Episode 43: Building School 2.0Chris Lehmann worked in a school that matched his vision of education by about 75% – and that other 25%, he says, was what gave him “license to dream.” What would you dream of if you had the opportunity to design a school from scratch? The founder of Educon, the Science Leadership Academy, and Inquiry Schools talks with host Tim Fish about his quest to create a fully inquiry-driven, human-centered learning model where citizenship and science shape the direction of the school. Guest: Chris LehmannResources, Transcript, and Expanded Show NotesIn This Episode:“I want their heads full of thought. I want them to have the wisdom to apply those thoughts in meaningful ways. I want them to have the passion to push through when the world tells 'em it cannot be done. And I want them to be kind because I think we need more of that in the world.” (15:49)“We don't give anyone else agency, right? We as human beings, you have agency because you are a human, because you are alive, as do I. Now lots of institutions in our society, school being primary among them, take away agency. But what actually we try to do is not give students agency, but help them unlock their own.” (23:10)“If a high school science education does not help students understand fundamentally that the way in which they live their lives, the products they buy, the kind of house they build or live in, you know, the way they use power, the car they drive, that all of these things have a profound impact on our world, right? Then you have failed children. Because the ability to apply a scientific lens to the choices we make every day as human beings is a fundamental part of being a citizen.” (26:51)Related Episodes: 35, 32, 31, 28, 16,17, 4 Hosted on Acast.

On this episode, we hear from Gaia Carini and Katy Erlandson from the OneDrive engineering team. We dig into OneDrive to distinguish the value between the "Add to OneDrive" feature and general sync of team site document libraries - sometimes referred to as "Shared libraries". You'll hear more about what each capability does, the path forward by design to make it easy for you, plus guidance for today and going forward. The whole of this episode spawned from a Twitter thread request, and we think you'll like this audible response. Click here for this episode's corresponding blog post. Full transcript below.

I'm Mark Kashman, Senior Product Manager on the Microsoft 365 marketing team. And on today's episode, we hear from Gaia Carini, Principal Group Product Manager, and Katy Erlandson, Senior Product Manager, both from the OneDrive engineering team, here to dig in to distinguish the value between Add to OneDrive, the feature, and general sync of Teams Site Document Libraries. There's a lot that you can do, and there's some best practices. And just so you know, document libraries in this case are sometimes referred to as shared libraries, those that you share with your, or in a shared space, effectively outside of your OneDrive, your own personal work OneDrive, but you want to bring in all of those files and folders even if they're shared. So you're going to hear about each of these capabilities, the Add to OneDrive and the common notion of sync, and the path forward—by design—to make it easier for you and pervasive. You'll hear guidance today and going forward, plus a few favorite tips and tricks—direct from the team—that designs the overall user experience of OneDrive. And the of the whole of this episode kicked off by request from our audience on a unique platform discussion, and we will share that as we kick off the episode with Gaia and Katy. Just a fun way where we heard some great feedback that turned into a great episode. So I just have a few thoughts to share. When you actually think about the Add to OneDrive feature, it's really easy. You just locate the folder that you want to add to your OneDrive, select the circle of the Folders tile, so that you can take an action on it, and then select Add Shortcut to My Files—effectively Add to OneDrive at the top of the menu—or you just right-click a folder and select that same notion, Add Shortcut to My Files. So this is a feature that I use, the Add to OneDrive, for all of the files in this podcast, really forever – for wherever I am in my OneDrive. Most commonly, here at my desk at home, I go into the Windows Explorer, I find the Mark-Microsoft OneDrive icon, I click into the Documents-The Intrazone folder, and there it is, even though this comes from a document library in a SharePoint site that's connected to a Teams' team that we use to help manage this podcast. It's really just a one-or-two-click-away action for me to get to those show notes and the folders, and all of the things we do per each episode across the various Microsoft Teams channel, effectively a folder in a document library. I have access to all of that. No matter where I look across OneDrive, once I've added it to OneDrive, created that shortcut for my common My Files experience, and it takes me to wherever those files are located, without moving them, but it's a great reference with some real ease of access. So I do this for the Intrazone, I do it for the Microsoft Lists product management that I help manage here at Microsoft, and of course with various conferences, some of which are managed by other people, which I think is one of the best possible use cases where somebody else is managing files and folders, and I go in and I add those that are most relevant to me, during that event, to my OneDrive, by just clicking on their folders and files and add to my OneDrive. I have access, so I can do that, and then I will have access, more directly, without having to navigate to that site or that team. It's just right there in Windows Explorer, same experience, document/name of event, even if it's managed by somebody else who's invited me into that team, and then we all work on a variety of files, but then I have access to all of that, with fewer clicks and more in my own domain so I know which files are mine and which files are coming from a shared location. That's a little bit of how it works, how I use it. I think the best thing, though, is to get clarity of what we're really here to answer, which is, how do I distinguish that Add to OneDrive feature with Team Site sync when I'm using OneDrive? And no better people to help answer that than from the product team, so let's bring in Gaia and Katy to address this and much more. (Music.) All right, it is enough of you hearing Chris and I speculating what this OneDrive sync and all the things you can do in this modern era of files experiences everywhere. We are here talking with Gaia and Katy from the OneDrive team, joining us on the Intrazone. Gaia and Katy, welcome. GAIA CARINI: Thanks, Mark, we're excited to be here. MARK KASHMAN: And I'm excited that you're here. Before we get into the why we're here, which might be obvious to everybody, but we have a really particular reason that's kind of a fun reason of the way this episode came about. But if you don't mind, both of you sharing just a little