Successful Cloud Implementations - Tips and Tricks for the Modern Functional Consultant

04:15 PM - 05:00 PM Addon Room Back to event schedule

Join Shawn Dorward and Kristen Hosman as they share insight and their tips and tricks for implementing Business Central. This session is geared toward functional consultants to help understand where risks exist, hear horror stories and lessons learned. We will have some fun and discuss successful 'better practices' to help the implementation be as successful as possible. Nope, this isn't about how to be a Project Manager, but how to be a consultant with the mindset to help ensure success for the client and the partner.
