- Grundfos is a global pump manufacturer founded in 1945 with over 17,000 employees worldwide. It currently uses an intranet called Insite built on Lotus Notes.
- A review found Insite is useful but information is difficult to find and the structure needs improvement. Users want better search and personalization.
- Grundfos plans to develop a new digital workplace framework to improve communication, collaboration, and connections between employees globally through an upgraded intranet and enterprise social networking tools. This aims to better support the company's business goals.
What are the future trends in the Digital Workplace? Are we facing even bigger disruption from social, gamification, and the trends that have been prevalent over the last years or are we coming to a point where things are beginning to mature?
In this presentation - from Nordic Intranet Summit, November 2014 - I have looked at some common themes that I see across both the Nordic region and in the Intranet/Digital Workplace community as a whole.
Will there be Hoverboards? Not very likely... While innovations like these are exciting and fun, the real trends are what we see when we look at innovative solutions and innovative vendors.
The question is: Are we making the most of the emergent trends or are we still using the same thinking and logic we did when the Sharepoint 2007 intranet was launched? It's time to challenge ourselves and our peers!

Digital Workplace in the Connected Organization - Enterprise 2.0Jane McConnell
Scorecards and maturity by industry of digital workplaces from 314 organizations worldwide. Early Adopters versus the Majority. Leading trends: customer focus, working out loud, humanizing the enterprise, new organizational design, the future workplace.
The average workday has become disjointed. While workers enjoy the “freedom” that comes from being able to do their jobs without being chained to their desks, it is not without its obstacles. There is certainly no shortage of mobile apps for employees, yet each app only does one thing well, and it is becoming clear that work information is spread out between too many apps. As employees rely more on mobile access, the elusive single-screen, unified mobile experience could be the answer to enterprise information discovery woes. The presentation discusses ways to overcome the information overload challenge using contextual capabilities now provided by mobile devices, a consolidated user experience, and activity streams.

The digital workplace is not a dream destination but a reality. Connecting up your people and technology - on a single, intuitive collaboration platform brings benefits which can be felt right across the entire organisation. But reaching that nirvana isn’t an on-off switch; it’s a journey.
And the next step on our hero’s journey towards that digital workplace is to get walking.
In Part 1, you saw our hero making plans. They stopped thinking of “digital” as an end in itself but as part of the overall vision. The vision of the digital workplace as a dynamic organisation where people, process and technology work together to help organisations join up to face clients, to react to market conditions quickly and to stay a step ahead of the competition. Organisations that have a clear vision (one that starts at the top!) will have a greater chance of success. Our hero had a call to action - a compelling event - to kick start their journey and draw out the map of today and the destination of tomorrow. Then, armed with goals and plans our hero set out to find their allies.
The second in a three-part series
In this episode - Part 2 - our hero starts travelling forward, with a spring in his step and a song in his heart. (Or at least a mandate and budget.)
Travelling at our hero’s side, are guides. Guides can help you navigate the pitfalls - they've been there before. Finally, we conclude with the all important launch - with our hero at mission control making sure that all is successful. All ready for Part 3, where you’ll see how real business value comes not just from technology, but its adoption and the integration into business processes.
Taking your organisation on a successful journey to a digital workplace requires change - are you ready!
Let’s join our hero as he looks around for helpful guides on his digital road.
Planning your Digital Workplace: A Systems-Based Planning ApproachChristian Buckley
When deploying a “Digital Workplace,” where do you begin? What is needed is an iterative, strategic, and systems-based approach of identifying core challenges at the team and company level, working with key stakeholders to identify appropriate strategies, building a solution using a scalable, repeatable, and sustainable change model. This approach drives stakeholder engagement, and ensures a more holistic solution that aligns with the needs of the business at every level. In this presentation, we walk through a systems-based planning approach for Enterprise Collaboration. Topics will include:
--Engaging leaders in a systems analysis, identifying high-priority needs and challenges
--Outlining a set of targeted and strategic actions based on common customer scenarios
--Developing an implementation plan to support successful operational and improvement strategies
The intent of this presentation is to help organizations incorporate systems-based planning into their Digital Workplace planning processes, using real-world customer examples, and to receive tips on how to fold these best practices into their own strategies.