bit about what you do on the OneDrive team, and of course there – if there's more that you do here at Microsoft, people would love to know a little bit more about you. So I thought, Katy, we would start with you. KATY ERLANDSON: I'm a PM on the OneDrive sync team. I've been working primarily on our enterprise features, the last few years, and Add to OneDrive being one of them, so I'm happy to be here today and talk more about that. MARK KASHMAN: Very nice, and Gaia. GAIA CARINI: Hi, everyone. I'm Gaia. I am the Group Product Manager of the OneDrive sync team. So my team, including Katy, works on OneDrive for Windows and macOS across consumer and commercial users and scenarios. And yeah, I've been working on sync for several years now, and I love being on the OneDrive team, and it's been really fun. MARK KASHMAN: What I thought was fun about this episode, I know you both know, but for our audience, you should know that the impetus of this episode truly came from our audience in the broadest way. There was a Twitter discussion that was going on, and the focus of that was "when do I use the Add to OneDrive feature versus sync?" And of course, you can imagine somebody out there was thinking about who they should pull into this conversation, and we now have Gaia and Katy who are about as close to the source of answering that question, which we will address it in the exact way that you'd imagine, the OneDrive team as the accurate way. You know, when you first saw that Twitter discussion, there was that twee threat. A. I was really happy that you said yes to joining us on the Intrazone to provide the answer. Is that a common thing that you see people asking, or as they're trying to navigate some of the feature sets and capabilities of OneDrive? GAIA CARINI: Yeah, it is a question that we have been getting, and so I was looking forward to us coming here on the Intrazone to talk more about the two different ways to sync files from either shared libraries in SharePoint, or just a folder someone has shared with you in – from their OneDrive, or files from Teams. Since it is a common question, we're really excited to go more into the differences and what our recommendations are, and what we see the long-term plan to be. MARK KASHMAN: So where do we start? We come off this thread and we start to stare at – you know, what is a great way to answer that, which I know you both have some nice thoughts around that. I thought Gaia, just to start with you, let's set some ground foundational elements of, when we talk about sync, maybe at the Teams Site level, you know, what is that, syncing the Teams Site and then answering in that same vein of thought, what is Add to OneDrive. GAIA CARINI: So first, starting with just OneDrive sync as the app, OneDrive sync lets you access and edit and share files from Windows and macOS, no matter where they are, in your own OneDrive, in someone else's OneDrive or in a Teams Site, you know, or in – you know, from a channel in Teams, including if you are offline. And to sync the files that are in those shared locations, we have two models that are supported, the sync button and Add to OneDrive. And so first, I thought I'd just share what are some of the differences between those. So the sync button is something that we've had since we started supporting with the new sync client when we were on our journey to replace Groove. We added the sync button and that syncs the folder or library to that specific device. And so let's say I'm here on my Windows PC, and I go to, you know, our team, the folder where our team saves all of our specs. I can click the sync button and that will sync it to this PC specifically. But then if I go on my Mac, I won't see that same folder, and that's where Add to OneDrive comes in. Add to OneDrive allows you to add that folder—let's say in this case a spec folder that's really important and I go to all the time—to your OneDrive so that it's easy to find, no matter which device you're on. And it'll start syncing, you know, on that device where you added it to your OneDrive but across all your devices too. So now, if I go back to my Mac, I'll see that same folder also being synced, but I'll also see it on my mobile device, through the OneDrive mobile app, or on Teams if I go navigate my OneDrive files through Teams, and on the web and in Office. And so it just allows you to easily find your files in those shared locations. MARK KASHMAN: So I've used the Add to OneDrive feature, and I – I've done it four or five times, consistently, with – the right use case—at least for me—is when I go into my Windows machine, any Windows machine and I get into my OneDrive, and I see those shared folders that I've added to my OneDrive. It's the quickest way for me to get to them, and it also is the kind of spaces that I work in, pretty much throughout the year. I have one Add to OneDrive for my next-gen events site, so any event that I work on, I can get into the folder of the individual event, see the sessions, PowerPoints, any videos, and you know, some of the pre-material that we have for people to use for like graphics to tweet out, and stuff like that. And I also have another one that I use for Microsoft Lists, with the Lists team. It's a place where we create a lot of different outbound presentations. We also manage, you know, the different feature sets that are upcoming, but from a content and document perspective, I just go into my Windows Explorer, click on OneDrive and then go right into the name of that team, which is either Microsoft Lists or Next-gen Events, and it's just right there, and it's – it's really easy to navigate. I know it's there, and it just – like you said, it doesn't matter which machine I'm on, so I really do love that feature, and I think it's really important for people to understand how to leverage that in the different scenarios, which I thought, Katy, if we could get some of that insight from you, you know, whether you're thinking about sync or Add to OneDrive, or what we know, kind of into the future, what we'll get to, is what do you recommend and why, when – when you think about different ways that you would guide people to use the technology. KATY ERLANDSON: Yeah, so we definitely recommend Add to OneDrive. It is a newer, shiny feature. From Team Site sync, as Gaia mentioned, it's kind of a more holistic OneDrive experience, so you're not just getting it on whichever device you chose to sync it on, but you're getting that content across all of your devices. And it's also more – more performant. I'm not sure how many people realize this, but with Team Site sync, we're actually also syncing all of the metadata for the whole library, even if you go and you only sync at the subfolder level, like in Gaia's case in the spec folder. In Add to OneDrive, if you go and you add the shortcut right at the spec folder level, then we're only syncing that content. So for really, really big document libraries, this can actually be a pretty big gamechanger. GAIA CARINI: Yeah, to add to what Katy was saying, with Add to OneDrive, we've also made several