And have you been burned by consultants in the past? but you need a solution, and don't want to get burned again? Then join us for this session.

We are two Microsoft MVPs and career developer/consultants from each side of the world, we'll share strategies with you, for working effectively with consultants and learn how to identify red flags early on in your in your projects.

This session is designed to give IT administrators, managers, and business owners practical strategies for finding and working effectively with both internal and external developers and consultants. We will cover key questions everyone should ask before a project begins, things to look out for on the way, and things to consider for the project handover.

Through real-world lessons and examples we’ll show you how to build governance guardrails that keep solutions secure, sustainable, and leave room for innovation. You will leave with actionable tools for how to make your developers and consultants trusted partners and turn potential conflicts into collaboration and long-term success with Microsoft 365.

And when you walk away, you’ll know how to tell if your consultant is a vibe-coding illusionist selling smoke and mirrors, or the real deal you can trust to deliver.
