Many great SharePoint Saturdays are coming up later this year in Europe and all over the world. I think it is time for me to take a break from public speaking.
The biggest struggle I always over the last couple of years to find topics. Topics people are interested to hear. On the other hand, great people of the community came to me asking if I can do a session about this or about that. Special thanks to Serge Luca and Daniel Laskewitz. Recommendations are always welcome too.
I’m looking forward to next weeks TUGA IT conference in Portugal. I’m pretty honoured and excited and it will be the first time I visit Portugal at all.
During this conference, I will hold a full day branding workshop gives you an insight into modern web design and development covering the following topics.
Last weekend I had the great opportunity to speak at the SharePoint Saturday Stockholm for the very first time. This event is really great because I already attended the last two events too, and it was a great time to visit this beautiful city as well as meet some friends.
On Saturday I had my session in a packed full room and sorry for the people who had to stand at the back. A big thanks to all the attendees.
Today I had the great pleasure to record a webinar for SharePoint Europe. Actually, it was not a new session, it more hat the purpose to show people how I develop now in SharePoint. Especially how my branding workflow nowadays looks like. I use now SASS for all my branding in SharePoint, because it has a lot of benefits in manner of consistency, reusability and fundability of CSS changes and adoption.[Read more]

This week I had the honor to present three sessions at the German SharePoint Conference in Erding. It was the first time that I ever had three sessions at just on the conference, which was pretty challenging but I enjoyed it.
Well. At the beginning of this year I am not expecting so many speaking engagements this year. In addition to the European SharePoint conference that take place in Stockholm from 9th to 12th of November there are two new events coming up.
The SharePoint Saturday Munich happen on 10th of October and has a really amazing line up of speakers. I pretty excited that my session was picked an I am able to speak there.
Only seven days later, on 17th of October, I will travel to Oslo again for another SharePoint Saturday to speak at. I have never been to Oslo before, so I’m really looking forward to a great event.
Last but not least the European SharePoint Conference running from 9th to 12th of November will be the biggest event for me to speak so far.
Actually, there were some really great announcements during the last weeks. The keynote on “The Modern Workplace: Evolution of SharePoint and Office 365” to this event will be held by Jeff Teper, Seth Petton and Bill Bear.
During this conference Jeremy Thake will host a Hackathon for “Build amazing add-ins for Office and SharePoint in Office 365“. This event happens on Tuesday the 10th of November.

Pretty honored to announce that I will speak at Europe’s largest SharePoint and office 365 event in Stockholm Sweden from 9th-12th November 2015.
I will be conducting a session on “Make SharePoint SASSy” aimed at Developers.
CSS can get overly complex and unwieldy very quickly—resulting in thousands of lines of CSS code across many files, yielding errors and becoming a maintenance nightmare! Believe me… there is a better way! SASS (“Syntactically Awesome Style Sheets”) is fast becoming the preferred approach in developing CSS! SASS is an extension to CSS that arms you with programming features, such as variables, functions, loops and many more. Join me to learn SASS and move from a complete novice to someone who knows where SASS fits and how to use it with SharePoint.
In this session, you will learn:
What SASS is and how to use it.
If you want a comprehensive breakdown of the latest innovations on all workloads of Office 365, and SharePoint is one of them, including the inside scoop on SharePoint 2016 and Office 365 Next Gen Portals as well as practical, actionable advice on how to leverage the cloud, SharePoint, Yammer, the Office Graph, Delve and much more to the best of your ability then European SharePoint Conference 2015 is a must in your calendar!
Prices start as low as €1100! There is also special group discounts for bookings of 3 or more people.

Last Saturday I had the great opportunity to speak at the SharePoint Point Saturday Belgium in Antwerp. It was my first public speaking, I ever did. First, I like to thank the whole SPS Belgium team to make this happen. It was a great event at the ALM. It was a beautiful location.
My session is about SASS and how it fits into your modern SharePoint branding and development approach. The session is entitled “Stop your SharePoint CSS become a di-SASS-ter today!” and covers the following key takeaways.
– I will explain what SASS is and where you would use it.
– How to use SASS to brand SharePoint without requiring lengthy deployments.
– How to create simple Rich Text Editor Styles using mixins and includes.
– How to apply a Grid layout and make it Responsive.
– How to structure your branding correctly to make it more maintainable.
– How CSS 4 fits into the picture and does it make SASS obsolete?