improvements to the experience where, for example, if you decide, you know, you're done with a certain project and you no longer need that folder, and so you remove the shortcut from your OneDrive, we'll go and clean that up from the device, which I know is feedback we get from the sync button experience. So we've made improvements like that to the experience. We also have a group policy that allows removing the shortcut content if users no longer have access, for example, to the content. So we've been continuing to improve on the experience, based on feedback, in addition to all of the advantages Katy mentioned. MARK KASHMAN: Maybe, Kattie, back to you, you – you know, thoughts around guidance. If I'm IT, and I'm thinking Microsoft is describing, you know, these different ways that I can configure for my employees, my end user, what would be some of the things that we might guide them to consider—if not even pass along—to their end user? KATY ERLANDSON: If you know that no one in your company right now is using Teams Site sync, we recommend just guiding everybody to only using Add to OneDrive. In our documentation there is a script where you can actually turn off the sync button for your whole site, and so if you know that – that no one in your – in your organization is using Teams Site sync, I would just go ahead and turn that off now and start taking advantage of – of all the things that Add to OneDrive has to offer. If you are in a mixed state, I would definitely stay tuned for our guidance here. We will be migrating users off of Teams Site sync and into – on to Add to OneDrive, eventually, but first, we really want to make sure that we're addressing feedback and that we can make sure that the migration will be seamless. So definitely stay tuned here but know that that's where we're heading. MARK KASHMAN: So one thing that I've been just curious about, hearing you talk about the administrative capability to turn off the sync button in the Teams Site, from the Teams Site level, does that same sync button disappearing experience actually happen also in Microsoft Teams? If I'm in the Files tab, which effectively is that shame – same connected SharePoint document library, does the sync button also disappear in Teams? KATY ERLANDSON: Yeah, so it will also go away in Teams. It's the setting that removes the button for the whole tenant, so – so yeah, Teams will be included in that. GAIA CARINI: But the Add shortcut to OneDrive option that we've been talking about is already available in Teams, and so if you go to the Files tab and there is – you know, in the general channel—or whichever channel—a folder that you want to make sure you're syncing, you can still use the Add shortcut to OneDrive button from Teams. MARK KASHMAN: Yeah, that's great, because I think a lot of people kind of ask a broader question, you know, when I'm working in SharePoint versus working in Teams, files being the – what they're talking about. It's that – sometimes that delta of experience. I know the team is broadly working on, you know, having the capabilities be the same, and I think from a sync perspective it's really important that, if you—from an admin perspective—chose to remove the sync button, by guidance of, you know, using the Add to OneDrive more, as we go into the future, I think a lot of that is kind of comfort food for admins to go, "Okay, I changed it once and that will be adhered to these different entry points that people might be making those choices," which kind of leads me into where I at least wanted to pick your brain. The Twitter topic was more around what we've been talking about, the sync and Add to OneDrive, how they work together and maybe, you know, a little bit more guidance on what – what to use, when. If we were to step back and just ask the OneDrive team, whether it's a sync question or broader than that, what is the long-term plan? You know, where would you tell people the – the direction that we're going, either in this space or even broader than that? Gaia, I would start with you. GAIA CARINI: As Katy mentioned, the long-term plan is to really use the Add shortcut to OneDrive, or Add to OneDrive functionality, to allow users to sync their files across all devices and access them really easily, no matter where they are. As part of that, we have been talking to a lot of customers, and we have heard feedback on some of the gaps in the experiences, or some of the – you know, just feedback from users interacting with Add to One Drive and comparing it to this – the way the sync button syncs files. And so we were really focused on really understanding all of that feedback and addressing that. We also, in addition to that, need to work on making the migration from the sync button synced content to Add to OneDrive really seamless, both on Windows and Mac, and so that's another thing that we've been looking at and planning. Eventually, the goal is to fully replace the sync button, and so stay tuned for more information and timelines on that. We don't have timelines on it right now. Again, the – the current focus is really addressing the feedback so we can really make the Add to OneDrive experience the best possible one for users across different scenarios. MARK KASHMAN: Anything from a – a robust service like OneDrive, especially one that's been in use at scale, managing our customers, especially – you know, for giving IT the tools that they need, and obviously the awareness change management of what's coming or best practices and guidance, I – I certainly think that's a great investment area. I know, you know, knowing a lot of change, and if it affects our customers negatively because it's a bigger impact or something that they didn't see coming, and this one sounds like it's a perfect way to both blend getting users to think about doing things a little bit differently and that impact not being something that is unmanageable by IT when we make that change. So Katy, you know, there's probably a lot of feedback that's coming in. What would you say is the number one or top piece of feedback that we're actually working to address? KATY ERLANDSON: The thing that we hear the most, probably, is this concept of, like confusion around me versus we. With Teams Sites, we kind of said, "Okay, if it's in your OneDrive node, you can think of it as your personal stuff; if it's in your Teams Sites node, you can think of it as shared content, but then users can still share from their OneDrive and then it's – there's a mix of shared content there. And now, by adding shortcuts into OneDrive, it just adds a little bit more to that confusion, and so our primary focus is to clear that up. It becomes the most problematic around deletes. So if somebody deletes a file that they think is in their OneDrive, and it's just for them, and then that delete is propagated, and then now that's deleted for everybody, and then they don't find out about it until somebody else needs to work on it, and then it's missing. So that's our top priority. We want to make sure that deletes are super clear. It's clear when it's being