What's next for those of our members who have already achieved this ? Cheers, Dear Jane & James
Thank you for contributing to the discussion.

@james “Phase 6: Intranets as a business tool” on your intranet evolution scale – There are different phases of this. What’s next for those of our members who have already achieved this ?

Cheers,

While most intranets are still in only stages 1 or 2, we do need to plan future directions for intranets that have achieved level 3... PS. in terms of stages of maturity, we've also defined the "six phases of intranet evolution", which broadly match up with Jane's stages: http://www.slideshare.net/jamesr/the-six-phases-of-intranet-evolution-includes-audio “What’s next” is always a good topic of discussion for intranets!

James Robertson was there too. The Razorfish model is primarily based on technology, not usages. It is one way of looking at intranets and is primarily shaped by US organizations' experiences. European organizations' intranets have evolved quite differently. I blogged about our conversations in 2006: http://netjmc.typepad.com/globally_local/2006/08/report_on_best_.html and again here http://netjmc.typepad.com/globally_local/2006/03/essential_3_dim.html You can read Shiv's comment on the second post. For me, Stages are only partially about technology, but primarily about strategy, implementation, adoption, governance, etc. I'd love to discuss your 4th Stage in more detail one day. I would place the points you list as still Stage 3 intranets. Stage 4 is something quite different . This will make for a great conversation...maybe in Aarhus on a panel? Greetings from hot Provence, and have a good summer! Jane Hi Janus,