Digital workplace projects rarely fail just because of technology issues.
Efforts to improve intranets, increase adoption of employee collaboration platforms, launch enterprise mobile apps for employees, and other such digital workplace initiatives usually suffer because of issues around strategy, planning, governance and training.
All these causes of failure can be addressed with improved stakeholder engagement. But there are right ways and wrong ways to engage stakeholders.
This presentation draws on the Digital Workplace Group's decade-plus experience helping large global organizations improve their intranets and broader digital workplaces. It lists four of the most common mistakes of stakeholder engagement and the solutions.
Social Business: Frameworks for Next-Gen Organizational Structure | Enterpris...Dion Hinchcliffe
This month in Paris at Enterprise 2.0 SUMMIT I explored what we've learned about social business and how we can use frameworks and heuristics to capture and communicate lessons learned.
This Slideshare presentation is a partial preview of the full business document. To view and download the full document, please go here:
http://flevy.com/browse/business-document/business-case-development-framework-199
The Business Case is an instrumental tool in both justifying a project (requiring a capital budgeting decision), as well as measuring the project's success. The Business Case model typically takes the form of an Excel spreadsheet and quantifies the financial components of the project, projecting key metrics for making any important business decision: Net Present Value (NPV), Return on Investment (ROI), Payback Period, Cost of Investment.
If a project has been justified by the Business Case (both financially and non-financially) and receives the go-ahead from executives, the Business Case model is then continuously maintained and adjusted to track the project?s progress against the initial financial projections and assumptions. This model then becomes a working document used during the project management process.
This toolkit will detail the process of creating a robust Business Case. It also includes a working sample Business Case model (in Microsoft Excel).

It's been six years since I wrote Content Strategy for the Web. Now, in 2015, the content strategy landscape is a much bigger, more complex place. How are companies keeping up with the crazy changes in content trends, technologies, and audience expectations? Here's what I'm seeing and how my own process has evolved.
The SDGs: A framework for social and business valueWayne Dunn
Lecture slides from a seminar on Best Practices in CSR presented by Wayne Dunn and hosted by the Canadian High Commission to Jamaica. Jan 24, 2017 in Kingston, Jamaica
In 2013, Content Marketing Institute released its first Content Marketing Framework. At the time, its purpose was to serve as a high-level view of the principles that govern the world of brand storytelling. Since then, CMI has worked with more than 100 brands, helping them put these core principles into practice. These partnerships have taught us a lot about which parts of the framework worked, which didn’t, and where we still needed to provide greater clarity and transparency. To reflect the insights we gained – as well as the many shifts that have occurred across the entire digital ecosystem – we’ve streamlined our original discussion, and have added a distinct new process model to each node. What follows is our redesigned Content Marketing Framework.
If you want your content marketing to take your business closer to its goals, it helps to have a game plan – a strategic selection of plays you can rely on to help you beat the competition and score points with your target audience. Each year, our Benchmarks, Budgets, and Trends research reveals which tactics marketers are currently using. And while it’s clear that certain platforms and plays are likely to cycle in and out of popularity over time, we’ve noticed an alarmingly consistent trend that seems to impact nearly all of them: Content marketers are experiencing a large gap between using a tactic and getting effective results from it. Our newest Playbook aims to help all content marketers better understand the value proposition of content marketing tactics and achieve greater success with their efforts.

Solving Today's HR, Communication & Leadership Challenges With Microsoft 365 ...Richard Harbridge
Microsoft 365 Intranets are capable of a lot more than just getting key corporate messaging out.
Internal Communications leaders have shifted from editors to enablers. With that shift comes a change from enforcing messaging to empowering and amplifying excellent communications and great ideas throughout the business. From preboarding to offboarding, HR's challenges are harder today than they have ever been before. Naturally, how these leaders leverage the digital workplace has changed as well, especially in how they leverage technology to achieve more with less.
Join our Product Offering Lead, Anders Fagerlund, and the CTO of 2toLead, Richard Harbridge, a Microsoft MVP and internationally recognized expert on Microsoft 365 and the Digital Workplace. This webinar will explore ideas and solutions that HR and Corporate Communications have embraced to improve how, where, and when they engage with employees.
We will discuss:
How to best leverage SharePoint, Microsoft Teams, and Yammer for modern communications.
How to take advantage of AI and Microsoft technology to accelerate and improve key communication and content.
Microsoft Intranet's best practices and approach that can make all the difference.
There will also be a short Q&A session at the end of the webinar.
Target audience
This event is primarily aimed at roles like CIO, CCO, CTO, Digital Workplace or Intranet Managers or similar roles within organizations planning to improve their digital workplace based on Microsoft technology.

Similar to The Digital Workplace at Grundfos From Content to Collaboration (20)
I made this presentation for a team meetup last year and forgot all about. Cleaning up some files I found it again and remembered how I promised my Yammer team colleagues that I would share it in a blogpost.
The inspiration came from a youth golf talent camp where I was the councilor and sitting through the classes, it struck me how much of what the instructor told the young aspiring talents also applied to my daily work around adoption, change management and enterprise social.

