Filed under: Conferences & presentations, Intranets
We like to mix it up at our conferences, to keep everyone awake and engaged. At Intranets2013, held in Sydney in May 2013, this included an intranet mythbuster session at the end of day one.
Four of our presenters were brave enough to don white lab coats, to bust the myths that you voted on.
With five minutes each, they busted the following myths:
- Jonathan Phillips (Coca-Cola Enterprises, UK):
Social collaboration replaces traditional intranets - Sam Marshall (Clearbox Consulting, UK):
Everything must be 3 clicks or less from the home page - Michal Pisarek (Dynamic Owl, Canada):
Intranets don’t need navigation, only search - James Robertson (Step Two Designs, Australia):
Scrolling pages are evil
The session rocked! Every presentation provided a great mix of entertainment and information, and thankfully we were able to record the sessions.
So for your viewing pleasure, here are the four myths being busted:
Jonathan Phillips (Coca-Cola Enterprises, UK):
Social collaboration replaces traditional intranets
Sam Marshall (Clearbox Consulting, UK):
Everything must be 3 clicks or less from the home page
Michal Pisarek (Dynamic Owl, Canada):
Intranets don’t need navigation, only search
James Robertson (Step Two Designs, Australia):
Scrolling pages are evil
And the winner was…
… Michal Pisarek, as voted by the audience using their phones and web browsers. Well done to Michal! :-)
