I’d be interested in the views of the community as to whether they think that delivering SharePoint projects is:
- Art
- Science
- Something Else…
I’m still wrestling with my views, on the one hand a lot of aspects of SharePoint that I am personally involved in are very much evolving, I tend to see them in an art or even artisan way, however there is also a huge amount of what I would class as ‘science’ that underpins my consulting, especially around complexity theory, organisational dynamics and those kind of aspects.
What do you think?
Does it matter?
Is it a mixture?
Do these concepts affect how you approach SharePoint delivery?
Thanks Eric,yes a very good answer, I’d agree with you.
What is interesting is whether one [SharePoint] person can do both i.e. be the artist and the scientist in a SharePoint project?
