I get excited about and also noted that his speakers are 'cause I think that's very important. A lot of times you may see a session, but are you also kind of the way that I do? This is also qualify if I know who's speaking.

00:03:35.960 --> 00:03:36.320
Michael Gannotti
Yeah.

00:03:42.480 --> 00:03:46.160
Scott Moore
But if I know that person or know that they have an interest that they don't be shared.

00:03:46.770 --> 00:04:01.490
Scott Moore
So I captured that here as well. So all these are going to be hyperlinks, so you can click on these sessions. You can also go to the session builder, so I've done this by day so we have Tuesday. You'll see some greens, so we have our opening keynotes. Was Sacha Judson injured?

00:04:03.240 --> 00:04:15.080
Scott Moore
Going straight after that into 2:30, we definitely have a lot of breakout sessions. Some of these as you see here, red, so those are already full, then other things, as I mentioned that you also will want to go ahead and and RSVP for.

00:04:16.270 --> 00:04:32.070
Scott Moore
So action packed for Tuesday. Wednesday is basically the same, uh? We also have a lot of sessions here, mostly subscription based or RSVP based. They need to change the color on that one. So we're we're basically hitting right up to the wire.

00:04:32.460 --> 00:04:32.870
Michael Gannotti
Thanks.

00:04:32.710 --> 00:04:38.290
Scott Moore
Uhm, the unique thing I saw about Thursday though is Thursday is predominantly out on demand.

00:04:38.900 --> 00:04:44.560
Scott Moore
So they don't demand content. You should be able to access it, I believe as soon as we go live.

00:04:39.810 --> 00:04:39.920
Michael Gannotti
Yeah.

00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:55.680
Scott Moore
So there's a lot of own demand content that's out there that you may be able to access beforehand, and you will see some duplication. So I found some duplicates, so I tried eliminate some duplicates.

00:04:57.720 --> 00:05:04.100
Scott Moore
But yeah, there's a. There's a crazy amount of content out there. This is just for the modern workplace that I've highlighted.

00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:03.500
Michael Gannotti
Yep.

00:05:04.730 --> 00:05:11.180
Scott Moore
Uhm, we did not hit things around Viva 'cause I figured you would be covering that. There's also other.

00:05:11.880 --> 00:05:13.180
Scott Moore
Other disciplines.

00:05:12.430 --> 00:05:13.100
Michael Gannotti
Cream.

00:05:13.990 --> 00:05:21.430
Scott Moore
Security, everything, it's just it's a ton of content, it's it's it's. It's just overwhelming.

00:05:16.780 --> 00:05:17.230
Michael Gannotti
Yeah.

00:05:22.340 --> 00:05:26.730
Scott Moore
So it's going to be interesting to see some new announcements that we can't really talk about quite yet.

00:05:27.340 --> 00:05:32.520
Scott Moore
But definitely stay tuned because there will be some new announcements which everybody is going to be excited to hear about this week.

00:05:33.930 --> 00:05:38.180
Michael Gannotti
Very cool and so you're going to supply this to me, right? To post with the.

00:05:39.190 --> 00:05:43.080
Scott Moore
Yep, so after after we finish this, I'll clean this up and we'll.

00:05:43.730 --> 00:05:44.910
Scott Moore
Will post this.

00:05:45.300 --> 00:05:45.820
Michael Gannotti
Yep.

00:05:46.730 --> 00:05:47.530
Scott Moore
Go from there.

00:05:47.760 --> 00:05:48.730
Michael Gannotti
Get alive.

00:05:48.130 --> 00:05:52.350
Scott Moore
So therefore I get get everybody should get started on scheduling, there's there's sessions.

00:05:53.490 --> 00:05:56.970
Michael Gannotti
Like now you got anything else or is that it?

00:05:54.850 --> 00:05:56.030
Scott Moore
Now yes, Sir.

00:05:57.320 --> 00:06:01.780
Scott Moore
That's basically everything I had, so I spent the morning working on this, uhm.

00:06:02.710 --> 00:06:12.910
Scott Moore
So this is my version. You know there may be other versions out there. I've seen some other folks post out there in the in in LinkedIn and the Twittersphere. So out of folks have also also posted some things.

00:06:10.690 --> 00:06:11.210
Michael Gannotti
Miller

00:06:13.500 --> 00:06:17.940
Scott Moore
So I haven't had a chance to cross reference what others. I've just picked what I thought would be pertinent.

00:06:18.950 --> 00:06:25.590
Scott Moore
So definitely multiple perspectives out there. I think I hit everything I may have missed a couple of things.

00:06:26.370 --> 00:06:26.750
Scott Moore
Time.

00:06:27.760 --> 00:06:34.100
Michael Gannotti
alright, well you wanna drop your screen and I will share mine out then.

00:06:34.530 --> 00:06:34.950
Scott Moore
Sure.

