Transforming your intranet into an essential business tool

Strengthening internal communications and knowledge sharing in your business

Date: 08 May 2008 - 09 May 2008

Location: Amsterdam, The Netherlands

Developing an intranet that increases performance and productivity, supports staff on a daily basis and boosts your internal communication across the whole organisation is fast becoming a key business strategy. However, many organisations find themselves running an intranet that, after years of uncontrolled growth, could do more for the business and are unclear as to how the intranet can reach its full potential or are unaware of the challenges they may face if they embark upon a process of change. As an efficient and usable site, an intranet can draw in high user numbers which can lead to knowledge sharing within your organisation, but how can you achieve this successfully?

The problems are numerous so finding the best solution to develop your organisation’s intranet can seem an overwhelming task. Developed from our successful UK Intranet portfolio and together with the help of intranet managers across Europe, Ark Group have developed the Transforming your intranet into an essential business tool conference designed specifically for European intranet managers to help you. Learn from leading organisations and hear how:

• E.ON harnessed Web 2.0 technologies on their intranet

• Nestec SA gained quality content through their governance standards

• Wolf Theiss promoted their intranet and unified the organisation

• WWF International developed a high-value intranet while facing organisational challenges

Alongside these case studies, find out how to exploit your existing intranet, introduce valuable tools, maximise productivity and explain the positive impact of an essential intranet to your senior management.

You will also have the chance to see other intranets in action! Fluor will discuss how to exploit the intranet as a knowledge-sharing tool and World Health Organization will demonstrate ways to create an effective strategy for organising and migrating information. Both will be presenting a live online demonstration of their intranet. You will get a chance to learn how their intranets have become such an essential business tool for their organisations and quiz them on how they have achieved a “must-have” intranet!

Join us at this two-day conference and discover how to facilitate, not lead, successful knowledge sharing and encourage effective internal communication within your business.
