Make customer service your 'secret source' of cool intranet content

Interrogate Your IT Department for Useful Intranet Content

Remember when internal communications people  talked about the ‘paperless office’? No? Well, it doesn’t matter anyway, because we’ve all changed out mind now. Staff still love hitting print, so the office printer can stay. But hey – here’s a nutty idea. Since we’re stuck with these huge beige elephants, what say we actually figure out how to use them? The nerds in your IT department are the only people in your organisation who’ve actually read the office printer’s manual, and know to properly use it.So...

KISS: Keep Intranet Statistics Simple!

I may be irritating KPI-addicts, mathematicians, or other people who like counting, measuring and comparing, but  what gets measured does not always get done!

Of course that requires some explanation.

When we moved from a custom-built intranet to SharePoint, we had to think about usage statistics. SharePoint could not get us the statstics in the way we wanted, so we asked a third party to develop it. We got a little carried away withe the functional requirements, with dramatic results....

Stopping knowledge leaving with the person - Mark Morrell

It is a common problem as I know from personal experience. An organisation will closely track all the physical assets that you hold – computer, phone, car, etc, – and want them returned before you leave.

But your digital assets and your intellectual assets are rarely managed so the knowledge about how your work is carried out – processes, priorities,etc. – and the right contacts are lost to your successor (if your replacement has not been recruited), your manager and other people you work with.

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.

3 Steps to Profiling Staff for Fast Intranet Content

Internal communication gurus love to say that businesses has gone social. Facebook! Yammer! LinkedIn! But here’s the truth: on a typical day, most staff will only interact with a very limited pool of friends.

Team profiles are great for two reasons: Firstly, people love to read about people they know. They love to see ph...

Intranets are still very much alive! « Mark Morrell intranet pioneer

I read with interest the blog posts by Tony Byrne ‘Death of the Intranet‘ and by Martin White ‘Death of the Intranet: ‘The Times They are a-changin’‘. They are both interesting posts with provocative titles to catch the attention. It has caused some great discussions about intranets which is great. The biggest and most negative reaction I found has been from intranet practitioners who feel it is an over reaction and not how they see things.

Having recently been an intranet practitioner as the BT Intranet manager before becoming a consultant, I can see the subject from both points of view.
