In times of crisis, is the intranet an afterthought?

Jane McConnell asks the question: in times of crisis, is the intranet an afterthought? To quote:

“Placement/importance of the intranet and its teams within the organisation is by far our biggest pressure point at the moment – in economic crisis, restructures are causing the intranet to be an afterthought more than ever (i.e. ‘oh the intranet, well someone can just keep that up to date, we dont need much headcount for that, theres an economic crisis going on’). The challenges to deliver through the intranet instead of external high-cost mediums means the opposite should be happening in times like this, but it just cannot seem to reach the radars of those at the top.”
