Evolution of Intranets: How Soundbite is Creating a Customer-Centric Shift
The corporate intranet, in its traditional form, has been a cornerstone of internal communication within organizations. However, as businesses evolve and adapt to a rapidly shifting landscape, the limitations of traditional intranets are becoming increasingly apparent. The problem? Often, the business functions present on these platforms fail to treat their internal users as customers.
Why a Customer-Centric Approach Matters
What happens when you view your internal users through a 'customer lens'? You begin to understand their needs, desires, and pain points, allowing you to tailor your approach to their specific requirements. The process involves segmenting 'customers' into audiences, understanding what each audience wants from their intranet, and prioritizing the structure and content to service those needs.
This perspective shift towards treating internal users as customers can significantly improve communication, collaboration, and productivity within your organization.
The Challenges of Traditional Intranets
Despite the clear benefits of a customer-centric approach, implementing it within the constraints of traditional intranet systems poses significant challenges. These platforms often lack the flexibility and user-centric design necessary to cater to audience needs effectively.
Furthermore, the people responsible for managing these platforms may not have the necessary skills, time, or mindset to approach the task from a customer-centric perspective. These issues result in a disconnect and inefficiencies, leading to a less-than-optimal experience for the internal users.
