Just Fucking Use SharePoint.
Everything can be in SharePoint.
Files. Docs. Wikis. Policies. Decisions.
Meeting notes. Roadmaps. Postmortems.
Your hopes. Your dreams. Your unresolved Jira tickets.
If it is internal, needs permissions, and someone will ask “where the hell is that?” — it belongs in SharePoint.
Yes. Everything.
Obviously. If you disagree, please present your email-attachment strategy to legal.
If your “wiki” needs a startup, a browser extension, and a sales call, you are doing cosplay.
“Why did we do this?” should not require Slack archaeology and three former employees.
Tribal knowledge is just undocumented failure waiting for PTO.
Policies in inboxes are suggestions. Policies in SharePoint are annoying. Correct.
Nothing says “learning organization” like burying incidents in a Google Doc no one can find.
“But what about <tool>?”
The moment you add those, you have reinvented SharePoint. Poorly.
“SharePoint isn’t modern.”
Neither are filing cabinets, and yet somehow they still work without a roadmap.
Why people say they hate SharePoint
- No ownership
- No structure
- Permissions assigned like vibes
- Everything named “Final”
This is not a SharePoint problem.
This is a “we refuse to decide anything” problem.
The Radical Solution: Use It On Purpose
- Create sites that map to reality (teams, functions, projects)
- Assign owners with names, not job titles
- One thing lives in one place
- Link things instead of copying them
- Accept that governance is boring and required
You have a memory leak.
Just fucking use SharePoint.
