WHAT I DO…
Great, we know who you are Jeff, but what do you do on a daily basis?
Let’s get started…
FOUNDATIONS MATTER…
We have all seen the results of Intranets or technology solutions that didn’t have
a strong foundation failing to stand the test of time.
FOUNDATIONS MATTER…
Let’s discuss the right way to build an effective SharePoint Intranet from the
ground up so that we can all be more successful.
1. Aligning With Business Needs
WHAT WE WILL TALK ABOUT TODAY…
2. Setting An Effective Technology Strategy
3. Getting Key Intranet Elements Right
4. Ensure Ongoing Intranet Success
• Look first at the neighborhood: what is the business purpose, the overall context and constraints for your Intranet.
Step 1. Where will you build this?
What kind of property is it? What’s the right ‘fit’ for your needs?
Where should it be and why are you buying it?
BEFORE YOU BUILD YOU HAVE TO
KNOW WHERE & WHY…
The main purpose often is to improve collaboration or improve
collaborative outcomes.
COLLABORATION IS AN ATTITUDE…
Intranets Do Multiple Things
• Every Intranet does multiple things, and too often there is a disconnect between the intranet design goals and what users want.
Every Intranet does multiple things, and too often there is a disconnect
between the intranet design goals and what users want.
WHAT WILL YOU DO WITH YOUR INTRANET?
You can better define what your Intranet needs to do via tried and tested
approaches like workshops, personae, interviews, surveys and more.
MAPPING YOUR GOALS…
• Think more broadly about the goals for your intranet.
INTRANETS AREN’T ALONE…
You often need to think more broadly about the Intranet and it’s fit and
purpose in your digital workplace.
What if we look at our own organizations technology radar?

Collaboration is not a technology, it’s an attitude. Culture needs to also
have a plan for improving alongside the technology and Intranet.

MAKING CHOICES AND BUILDING A PLAN…
Just like when building a house we need to define our plan for the Intranet.
We need to ensure the technology foundation of our Intranet is well planned.
Technology is rarely planned in isolation, but this is especially true for SharePoint.
Your Intranet platform is meant to be used for far more than just the Intranet.

WHY?
• Best practices
SHAREPOINT PROVIDES A GREAT TECHNOLOGY FOUNDATION…
The evidence is all around us from awards to enterprise usage. 70% of
corporate intranets are developed on the SharePoint platform.
It’s a platform, an integrated suite, modern, mobile enabled, business centric,
and maximizes the impact of your Intranet investments.
WHY INTRANETS ON SHAREPOINT?

WHY INTRANETS ON SHAREPOINT?
• Bundled

• Rapid Innovation
• Platform
When it provides so much benefit it doesn’t come without some cost.
WHY INTRANETS ON SHAREPOINT?
There are real challenges that come with building an Intranet on SharePoint
that you should understand before you start.

So Intranets can be built faster, iteratively, and deliver more value…
How do we achieve that ourselves?
HOW CAN WE KEEP UP AND MOVE FASTER?
SharePoint makes iterative easier. Build Intranets in an iterative way to
deliver value faster. Agility is critical when the platform is changing.
TIME TO VALUE & NAVIGATING CHANGE…
We deliver more value in far less time today. It’s not unreasonable to expect a new modern Intranet in weeks or months instead of years.
HOW LONG SHOULD IT TAKE?
Primary drive is cost and speed or time to value. In professional service costs
alone it is typically 40% cheaper, not including hardware, maintenance and more.
SHOULD IT BE ON SERVER OR ONLINE?
THE CLOUD ENABLES US TO KEEP PACE WITH INDUSTRY TRENDS…
Continually improving experiences, continuous rollout of new capabilities,
continued integration with more technologies, and much more…
GETTING CLOSER TO THE CLOUD WILL HELP…
It is more challenging to meet modern expectations on legacy technology.

WHAT SYSTEMS DO YOU NEED TO INTEGRATE?
Another very critical area of technology planning is determining what you
want to integrate, need to integrate, and how you will integrate.
of knowledge workers regularly access 4 or more systems to get the information
they need to do their jobs
61%
regularly access 11 or more systems
of a typical knowledge worker’s day is spent looking for and consolidation information spread across a variety of systems
36%
15%
Aim to get critical mass – integrate the core systems that most people depend
on into your Intranet, and then it will be and effective hub for getting work done.
WE LIVE IN SILOS…
WHAT DOES INTEGRATION LOOK LIKE?
Make sure you understand where you need which scenarios
Common Scenarios
• Display information from external systems in UI, such as web parts, application pages, etc.
• Client/Matter dashboards
• Allow users to interact with external data in SharePoint list format
• Crawl back-end data sources so they show up in search results
• Import external data into user profiles
• Syncing data from the source system into SharePoint
Make sure you understand where you need which scenarios.
• Buy vs. build for connectors? boils down to “buy”
What connectors should you include?