deleted for just you or it's being deleted for everyone, and we want users to confirm that before they actually do send that delete out to everybody. So that's number one. We kind of had this same feedback with Teams Site sync also. It's not really a new problem to add to OneDrive, but it is definitely still there. MARK KASHMAN: It sounds like, to me, you're going to be increasing—in a positive way—the use and value of the recycle bin and the awareness of "before you throw it away …" and of course, always the awareness of "if it's been thrown away …" you know, the recovery and – and the value there, the value for OneDrive if it's your own set of files, and certainly value if it's a shared set of files. And it's interesting, the me/we space, I've heard both internally working with MVPs, hearing how they discuss it, and I think the way you're describing it, Katy, a lot of it is the – how does the technology work, and what are the things that, you know, are blocking people from either understanding it or, if they're using it, and they hit some of these—especially like a delete scenario—how to make it so that they do delete something effectively, or if they delete it and they're aware before they maybe accidentally do it. KATY ERLANDSON: Exactly. We want to make sure that we can prevent it if it's not what they meant to do, and when accidents do happen, we also want to invest in making that recovery be easier. MARK KASHMAN: Gaia, did you have a thought? GAIA CARINI: Yeah, I think you both are spot on. On the me versus we topic, I think some of the things we're looking at is really how to surface the fact that the shortcut is from a shared location in File Explorer and Finder. You know, whether that's through the icons we use, or even where the shortcut goes by default. And so we're exploring different potential paths there, but we know it's definitely a common theme across a lot of customers we've talked to, and so it's really top of mind for our team. MARK KASHMAN: Do you have – because you work on OneDrive, you most likely use it as much as I do, on a daily basis – you know, if people listening to this, if there was something that's either a recent innovation or something that people, you know, might be just one or two clicks in, and they should know about it, or if it's staring them in the face and – you know, we just want to increase, we know how many times people are using it. Is there any recent or relevant tip or trick of using OneDrive, of just something that you actually use, each and every day, and – and really enjoy? GAIA CARINI: Yeah, I can start. I have the exciting announcement, as of yesterday. We reached 100% on our file backup, also known as Known Folder Move, for macOS. This feature is something I use every day, across both my Windows PC and my Mac, basically to ensure that all my files on my desktop and my documents folder are in OneDrive, and I can access them across devices, from my phone, if I'm out. And so it's something we've had on Windows for a long time, and we used – we're really focused on continuing to improve that experience as well. And yeah, as of yesterday, we got to 100% in production on macOS, and it's been something that our team has been working on for a while, and really excited about that. MARK KASHMAN: Well, congratulations. KFM on Mac is not a small feature to – to build and deliver. Now, it's up to our customers to actually take advantage of it. GAIA CARINI: Yeah, so we're really looking forward to the feedback on that. MARK KASHMAN: That's great. Katy, any particular feature or capability that you love about OneDrive, that you use? KATY ERLANDSON: I think mine also has to be KFM. It's not something that I think about appreciating every day, but just the fact that I don't have to worry about what files are where, on what device. I mean, I'm constantly working on multiple devices every day. I have three going, most days. So the fact that they're all in sync with where my files are, I know that, you know, I can find a certain spec on my desktop, every time. It's easy, I like it. MARK KASHMAN: You both keep saying this word, spec. And I'm thinking, maybe we can put all of your specs in your OneDrive for Consumer, and we can share that folder so that the world can sync all of your specs. Do you think that's a good idea? KATY ERLANDSON: Probably not. GAIA CARINI: I do have every single file I own—both in my personal life and in my work life—in my OneDrive. Now, of course, whether that's in my personal account or my work account is really important, but yeah, I wouldn't be able to function at all without my OneDrive. Since you told us to go beyond just sync, I'll tell you one of my other favorite features I use a ton, especially even both at work and outside of work. I love using the PDF signing feature from the mobile app. I feel like that's something that not everyone might know about, but it's so, so useful, so you don't have to print something out and sign it. For folks listening, if you haven't checked that out, you definitely should. KATY ERLANDSON: And the PDF scan. I think that's my favorite one – GAIA CARINI: Yeah. KATY ERLANDSON: My favorite non-sync feature would be the PDF scan. GAIA CARINI: Yeah, totally, the PDF scan and then sign, both, whether you're using them together or separate, yeah, for sure. MARK KASHMAN: That's awesome, I – I think I'm mentioning the same feature. I was just going to say, real quickly, my favorite features is on the OneDrive mobile, and it's when using the expense tool. Sometimes you have a receipt that requires it to be in the system, and I use OneDrive religiously because I typically create a folder for each event that I attend, or each travel, and so I collect my PowerPoints and my videos, and all the – kind of the marketing stuff, but then, inevitably, I have a meal out, and I've got my – my folio from the hotel and all those things. And I immediately as soon – much sooner than later, I will go into OneDrive, navigate through, sometimes through my Add to OneDrive for these next-gen events folder, and I go to the folder of the event, and then I just save it, and you know, I do a – basically a scan, a document scan of the receipt, and it's very easy to give it a name, put it in the right folder, and then I'm ready to put it in the expense tool when I return. And it does a great job of cropping the receipt, no matter form the – the receipt is in, and it just puts it – you know, again, kind of in the most compliant space for me, OneDrive, and then is very then easy to upload into that expense tool for each expense report. So thank you for – for building off of Office Lens, but I think taking it to a level of real usability. It's very easy. GAIA CARINI: Yeah, I agree, the Clutch feature. We don't thank the mobile team enough for that one. MARK KASHMAN: Yeah, I mean, honestly, whoever did the Office Lens integration did such a nice job because what you described, around PDF markup, the inking capabilities, you know, that's next level. If you haven't ever done that, it really is – there's a lot that you can accomplish, and