Transitioning Your Intranet to a Digital Workplace

In the past, NetApp allowed every department and group to create their own Intranet site on whatever platform they wanted. Feedback started to roll in saying that their Intranets were difficult to navigate, the process was confusing, everything was a mess! The employees were right. An Intranet strategy was needed and a committee was created. The committee decided that they needed one unified Intranet across the organization. However, with no budget available, this was a tall order.

This session will outline what many organizations are going through – turning separate intranets into one unified hub for all employees throughout the organization. Discover how a small team of individuals with support from management and a need for change created a low cost solution, including how to:

• Understand what your employees want and need
• Collaborate with other departments such as IT, HR, and Communications
• Gain support from management
• Pursue creative ideas, even when your budget is limited or nonexistent
