Hello, Kia Ora Auckland.

I’m glad to be returning to New Zealand on February 17-20 for the Difinity Conference in Auckland. I try to tell people that I’m actually 1/3 kiwi - I grew up in Auckland in my youth. So it’s always good to see you all again.


I’m presenting three topics:

February 17 Workshop: Master your inner Flow

This is an updated - all day workshop covering beginner and advanced Power Automate (Microsoft Flow). With several enhanced lab materials that you can choose to work through in the afternoon:

  • Complex Business Approvals

  • Power Apps integration

  • Data collection of Excel

  • Automating Teams

February 18 Talk: Take control of Flow and Power Apps Governance

Talk: Take control of Flow and PowerApps Governance

This is a multi-faceted look at Power Platform governance - what’s available within the Admin platform, extended with Microsoft’s Center of Excellence kit, practical guides on how to deploy CoE, and ultimately, technical ideas and examples of how we can extend CoE to provide an all encompassing governance solution.

Ultimately, there is a techincal part to governance, and there is a much much bigger human part. We will cover the technical, but leave you with ideas you must form regarding where and how you will utilize the technical components to guide your organization into the best use of this fantastic platform.

February 19 Talk: How to make everything with Microsoft Flow in 2020

This is a talk that makes you look at Power Automate (Microsoft Flow) with a totally different angle, and realize that it is not merely workflows, some email alerts, or an rule to copy a file.

Power Automate is the key to connect and enrich your entire platform investment - within Power Platform, extended to Dynamics, Office 365 or Data platform, and beyond even the Microsoft ecosystem.

You can make and automate everything with Power Automate (Microsoft Flow).


Make sure to say hello

I don’t travel a lot, so when I do visit New Zealand - come say hello, ask me anything about Flow (Automate), Power Apps, Power Governance, Office 365, Microsoft Graph, Azure. I have twenty years of consulting experience to back me up and I know solutions to many of your problems.

I hope to see you in Auckland on February 17-20 at the Difinity Conference.