00:06:35.410 --> 00:06:37.910
Michael Gannotti
So let's see. Here we go.

00:06:41.150 --> 00:06:44.880
Michael Gannotti
And let me know when you can see that Scott.

00:06:45.150 --> 00:06:45.320
Scott Moore
We

00:06:45.380 --> 00:06:45.990
Scott Moore
can see that.

00:06:49.600 --> 00:07:18.520
Michael Gannotti
So I have a couple of things. First is shameless plug, so for HLS healthcare life sciences I'm doing a four part Viva deep dive. We already finished the first one so you can get the on demand content here. So for example the first one was on Viva Connections and I have the agenda overview. We actually I went through it. I went through how to set it up.

00:07:18.570 --> 00:07:41.680
Michael Gannotti
We actually set it up and configured it live. Then I have all the accompanying resources as well as a link to download my deck, so that's all here and you can get that if you are interested. But again, all that's in one spot also coming up, so if you scroll on down.

00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:55.140
Michael Gannotti
And I'll have the link in this webcast directly to this. Here is a link to the four part web series. What I'm doing is this. I have the events right here. You can download the.

00:07:55.200 --> 00:08:25.630
Michael Gannotti
We, uh ICS calendar file. Get that and add it. So for example, the next one is November 10th. I'm delivering one on Viva insights and you can click here, download it, add it to your calendar if you don't want to do that, you can click here on that day. So I'm putting that directly at the top before each session so it's front and center and then as we complete the session I have a link to the recording. So this is your kind of your one stop shop.

00:08:25.680 --> 00:08:52.750
Michael Gannotti
Or have that. But again, we have insights coming up Viva topics which a lot of fun. We're gonna add it and show you all kinds of stuff in there and then the same for Viva learning, which we're going to do a some custom content inclusion and I'll show you that I just did that the other day, and it's pretty pretty rock, and so be sure to check all that. That is the four part Viva series that I'm doing apart from Ignite.

00:08:42.410 --> 00:08:42.760
Scott Moore
Yeah.

00:08:53.060 --> 00:09:04.210
Michael Gannotti
Uhm, but talking about ignite, I'm gonna provide this link. So there is a publication I didn't want to duplicate it. 'cause Mark Cashman is like.

00:09:06.380 --> 00:09:15.170
Michael Gannotti
Or Mark Mark is awesome. He's I mean by the way, if you ever get a chance to meet him, one of the nicest guys you will ever meet.

00:09:15.810 --> 00:09:45.030
Michael Gannotti
Uh, so Mark Kashman posted out this a great guide going talking around SharePoint one drive Viva, Microsoft List, Stream Visio and more and he brought all those sessions together right into this great list so you know he's got the key notes and information around that. There's going to be some great stuff around Viva folks. I mean, there's great stuff around everything, but there are some.

00:09:45.270 --> 00:10:04.320
Michael Gannotti
Really great stuff coming out around Viva and they have the road map for the new digital employee experience so there are new modules that they're going to be talking about. There's all kinds of stuff I can't say today. If it was tomorrow I could say it, but I can't say it today so.

00:10:05.590 --> 00:10:34.540
Michael Gannotti
Be sure to check this out and go ahead and check those out. There's also you had mentioned on demand sessions that will be available. Here's the links to those and just so you know, there's some great stuff coming out from the stream team, including they're gonna reference and have links on their on demand. They're having some post Ignite customer direct opportunities around what you need as a customer, what you're looking at.

00:10:13.250 --> 00:10:13.680
Scott Moore
Huh?

00:10:34.610 --> 00:10:45.630
Michael Gannotti
And and to have dialogue with them, they're really looking to connect with customers directly, so take a look at that. But you can see here we've got new things on SharePoint Solutions, templates, pages and more.

00:10:46.150 --> 00:11:03.170
Michael Gannotti
Uhm, new stuff around developer developers for building apps using the power platform and being able to publish that. Make it available as a tile for example or as a Web Part or as a tab in teams. All this great stuff.

00:11:04.490 --> 00:11:18.110
Michael Gannotti
Be sure to check it out. There's some great stuff on office and some announcements from Microsoft Office, and oftentimes we don't even think about it, but for most people gets where they spend most of their time.

00:11:19.010 --> 00:11:19.580
Scott Moore
Office.

00:11:19.630 --> 00:11:49.760
Michael Gannotti
Office right there and excel, word, PowerPoint etc and really office is further developing as this as this canvas for content creators and we're introducing some very cool stuff that's going to be coming out, so be sure to check that out. Do not skip and all of these are beautiful beauty of all these different ones. It's not just live but even like the ones that Scott shared that are red, you'll be able to view him.

00:11:49.810 --> 00:11:53.660
Michael Gannotti
On demand afterwards. So we're putting all this stuff up.

00:11:52.540 --> 00:11:52.790
Scott Moore

00:11:54.610 --> 00:11:58.600
Michael Gannotti

Michael Gannotti
