What is SharePoint Governance and why do you care?  In this session you'll learn why SharePoint governance isn't as scary as it may feel and why every organization no matter how large or small needs to think about and implement some form of governance.  You'll learn the questions to ask to get started with governance and how to keep your governance needs from producing a novel.
