Learn from other intranets
Steptwo has extensively described the winning intranets and digital workspaces in the 2018 Intranet and Digital Workplace Showcase . In 290 pages you will find a well-described business case for each winner and multiple screenshots with explanations. This makes the report particularly valuable, because nowhere else will you find so many 'peeks into the intranet kitchen'.
You can also find most winners on the Steptwo website with a short description and a screenshot. With a filter you can search by country, category and year. For example all winners of 2018 . In that 'Award browser' you can also find previous Dutch winners such as Accolade , Philips and Heineken .
This year again, no Dutch-speaking organizations won any prizes, while the Netherlands was well represented on the podium in previous years. I therefore call on every intranet or DWO team in the Netherlands and Belgium to register for the Awards for next year. Show the world what we can all do!
It is a fun way to put your team in the spotlight and a nice side effect is that you learn how to promote the value of your DWO or intranet to the jury and therefore also to your own management.
Winning the Intranet Innovation award in the belgium telegram data Intranet Rework category gave our team a great sense of achievement. After months of hard work, we felt we had made great progress in our latest iteration of the firm intranet but to have it substantiated by Step Two's panel of judges was incredibly gratifying. Since winning the award, our group has received praise and recognition from firm leadership and peers. – Jennifer Mendez (KM Firm Solutions Manager, Ogletree Deakins, Nash, Smoak & Stewart).
