Intranet historically has not been a cool, up-to-date concept. The reputation of intranets has never been great but instead viewed as a company necessity that doesn't get a lot of use.
Meet 2021 Intranet - your new digital workplace. Not a dumping ground for outdated, boring files or poorly formatted documents, but rather an online hub for collaboration, knowledge sharing, tools, and communication. Check out these Intranet templates to help you build the workplace intranet that works best for your company.
Let's dive into a few ways that could make your intranet shine and people engaged:
Zero in on employee experience
One of the main reasons tools go unused, or engagement subsides is a horrible employee experience. Today's employees have a very low tolerance for the counterintuitive experience. After all, we all want to get our work done, not figure out why some things take forever to load or file. To prevent employees from abandoning your company intranet, focus on employee experience. Think of intranet as a gateway into your company that helps shape, outline, and distill important information. The second intranet becomes a place where one simply uploads a file without structure, rings the alarm. Lay the system's foundation, organization, and order within your intranet that feels natural and doesn't require many follow-up questions. More is less, even with digital workplaces.
Make it social
Whether you agree with it or not, social collaboration and engagement are the essential parts of the employee's life. Finding a way to make it a part of the routine that doesn't jeopardize productivity is vital. Employees will love the build-in way to communicate and collaborate.
Add a helpful knowledge base
A key ingredient for a successful intranet experience is a valuable knowledge base. Unify all of your institutional knowledge in a single source of truth with a personalized search experience. Make it easy to capture knowledge and even easier to find when you need it. It will be a time-saver to have a place with current and updated information for anyone new to the company or as an update. Consistently reminding employees about the important information found in the knowledge base within the intranet, or even better - getting them to contribute will make it a living and breathing thing.
Don't forget about idea management
If organizations knew how many great ideas get wasted because there is no way to deliver them to the right people, they would immediately invest in idea management. No one knows the inside and out of the product like the employees. Give them a voice and a place to share ideas/solutions that could end up saving time, driving revenue, or innovation.
Intranet, aka the new digital workplace, can and should be the heart of the organization. Leave the preconceived notions of what it was behind and step towards a better, easier, and more enjoyable work experience.
