Teamwork & Collaboration
Collaboration and teamwork are fundamental for a cohesive and high-performing workforce. Leveraging simple collaboration-enhancing features, intranets can break down silos, foster teamwork, and promote a culture of collaboration within the organization:
- marketing teams can create searchable, filterable libraries of pre-approved, branded assets (document templates, presentations, etc), color coded by category or use case to improve discoverability;
- employees can rate or like assets, helping content creators discover trends and preferences;
- shared group calendars can simplify scheduling joint calls and foster cross-functional collaboration;
- a searchable employee directory, connected to Azure AD or a custom spreadsheets with data, connects subject matter experts and colleagues with relevant skills, facilitating collaboration across departments and encouraging knowledge-sharing.
In today’s hybrid workplace, integrating intranet solutions with team collaboration platforms like Microsoft Teams further enhances teamwork capabilities, promoting remote collaboration and reducing the need to switch between platforms when accessing frequently used information.
