WHY ARE MOST INTRANETS
STILL NOT MORE
ADVANCED?

11. 11
Simple reasons, deep impact …
Intranet
Defined, limited scope
Defined responsibility within an
existing structure
Little changes in «way of working»
Little changes to command and
communication chain
Operated within industrial age
paradigms
Digital Workplace
The sky is the limit
Creates a whole new «discipline»
Requires a new way of thinking and
working
Enterprise 2.0 at its best
Transformation into a Digital
Business

Questions we never seemed to ask
• «What is the nature of work in a
post-industrial age?»
• «How do we deal with resources
that we have in over-abundance?»
• «What tasks matter most for the
success of our company?»

THE BUSINESS CASE FOR THE
DIGITAL WORKPLACE

20. 20
Dear Mr. CEO …
… we have a 25+%
productivity issue in
information work …
… that affects 60+% of
our employees – and
100% of management …
… especially in the tasks
most that are relevant
for our (future) success
…
… and also affects
employee engagement,
creativity, innovation,
attractiveness for new
hires …
… plus our ability to
execute business
strategy!
Oh, and the competition
hasn’t realized that they
have the same problem
as well, yet …
