#88. Join me with Brendan Eger, an Associate Director of Information Systems and Analytics at Partners In Health in New Orleans, Louisiana, United States. Brendan’s story is a fascinating journey of a small, bootstrapped team adopting the Power Platform.
Our discussion covers:
• Knowledge sharing within teams – invest in team members in a semi-formal structured environment, sharing what they’ve just learned with their coworkers.
• Overcoming the end-user learning curve moving from Excel to Power BI.
• Why Partners in Health chose to invest in the Microsoft Power Platform.
• Unexpected benefits of the Finance team building their own app.
• The benefit of developing transferable skills during a relatively simple app build.
• Finding the balance between a small technical team and users who want to build their own apps.