it's not a hard-to-use feature. It's really friendly. Well, thank you for giving us a lot to think about, and to kind of answer this Twitter question in a really nice long form to learn about it and more, especially, you know, kind of the – to get your head on where the team is going, and you know, the best ways to navigate through from an IT perspective, for the benefit of end users. I know that you always – you and your teammates always have the customer in mind for the experience, but also for change management. It's very, very – very important. So thank you both for hopping off of Twitter and coming to the Intrazone. GAIA CARINI: Yeah, thanks for having us. KATY ERLANDSON: Yeah, thanks so much. (Music.) MARK KASHMAN: Now you know the difference of using the feature Add to OneDrive, what it does, bringing your shared libraries closer to home within your OneDrive domain, easy access, and how it balances the ways that you might adjust, syncing directly from a Teams Site or directly from a Teams' team. Just Add to OneDrive and then you can get all the sync goodness and more. Always great to hear directly from the product team, and of course, it's based on that feedback that you've got that I want some clarity on how these things work and what they are. So I really appreciate having Gaia and Katy come in and share all of that insight, plus the insights into how they designed the product, going forward, which I think brings a lot of value—I hope—to you, in your use of OneDrive, going forward. So let's talk about events. I really just have two events and then a little tickler about what I know about is coming in 2023, without some specific dates. But to round out the year, next up, very soon, at the end of November, is the European SharePoint Conference. This is from November 28th to December 1st, in Copenhagen, Denmark, at the Bella Center. There's going to be four Microsoft keynotes, one with Jeff Teper, another with Scott Hanselman. Karuana Gatimu will have a keynote, and then there will be a developer keynote with Vesa Juvonen. Of course, there are breakout sessions with Microsoft, Microsoft MVPs and community leads. There's "Ask the Experts," which is a really great one-to-one/one-to-few, just individual chat, "I have a question … here's an answer … or here's some feedback, please listen." Those are always great, and I will be doing three of those, and I know my peers across Microsoft and a lot of our MVPs are taking that time to support the ATEs as well. And at the European SharePoint Conference there's a really fun "Ask Microsoft Anything," with all of the Microsoft speakers in attendance to answer questions with a SharePoint Connect. This is a nice evening event, sponsored by Microsoft, and we're really pleased and privileged to be in Copenhagen to represent our teams, but also to be a part of the community, engaging in Copenhagen. Literally the next week, in Las Vegas, is the Microsoft 365 Conference. This is from December 6th through the 8th, again, in Vegas. It's co-located with a couple of events, so you'll see a few other events in the same exact location at the MGM Hotel. There are a number of Microsoft keynotes. You'll first hear from Scott Guthrie, followed by Jeff Teper. You can imagine the value there, with some of the broader leadership across those broad product portfolios of Azure and Microsoft 365. And similar to a lot of great events, it'll dive into then a lot of breakout sessions, workshops, differing ways to engage. There are of course booths and expo halls, and all of that, to get up to speed with what partners offer, and just a lot of time to network, across both these events. Whether you're in Denmark, whether you're in Nevada, you have really, really nice back-to-back offerings, and the Microsoft 365 Conference is always a really nice event to plug into and get the depth of knowledge you need, and to get answers and provide feedback so that you can have that nice two-way engagement of the community. So a little teaser ahead into 2023. These aren't really solid dates, but I know that the 365 Educon team has a number of events in 2023, in Washington, DC, in Seattle, in Chicago. There's the European Collaboration Summit. There's of course different events from the Microsoft 365 Conference team, focused on events on the Power Platform. There will be unique moments for things like Viva and Syntex, and of course, expect some of the larger first-party events that Microsoft put son, like Build, Inspire and Ignite, which has already got the data on it. If you're interested in Ignite, that's November 15th through the 16th, 2023, which feels like a long time from now, but I can already feel that some of the engines internally are warming up into what does that event look like. So 2023 is certainly going to be a great year for events. It's something that we, in the broad teams that I represent here, just in referencing, very much look forward to, in plugging in, to round up 2022 with ESPC22, and Microsoft 365 Conference, and then gearing up to have a great 2023, of which of course, Chris and I will always keep you informed on every episode with ones that are upcoming. (Music.) We want to thank our guests, Gaia and Katy, for being on the show, and for giving us insights about the value and future of Add to OneDrive. So if you haven't ever added to OneDrive, this episode is the encouragement that you needed. It's a really great feature, and we really appreciate having Gaia and Katy on to explain it, and to also give guidance and a little bit of a look ahead. We encourage you to check out our show page for the links to all of what was discussed today, and more. You can go to aka.ms/theintrazone, and send us your questions, send us your feedback, whether it's to the SharePoint team, or the OneDrive team, or pretty much anybody here at Microsoft. I'll navigate to what it is that you're looking for, as best as I can. Just email us at theintrazone@microsoft.com, or find us on Twitter @sharepoint, @onedrive and @mkashman with a K. Remember to rate, review and tell all your friends about the show. This really is the way that we hope to get the word even more broad, to anyone that you know, that you work with, friends, peers, partners, customers that would benefit from the knowledge that we aim to share through this show. We hope that you can encourage other people to follow, and of course, you can get this show where you get your other favorite tech podcasts. Thank you so much for listening. I'm your host, Mark Kashman. This has been The Intrazone, a show about the Microsoft 365, add to cart, Intelligent Intranet. END

For those who might have missed it, there was an awesome hybrid event happening in Phoenix, Arizona last week: PCMA EduCon: We Are Better Together! As anticipated, it was a huge success and the Event Brew hosts are here to tell the story. Will, Thuy, and Nick revisit PCMA EduCon 2021 and share three different perspectives: one of a co-host, one of a virtual attendee, and one of an educated outside observer. What went right and what went wrong? They spill it all!