Improved authoring and new controls will continue to build on what

It’s not just about the homepage which should connect key experiences.
Your Intranet design should be about improving how people work today.

HOW WILL YOU MANAGE ACCESS?
Mobility and access outside of the enterprise is a requirement today.
Your Intranet should be responsive by design, but you could also enable better
experiences on mobile devices. Extending team or departmental engagement.

CONTENT OVER TIME…
The modern digital workplace and Intranet has a continually increasing number
of digital spaces or ‘sites’ where content is stored and shared.
HOW SHOULD USERS NAVIGATE?
While mega menus and other innovations were implemented navigation was
always structure based, or managed. With special directory style pages.
Office 365’s SharePoint home is now a more modern site directory experience.
New features like activity roll ups, and quick follow/share options are the start.
HOW SHOULD USERS NAVIGATE?
While structured and managed navigation is still valid in today’s world it is also
important to improve navigation with powerful capabilities like search.
HOW SHOULD USERS NAVIGATE?
By centralizing and governing the creation of ‘spaces’ or sites we can improve
content organization drastically with things like default metadata and templates.
HOW CAN WE BUILD SITES BETTER?

When designing news, leadership or even events pages we can take advantage
of new and improved authoring experiences. Team news can be complimentary.
HOW SHOULD NEWS BE DESIGNED?
HOW SHOULD NEWS BE DESIGNED?
Fast and improved news authoring will build on what is already available.
Microsoft will provide new client side web parts like hero, news, and events.
HOW SHOULD NEWS BE DESIGNED?
Capabilities like bookmarking, notifications, and more help you not only
stay up to date, but follow up when a better time is available.
The model of news being personalized based on region is only the beginning.
Go beyond this and target and share team, departmental and other news.
HOW SHOULD NEWS BE DESIGNED?
As team and departmental news
increases we want to ensure our
digital hub is helping by giving a
broader view of that important
information.
Targeted embedding of Yammer or your enterprise social platform in key parts
of the Intranet, and digital workplace like news and team sites are a good start.
HOW SHOULD SOCIAL BE ENABLED?

Having a great foundation and plan means you can be successful.
Once it’s built we still need people to move in and take ownership.
YOUR NOT DONE YET…
PLANNING FOR ADOPTION…
We need to invest in key areas to enable and accelerate adoption. We can’t do
it alone and need to have the right foundation of structure and support.
GovernancePolicies & Guidance
Even in a mid-size firm, don’t leave the Intranet to just IT.
Create a Cross-Functional Project Team
Within the core team: Varied perspectives Access to broader range of skills Greater buy-in across
departments & practices
+ Project is more enjoyable
Beyond the core team:Wider network of people involved
Contributing content Working on usage + policies Marketing, Communications Launch advocates
→Project is more successful
EVALUATE YOUR POLICY AND
GUIDANCE READINESS…
There are many policies and guidance materials that should exist and be in use
for your Intranet or a modern digital workplace strategy to be effective.
Adoption Campaigns
PLANNING FOR ADOPTION…
We need to invest in key areas to enable and accelerate adoption.
Committing to a clear plan and meaningful activity is important.

The formula for sustaining commitment is still driving interest/awareness +

Often initially comprised of early adoptions. These users may adopt & use new
technology once they are aware of it or have an interest in the technology.
‘Did you know’ tips & pre-launch communication can accelerate this groups
adoption. Use this group to share and influence others.
Users need help understanding how to change. How can
they use the technology? How should they use it? Help,
coaching, how to tips, training, contests & challenges
help this group of users the most. 2Users need to understand the value of
changing. Sharing stories, benefits,
contest winners, & business impact
of the technology will be critical.
PLAN AND EXECUTE CAMPAIGNS…
Developing a roadmap for adoption where we plan activities before launch,
during launch and after launch is important. Plan and execute campaigns!
When each day’s Yammer tip is posted by a member of the tip team it ensures
that these tips come from different users which gets more people involved.
PLANNING FOR ADOPTION…
Tips drive users to take action, should be themed, should be pre-written before
the start of the campaign, and should relate to challenges/contests.

PLANNING FOR ADOPTION…
The goal of each contest is to get the users to take an action (upload a profile picture, download a mobile app, etc.) and those actions should be connected to a tip or tips that had been shared (explaining how to do the action and its value).
