Intranet Manager role: evolve or devolve? - Jane McConnel

Will it evolve? Will the intranet manager role grow deeper, go higher and become more strategic in the spirit of “survival of the fittest”?

Will it devolve? Will the tasks and responsibilities be passed on to business managers and users in the organization? I like this definition of devolve: “to delegate something to someone else; to be inherited by someone; a slow degradation”. (Wiktionary)

Summer, the best time to review your Intranet strategy |

Now that the summer is just around the corner, there is no better time to review your Intranet strategy.  Summer tends to be a slower time for business because of vacations and postponed projects.  For the next couple months people are out of the office more, decisions are postponed and the office tends to have a more relaxed vibe. This is a perfect opportunity to look at your Intranet and the processes that ac...

The secret second reason why your intranet news goes unread | kilobox communiqué

We know the number one reason people find your intranet superfluous to requirements; irrelevant information. The ‘news’ stories are often Company focussed (what ‘we’ need to tell ‘you’, the little people) rather than ‘people focussed’ (what ‘you’ need to know to get stuff done).

We know that if an intranet, or the content, ain’t useful then it ain’t used! But what about the secret, number two, insidious reason?

Intranet phrases you should know

Even if you’re a seasoned intranet professional, there’s always something you haven’t heard before. Sometimes, the very nature of the intranet (being internally focused and heavily customized to your corporate culture) lends itself to being cut off from the outside world.

Intranet Management: Divine Comedy or Strategic Imperative?

According to Dante in his Divine Comedy the inscription above the door to Hades reads “Abandon hope all ye who enter here”. For many this could also be the sign on the home page of their organisation’s intranet as, with business-critical decisions to make, they begin the daily hunt for information that they are sure should be somewhere in the application.

It could just as easily be the sign on the door of the intranet manager of the organisation, though this door usually also carries a number of other job descriptions, all of which seem to be given more priority by the organisation than the care and development of the intranet. Most organisations of any size will have a full-time web manager, often with a support team, but this is rarely the case with the intranet.

As the intranet manager, I’m looking for ways to devolve control, power, permissions (however you think of them) to more and more people. Communications isn’t the sole remit of the Internal Communications team – communication is everyone’s responsibility; it’s necessary for everyday work and the intranet can be part of that.