To continue with the podcast relaunch on our second show, we were able to meet for a second time with Sherrif Karamat, President & CEO of PCMA as well as with Greg O'Dell, Chairman of the 2019 PCMA Board of Directors. We caught up with them at PCMA's EduCon in Los Angeles. This time we covered a wide range of topics, but we focused on two important topics in both the world and within the meetings industry today. First was a discussion of diversity and inclusion, and the benefits of diverse skills and points of view in creating successful events. The second topic was human trafficking, and how raising the awareness in our industry and can provide a huge increase in opportunities to recognize and stop this serious international issue. TRANSCRIPT: JON: Welcome back to the podcast. I'm Jon Trask, I’m your host and I'm here with Sheriff Karamat, the President and CEO of PCMA, and Mr. Greg O’Dell, the chairman of the 2019 PCMA Board of Directors. So welcome, gentlemen. GREG: Thank you, Jon. SHERRIF: Thank you for having us. JON: I'm very happy to see you again. We talked recently up at WEC in Toronto, and now we're down in Los Angeles at your EduCon. SHERRIF: Yeah, the world we live in is exciting, isn't it? So now in Los Angeles, wow. JON: We're just jetting all over. And that's one of the things that I've actually always appreciated about our business is the opportunity to travel and see places and get to go, places I might not normally get to go to on my own. SHERRIF: Yes, and experience many different cultures, different cities. JON: Absolutely, yeah, it's been a great part of the business for me. And you guys are having a great event here it seems. Just to touch on that briefly before we dive into the real topics. SHERRIF: Absolutely. I, you know, I love EduCon. It's event that we actually really get to visit with people. It's just a manageable size. And this year, bit larger than normal. Our largest EduCon in history. About 950 participants JON: Very nice. SHERRIF: And we've been creating some really interesting experiences. And I've been enjoying LA as well. Look at this city, it's vibrant. So, I have this thing that I'm comparing PCMA to LA. And so, here's my comparison…I absolutely think there's a renaissance, there's a transformation, there's a revival going on with the city. And I think it mirrors with all the exciting things that are happening at the PCMA. And so that's, that's my comparison is to, to a city and an organization that's on the move. JON: Both of them coming together. SHERRIF: Absolutely. JON: Yeah, this this area, I mean, I'm a native of Southern California. And this was not an area that you would necessarily want to visit around the convention center. Even a decade ago, it doesn't seem. And so what they've done here, with the expansion and growth and the hotels, and all of that is really, really changed the whole complexion of this part of the city, GREG: I would just echo two (of) Sherrifs comments from LA’s perspective and all the partners. You know, it's interesting before PCMA EduCon started, they had another major event here with the BET experience. And so, the transformation that happened from that event to ours was seamless. And I think, you know, hats off to the LA team. And they've been amazing and supportive hosting this event as well. JON: They're very good, very accustomed to large, high profile events and working through them. I know, I did something at the event deck over here at LA Live a few years back, and it was the same time as a basketball game, and the Disney Radio Awards going on in the theater. And yet, you know, everything flowed smoothly and worked out really well. GREG: That's right. JON: So, what we were really going to talk about today, though, is when we were in Toronto, we talked about like numbers and data and things around the meetings, and I wanted to maybe talk with you a little bit more about the human side of the business. And I know there's an initiative that you started the Ascent Initiative. And I did a little bit of reading on that, and about inclusion and diversity within our industry. So I thought that would be where we could start today talking about that diversity and inclusion. SHERRIF: Sure. So, you know, you actually get an extra point on my radar today, because you said the word inclusion before you said diversity. Because for me, diversity is an outcome of being inclusive. And so PCMA is all inclusiveness and it's about inclusiveness, because that's the way we learn, and we challenge the status quo more than ever. Without actually been being inclusive, you will never know everything. And the more perspectives the more diverse backgrounds, the more different mindsets that we bring to the table…And we grow, we learn, we create better experiences. So PCMA has started the Ascent Program for a number of reasons. And the CEO pledge. And one was looking at diversity and inclusion, and so forth in a different lens; and we looked at SAP Users, SAP today is the most diverse company in the world, because it was the most inclusive company in the world. And it is, it's labeled that simply because not because they will be altruistic and good. They actually had a need, and they had a need in computation, and mathematics. And they had, they had complex mathematical problems that they had to solve. And they couldn't find people that could help them solve this problem. Well guess how they went about it, they actually, they went, went looking. And then what they discovered was that people with autism actually had incredible mathematical and computational skills. So, they started hiring people on the autism spectrum. Today, SAP has more than 250 people working in their employment, that are on the autism spectrum. And talk about inclusion…But it was this notion that you can do good, but it's good for business. And that has actually served their pocketbooks and they're bottom line, much better than then just you know, going to some traditional route. So, inclusiveness has many forms, many, many ways that you can be inclusive. But we've got to look beyond race, and gender and so forth, and really truly think of what inclusiveness is all about. So that we can bring different perspectives and different ideas. JON: That's, that's been something that, that I've got a personal education on a little bit over the past few years, because I've been, I had some surgeries on my back. And I've been getting around with a cane and had some mobility issues. And you, you start to learn a lot of things you didn't realize, when you're not exactly the same person that you were a year before. And you have these challenges of maybe walking a long distance or something, and you get into a huge facility and signage and things like that. So, it really opened my eyes personally, few years back, and I've talked to someone who's shown up in year convene magazine, Joan Eisenstodt. I've interviewed Joan a few times about that, and actually taken her class where she will put people in the experience of having some challenge, and let them kind of walk in those shoes. And I think doing that is very eye opening to