757CIO Virtual Event: Cloud Migrations

​Dear 757CIO Members,

​Our February in-person event M365 Migration sparked great discussion — and even more questions. We wanted to bring Martin Gale back to help answer questions that came from the conversation and dive a little deeper. This virtual follow-up is built around the questions that surfaced in the room and the real-world challenges you are navigating right now.

​Questions we will dig into

• ​How do you identify and engage the right stakeholders early — and what does "close enough to care" look like in practice at different org sizes?

• ​What does a realistic migration assessment process look like, and how do you categorize and classify data before a single file moves?

• ​How do you build a repeatable migration framework that also helps control ongoing cloud consumption costs?

• ​What are the most common planning failures that derail technically sound migrations — and how do you course correct mid-project?

• ​When does a phased migration make sense versus a full cutover, and how do you make that call with leadership?
