(NEW YORK, NY) Jane
McConnell’s 2009 Global Intranet Stategies Survey is now live (until
the end of August). This is the 4th annual survey; last year 226
organizations participated. The survey has become the reference for
knowing what is happening in intranets. Participants will receive a
complimentary copy of the “Global Intranet Trends for 2010”
which will be published in the second part of October.

    half of the respondent companies that have a steering committee
    (about 1/3 of the respondent companies have a steering committee;
    roughly 1/6th of the total respondents therefore have a senior
    executive actively involved)

  • Only
    45% have networks or communities of practice for content
    contributors

  • Only
    36% of the organizations have “clearly designated business owners
    for content”

  • only
    1% stage 1 intranets have wikis in general use (optimized); 35% are
    testing intranets (n some parts)

  • 10%
    of stage 3 intranets have wikis in general use (optimized); 74% are

Here’s
what other readers of the report have said:

  • “Great
    survey, really got me thinking about the Intranet and portal. Just
    answering the questions felt beneficial – so I really, really cannot
    wait for the report!”

  • “Not
    only this is a moment when we pause and realize what we do, but it’s
    also food for thoughts, research and projects.” from a 3-time
    participant

  • “With
    the help of my colleagues we have completed the survey. We all found
    it very interesting and it has also provided us with some helpful
    self-analysis questions. It will be interesting to see the
    consolidated information.”