people. So that's one thing that I recommend is trying to look at the world from some other perspectives. And thinking about that. GREG: I mean, I agree. Everything with Sherrif said and I think inclusion so important. But you know, the reality on the last point you just made, you know, there are there are real diversity issues. And I think people's bottom line or company's bottom lines are better serve when they actually serve that diversity audience. The best way to do that is to have diversity within. And so, I think we had one of the most powerful, amazing speakers today, Tamika Catchings, who happened to be African American and happened to be a woman. But I think everyone in that room who experienced it today saw her compelling story first. But there are those who resonate with her for those reasons as well. And so, I think it's important that we recognize that but also in an inclusive manner. SHERRIF: So, I'm just going to add to that one as in terms of performance of companies. Companies that are inclusive and are diverse; as a result, performed 41% better than companies that are not; return on investment, return on equity. So, it is just it is, you know, the data is there to support the fact. So, I also want to touch it, but your issue and your back. And so, we want what I like about the nomenclature today that's changing is sort of, we used to say people with disability. Right, and it's such a terrible term. What about people with special abilities? Right? Because they do have; so, think of the autism spectrum. We would (say), oh, they’ve got a disability? No, no, no, they've got a remarkable ability. And it's, it's just about being inclusive and understanding that we understand that these people Tamika this morning that you reference her, and her hearing challenges that she faced and that created a lot of other adversities for her. And it's, it's so I mean, how she broke those barriers down. I mean, it takes a very special person. But you know, I don't know, I think that we, shedding light to these issues is so important, talking about them in a non-threatening way. And, and I go back to the old line, you know, when we meet face to face…So, I think that…I wonder what if people never saw to Mika if they only saw a black woman. And when you saw her today, actually, you just saw just a wonderful individual. You couldn't give it any care about race or gender, just a person. JON: Right, someone who's done amazing things. SHERRIF: Yeah. And you want to, you know…just love this person, because of just that. You're just a wonderful… So I think that it just allows you to break down those barriers. JON: And so in in a perfect world, I was trying to trying to come up with a way to put a bow on this and put it together into something what does an inclusive event look like in a perfect world? To you? How would you describe that? How do people do the best job to do that? SHERRIF: Well I, first of all is be open to different ideas. And we have different, doing different things, but also be open to different people and different cultures and different…but different geography as well. And so, just allow that to happen so that those ideas can come. So, one way you can do that is by crowdsourcing ideas, just understand. So just a simple using technology as one way; two is just actually being very deliberate about it. And I think we do have to do, I'm a person that don't believe in quotas, but if we need them to just to get to where we need to go with them. Maybe that's something that you do. But I think that if we're deliberate, very deliberate, we’ll realize that we maybe don't need the quotas, because we're seeing the benefits of, and then suddenly we’ll be diverse. But sometimes we've got to go to extreme measures in order to make things happen. JON: Kind of have to swing the pendulum far to one way? GREG: I just want to add to that, because I think it's a compelling point. You know, one of the things, I'll give you a great example, this morning, we had our nextup, which was a mashing of our legacy society and our board members with our 20s in their 20s. And, you know, in a traditional sense, you would think this is an opportunity for the 20s in their 20s. To hear from the more tenured members. But in fact, you know, what we talked about, and that we were very explicit about is that we learned as much from them as they learned from us. And a great example that I gave was technology. So, we all had to adapt, the three of us had to adapt to technology, whereas it’s all the known in certain aspects of technology. And so, if nothing else, we learn quicker from them about how to utilize that technology in events, or how we're going to educate people leveraging that technology. So, I think its diversity of thought, but also an age demographic, but also geographic, all those things that I think PCMA is being very deliberate, whether it's matched up, or whether it's seeing people of color, who giving, providing the content, or otherwise I think, it's very deliberate, and very compelling. And that was what I think is success from what I would define a success. JON: Excellent. Um, the other part of this conversation was really around the human trafficking that you guys have pledged on. So that's with ECPAT? Yeah, ECPAT USA. And there was something called the CODE. SHERRIF: Yes, absolutely. JON: So talk a little bit about that. SHERRIF: So, let's just first talk about ECPAT, and it's, it's, it's one organization, but it's one that we really have vetted, and just look at what they're doing to raise awareness and curb human trafficking, if not completely eradicate it. And, and what PCMA has done is that with Maritz Global Events, we actually, they have been this been a big cause. And big initiative on behalf of America global events. And, you know, that they thought that our industry could actually play a key role in in driving the goal. So, I want to give them a lot of credit for starting this. And PCMA, said, you know, you're absolutely right, why couldn't we help. And so, we really got behind it, our foundation actually donated monies towards ECPAT. We have done projects around human trafficking. And we did the code, signed the code, and then actually did training for our employees. And we're going to take that on the road at our events so that we can train people, so they can understand how to recognize the signs of people that are in distress. And so, David Peckinpaugh, the president of Maritz, when he approached us and approached me, I said to David, that PCMA will get fully behind and fully vested in this providing Greg and our board was behind it. But it was a no brainer for them. They just said, of course. But I said, you know, what, it's bigger than all of us. So, we should get more people involved. And, we went to the EIC, the events industry council and said that all the industry organization should be involved, this should be this should be a plank of the EIC. And it should also though be a plank of others. So, Marianne signed the code, Arnie Sorensen signed the code. We are doing activation as a part of one of the trends that we are bigger than