You, Me and Dynamics GP
The last of the evaluations are due in today and I doubt that they will change much in terms of how the sessions are ranked after Convergence. When you’re at a 150 or so evaluations it takes a lot to move the numbers. So how did we do?
There are 2 overall measures of a session that get tracked. One is based on the Overall Satisfaction question scored on a 4 point scale and one is based on the Presenter Effectiveness question based on a 5 point scale.
Overall Satisfaction
For the Dynamics GP track in Overall Satisfaction, Mariano and David’s session on the Support Debugging Tool comes in at number 1, my 50 More Tips is number 2, Mariano and David’s repeat is 3 and my original 50 Tips came in at 4. All of these sessions had more than 75 evaluations and most of them were over 150 evaluations. The minimum number of evaluation is 10. 150+ very positive evaluations is incredibly cool. The separation between #1 and #4 in the the GP track was 11/100ths of a point.
These are crazy high numbers of people who enjoyed the sessions. In all of my sessions more than 50% of the people who attended filled out an evaluation. Mariano and David had similar numbers. The fact that we finished this way shows the value of MVP’s and the closeness of bloggers to the community. We eat, sleep and breathe this stuff and the passion comes through. David and Mariano rocked.
Overall Satisfaction across all sessions is tied right now between Tips for Outlook 2010 and 50 Tips for SL. Apparently the 50 Tips in 50 Minutes concept is a hit across the products. I’ll have to do something creative next year to stand out.
Presenter Effectiveness
If you though that Overall Satisfaction looked good, we killed at Presenter Effectiveness. 50 More Tips in 50 Minutes is ranked #1 for Presenter Effectiveness across all Convergence Concurrent Sessions and David and Mariano’s Support Debugging Tool session is ranked #2 across all Concurrent Sessions.
If you still can’t get enough tips for Dynamics GP after Convergence:
1) Sign up and attended Decisions 2010. This free, virtual conference is right around the corner on May 19 and 20, 2010. You can attend from your desk. I’ll be doing a session on closing the books faster at month end with Dynamics GP. MVP’s Mariano Gomez and Frank Hamelly are doing sessions as well. You don’t want to miss this.
2) Order the book. My upcoming book on Dynamics GP is now available for preorder. If you liked the 50 tips, you’ll love the book.
To everyone who attended one of my sessions, thank you for attending and thank you for the feedback. I’ve already got some ideas of how to improve things for next year.
