Episode 96 of the #MVPbuzzChat series. Conversation between Microsoft Regional Director and MVP Christian Buckley (@buckleyplanet), Founder & CEO of CollabTalk LLC, and Sharon Weaver (@sharoneweaver), a newly-minted Microsoft Regional Director, Microsoft Certified Trainer, Six Sigma Black Belt, and Founder and CEO of Smarter Consulting based in the Kansas City, Kansas area. Recorded in June 2020. In this episode, Sharon and I begin with her appointment to the Microsoft Regional Director (RD) program and talk about the differences between the MVP and RD programs. We discuss path into the program, which includes a fairly extensive technical and community resume. Sharon talks about her passion for the Power Platform and collaboration tools (SharePoint, Microsoft Teams), but we also cover wide-ranging topics such as family, the impacts of no-travel due to COVID on her business, her favorite science fiction authors, and how her management style has adjusted to working from home.
