The 80-120 rule for IT Projects. « Ellen's Digital Workplace

As you will know, I have helped many colleagues with setting up SharePoint Team Sites. These could be simple project sites, mainly used for sharing documents, but also sites where important processes were facilitated. My clients were very diverse. Each initial interview was therefore exciting. What kind of person would be in front of me? The Hesitator, the System-Lover or the Ideal Partner? Or the person who inspired the 80-120 rule? Read on!

Why Adoption Rates Are Low and How to Fix It

Intranet social media can be one of the most powerful tools for internal communication. Unfortunately, the adoption rate of social media within corporations is dismally low.

Long story short, employees simply rarely take up internal social media. In fact, 72% of employees use intranet social media networks less than once a month. In comparison, most will use Facebook several times a day.

Why is that?

Lackluster social intranet? 3 things you're (probably) not doing

For years, employees have been subjected to the "Godspeed" method of their employers introducing new communication technologies to the workplace. Here's how it works:

The IT department configures the new technology, subjecting it to rigorous testing to ensure that the bits get to where they're supposed to go and that the tool works they way it's supposed to without interfering with other systems. Once they're sure the technology works right, they issue the following instructions to the workforce: "Godspeed."

3 steps to making it easier for top performers to share knowledge « Mark Morrell intranet pioneer

How do I engage employees and improve collaboration? is a question I have been addressing in my posts
Make a newbie welcome and more engaged, Integrating and engaging a newbie, How an engaged newbie can become a top performer and A top performer’s career development.

 

There isn’t one standard way to mentoring. From my experience as a mentor and running a mentoring programme, it is the personalities of the mentor and mentee (protegé), the needs of the mentee and the ways and frequency of contact between them which can create a dynamic, enriching and long relationship or quickly fizzle out to nothing.

From social intranets to collaboration ecosystems - Forbes

Social intranet is a hot topic. With the rise of social software, the next step to the enterprise social nirvana is the intranet. Hopefully, nobody is considering Facebook as a model anymore (like in “our new intranet will be like Facebook“), but there is still some confusion in what “social” stands for in the enterprise.

So first of all, let’s try to find the correct definition for “ social intranet“. Wikipedia is providing the following definition: “An intranet is a...

Humanizing companies: when technology facilitates recognition and praise

M. has worked for the same company for circa 4 decades! A lifetime devoted to one organization, witnessing its ups and downs, watching its history unfold as turbulently as that of her country. For her work and devotion she has received praise and recognition on some occasions, namely whenever a party to celebrate important dates of the organization were organized.

Some months ago, however, the team managing an internal blog-like communication platform invited her to give an interview, later published in that platform, as a way to share her story and her memories of 4 decades of work with younger colleagues.

A new social contract for creative work - Harold Jarche

In the TechCrunch article, What if this is no accident?, Jon Evans looks at the current boom in software engineering jobs in comparison to the lack of jobs elsewhere. He wonders if this is how the new economy will look for a while.

I’ve been saying for a while that simple and merely complicated work will continue to get automated and outsourced (read this post if you don’t believe it or look at this example of legal work getting automated). To keep a job in the creative economy (with core skills of Initiative, Creativity & Passion) one must become an indispensable linchpin in the organization.

Intranet Managers: reduce the company’s reliance on email - @Wedge

What does your intranet do for the company, for people? We could have a good discussion around objectives and purposes I’m sure. I have an idea for you that falls somewhere between ‘strategic’ and ‘tactical’, and it’s to reduce your company’s reliance upon email as a broad distribution tool and a pseudo-collaborative environment.

Email and attachmentsI don’t mean to suggest that email is evil, as email, like mail, is fantastic for private correspondence between two (or so) people. But as a distribution channel for documents of any kind it sucks; and email is demonstrably not a collaborative space....

Enterprise Collaboration: Six Steps to Secure Sharing

Today, the only feasible way for employees to share their competence efficiently with their colleagues is often to share it with digital means.

This applies not only to competence but also ideas, experiences and any information we need to make the right decisions Although there are many ways to share information digitally in efficient and effective ways today, as is proved daily on the social web, many of the new technologies and practices have remained fairly unexploited. This suggests that many organizations are still ignorant about the importance of sharing and its impact on their performance.

Understanding How to Create a Successful Social Intranet: 3 Tips for Optimizing Collaboration

Intranets have long been the standard for sharing secure information within an organization, but they can be challenging to manage, especially when left to one person or group, and consequently, the information could become stale or employee involvement low.

So how do we make sure our intranet is valuable and the investment maximized?