Presented at Microsoft Next in Aarhus and Copenhagen in October 2013 by Martin Risgaard Rasmussen
Presentation from Intranett 2012 in Oslo. My intranet story and what I have learned so far after 10 years working with intranets.Why does it matter if you are passionate about what you do and how can your passion fuel situations that seem hard to deal with.
What is the future of intranets and how does the carreer path for intranet managers look? There is a future but the intranet as we know it is changing and the intranet manager will turn into a community manager as everyone in the organisation will be empowered to contribute information.
A winning intranet strategy contains many small steps and a few big jumps. An intranet should never be a project - it's something that supports the business. In order to achieve this, it is important that it develops with the business and not through leaps and bounds.
This has to happen all while keeping a close eye on what's happening on the other side of the firewall since this is what the end users ultimately will request from an internal solution.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

5. Introducing the Grundfos Intranet - Insite
Facts
• Home grown solution based on Lotus Notes
• Separate author and reader environment
• Integration between document management
and intranet
39 local portals
320+ global and local sites
~10 new sites in progress
Insite Organisation
2 people (~1,5 FTE) in IT
100s of editors throughout the company
In-house Notes development team
@Risgaard
7. Where are we today?
• Everybody knows Insite = 94% of the users visits at
least once per week
• The intranet is perceived as useful – although it is
perceived as more useful for the company than for
the individual.
Challenges
• Scalability of Notes solution is good, but the way it
scales is challenging with every new site being a
separate silo.
• Tasks drive usage of the intranet, but information
(and how to complete tasks) is hard to find.
50,87%
19,13%
13,70%
5,12%
What is on the 300 most popular
pages on Insite?
News
Tasks (minus
find ppl)
Shortcuts to
somewhere else
Canteen Menu
@Risgaard
8. What does our users say?
INSITE must be like GOOGLE. Easy to use, easy to find what you
are looking fore.
Everyone must be abel to use our INSITE. Old and young :-))
We employees need to participate more, we
can not let all the work in your hands since
there is now way you can find out what is
happening in all Grundfos companies around
the world. It is not fair to say how satisfied I
am with this section if I don't participate.
With a growing number of employees, many promotions,
and multiple acquisitions, keeping up to date on people's
roles and responsibilities is a huge challenge. Insite is the
perfect place to keep an up-to-date organizational chart of
our company.
We have stopped using Insite since it is
loaded with information that is impossible
to locate. Implement a real search function
or skip the idea of Insite.
My impression is, that good and relevant information
is available on Insite. The challenge is to find it. A good
search function would be great and add to the use and
functionality of the sites.
The overall structure needs a redefinition with better menues. It looks like
that has not been a "growing strategy" for it and all areas have their own
structure
I'm sorry, but my job is to run the machines. I only have
computer access in case of an E-MAIL
@Risgaard
10. The intranet as a project…
*Does not include any customisation or compatibility with your current solutions and we are not in any way liable for any
inconveniences that an upgrade may cause. Training? HA! You wish… but it sure is a really pretty box, innit?
PS. Send more money…
@Risgaard
11. Vision vs. development
”The intranet will be THE ONE PLACE to access tools in
our digital workplace to increase efficiency and to
continuously support our business goals”
Is this what continuous support looks like??
@Risgaard
12. Minding the gap…
Downside to the sustained development model
• Limited internal ressources compared to big platform
vendors like eg. Microsoft or IBM
• Internal politics and culture may impeed momentum
• Mounting pressure from consumerisation and user’s
expectation
The result is a widening gap between the outside online
world and the company intranet which must be closed.
The importance of Change Management
• Sustained model requires little change mgmt and
training = it has become an uncommon task.
Change management begins the minute you start
planning how to close the gap.

Business themes
1. Connection - Rich profile that will enable people to connect, share, and make competencies
visible.
2. Communication - A setup and tool that enable wider, more granular distribution for eg.
news and feedback – including distribution to mobile devices – also outside the Grundfos
firewall, eg. for blue collars with little or no access to computers.
3. Collaboration – Integration of other collaboration solutions used in Grundfos making it
easier to work together on projects and initiatives not depending on location and working
hours.
4. Transactions – Easy, personalized access to common daily tasks to increase efficiency.
Foundation themes
5. Search – all content must be easily searchable.
6. Personalisation – Content will be presented based on the user’s profile and he/she will be
given a high degree of flexibility to tailor content to meet individual needs.
@Risgaard
18. Our Intranet Vision
“The Grundfos Intranet will be the global culture
bearing platform where Grundfos employees
communicate, connect, and collaborate to get their

20. Global Working Culture in Grundfos
The Global Working Culture initiative is born
out of Carstens Bjergs intent of creating a
global organisation where everyone works
and collaborates as effectively as if all were
‘sitting under the same roof’.
-Global Working Culture charter, 2011
*Check out Simon Sinek on TED – ”Start With Why” http://www.ted.com/talks/view/lang/en//id/848
There’s also a book, but just stick to the TED talk if you don’t want to end up asking yourself WHY you bought the book…
