LInkedIn because thats its purpose,
TikTok because its got a highly trainable feed

I consider networking and insights from peers a different category than learning and educational contents. So you might get a mixed signal in the responses.

I'd add this community here and others, which aren't social media-bound.
Similarly, I use publications that relevant associations, organisations issue from trustworthy professionals as well as live networking/reaching out to my peers regularly.

Have clear business requirements up front, make sure the proposal includes items such as scope, timeline, cost, resources.

I have just been asked by an exec from another function to audit a critical project in their portfolio which does not appear to be going well. I have some ideas based on my own PMO experience, but wanted to explore how peers might think about approaching such an exercise.

who are you using to purchase your Microsoft licenses from? We are a midsize enterprise (450 office licenses, plus a bunch of Dynamics spend) We are looking for a vendor that will provide support since we cannot budget for Microsoft direct support. We are also trying to determine if there are benefits to signing a EA over signing a 3 year agreement with someone like Telus who does not have access to EAs (like Softchoice)
