Yes, another challenge for those of us that work in the IT department! Just what we wanted, right? We're spending all this time reworking the corporate Intranet so everyone can collaborate better. What happens when we're done and no one shows up?
It could be tempting to conclude that because your employees enjoy keeping a personal blog or spending time with contacts on social networking sites like Facebook and LinkedIn, that they would want to participate in an internal corporate version of those sites. But don't be so sure.
A new study has found that the phenomenon of social networking and collaboration does not yet have a natural extension behind the enterprise firewall.
Can't we just get a break?
Seriously though, I'm curious how your office Intranet is doing? Have you recently added collaboration and social networking tools to your server? If so, how well is the improved server working for you? What recommendations do you have for others to follow? Inquiring minds want to know!