oneself, we have used the human trafficking issue, to show that we can have a bigger impact than just one individual on human trafficking. So, let me put that into context. company like Marriott, Maritz, Events, DC, PCMA, with all the employees and all the people that we bring together, think of the eyes that we can bring to the issue. And thus, we can recognize if there's something going wrong, if we make them aware how to recognize those issues. So, that's, we want to amplify this, we want to raise the awareness level as much as possible, we actually think of human trafficking as happening in Bangkok, and other areas, but it's happening in our local communities all around the country. And we actually, every community needs to pay attention to this. JON: Makes sense? I know, when I was doing some research on this, that there are some resources and things if you can go to like the code.org. And pull up things like contract clauses to put into your RFP’s is to make sure that you're discussing this with your properties and your vendors, when you're coming into something. And I discovered a lot of that through this research with PCMA. So, it's helped me already start to think about things a little bit different way. GREG: And you know, and I was going to say, and I, you know, from my perspective, and I'll confess, I wasn't well versed on this topic. And so, I'm glad when Sherrif brought this to our attention. But, in many ways, it's not even about pressuring people…people just aren't aware of this issue, right? So, I think it's an awareness campaign in many respects. And I think we are the most compassionate industry I know. And I think once people understand the problem, and they're willing to solve a problem, I think it's been great to build that awareness. And then people are compelled to act. So, I've been personally humbled by learning first about it, because I wasn't aware. But also, to be proactive, and what we can do about it as an industry. So, it's been, it's been great to see the proactive behavior of our industry, and certainly a credit share for leading PCMA, not just jumping on the bandwagon, but having to lead this. JON: And we really do have a lot of eyes in this industry. There's a lot of people who can be watching out for this issue. And just bringing an awareness of it, it's kind of interesting, because I think both of these topics that we've talked about are really about awareness, and how, as an industry, we've started to pay attention to some things that we just didn't think about before. SHERRIF: Well, you know, we also did the hackathon here for homelessness. And as we talk about homelessness is a symptom of a deeper societal issue. Right? Or, and or a human issue. And so how are we treating the deeper, deeper issue, but being aware of what the symptom is, is helps you to dig deeper, and PCMA really, really believes, this is our DNA that business events are going to drive business, no question about it. And it needs to. We need to have better employment opportunities for all our people. But business event should also do good for people, and our communities or local communities. And so, we're going to take every opportunity to inform, educate…not tell people how to get there, but actually highlight the problem and sort of because different people might choose different avenues to get there. And we want them to choose the vehicle that's best for them. But we want to make sure that we're all sort of saying, “this is the end goal”. But we can get there differently. And so, there are many other issues that we need to deal with. I want to highlight and I think it's something that you and I talked about previously was about the HIV AIDS issue and in Australia, and the fact that we use the business event to actually make them change their laws in their country, to allow people with HIV and AIDS to come into that country. I think it's pretty phenomenal. But what was even more exciting and interesting is that the country and the government and industry has made a commitment that they want to eradicate HIV and AIDS by 2030. And they're working. And that's creating new jobs and creating research, and all sorts of different industries because of their commitment; and because of an event. JON: Because of an event that started it all. So, we can be a real catalyst for change within this industry by starting something… SHERRIF: We are, we are, and we've got to recognize that this is what we, this is why. And this might be changing our conversation a little bit. But this is why we need to focus on why we do what we do, not what we do. And when we focus on the why we’ll understand that; yeah, we might be bringing people together…but why were we bringing them together? And we are bringing together where we are, maybe look make maybe using simple lenses to solve complex problems. But when we come together, we can do this. I am convinced, and I am convinced that science alone is not going to solve human issues. It’s people, it’s science, it’s data; it takes it all…And inclusion, right? JON: Yeah, those diverse perspectives, those people coming in from different angles are where you get the best ideas sometimes. So absolutely. But this is exactly what I wanted to talk about. Because I came out of the last talk with you so inspired, and I just had a feeling that this area would be the same. Same inspirational feeling. And it's just really nice to consider the possibilities. And see that PCMA is behind this idea of moving us forward not just as a business, but as humans and as people and making things work better for everyone. SHERRIF: I, categorically believe that we have a responsibility any leader, whether you're the leader of events, DC or the chairman of PCMA, or you are a local community leader. If you're going to be a leader, then you need to be responsible. And you have the opportunity in front of you to make a difference. And we've got to do it. And we actually bring together more than any other industry people in this world, that can make a difference. So, the opportunity is limitless. And we need to create better jobs for people. We need to create better lives for people. And we all need to grow, all those things the business events industry can do. And PCMA is committed to that. JON: It's an amazing legacy to leave. And I hope we can all do that. SHERRIF: Jon, thank you so much, as always. JON: Thank you, I appreciate you both being here today. And it's been great talking to you. GREG: So nice to talk to you. JON: And until next time. We'll see you on the podcast. Thank you for listening

EdSurge has been all over the place these last few weeks— from the Educon conference in Philadelphia to Washington D.C. for Teach for America’s 25th anniversary Summit. And in each place, the conversations have been anything but boring. When it comes to big themes, one particular conversation caught our attention. Summit Public Schools CEO Diane Tavenner and founder of Deans for Impact Benjamin Riley went head to head on whether “personalized learning” is the answer to solving the achievement gap. We were there to catch a few sound bytes.
