Dear Colleagues,

Great organizations pride themselves in engaged, well connected and motivated employees. Not only are face-to-face communications vital, but so are the virtual ones. More than ever, in today’s global market, intranets must serve as a way to connect employees from down the hall to across the world. How can this be done effectively, though, when competing with our Web 2.0 world?

The competition for your employees’ attention is at an all-time high, generating a need for you to be more creative with how to reach them, how to engage them at work and stay motivated and productive. Stale, stagnant intranets aren’t the answer anymore.

Start your New Year with an Intranet 2.0 conference that will launch your intranet to new heights in 2012. Hear from several organizations on how they are successfully integrating social media into their intranets and revitalizing their communications with their employees, including how:

• Southwest Airlines learned from their launch of two-way communication, with the introduction of an employee blog and featured video content
• Washington State Office of the Attorney General is keeping employees engaged, connected and informed through their intranet’s tools, including blogs, videos, and anonymous suggestion boxes
• SAS creatively uses new technologies like a social networking platform (Socialcast – internally known as the Hub) that invites individual feedback, supports group interests, and reveals answers in real-time

Attend “Intranet 2.0: How To Integrate The Latest Social Media Tools And Technologies (Including SharePoint) To Foster Collaboration, Increase Engagement, And Drive Results,” January 30-February 2, 2012, and team up with your peers on how to take your intranet to the next level.

Register today by calling the conference hotline at 888-362-7400, or register online to hear from proven internal communicators and leaders in our field who are incorporating social media and the latest technologies into their intranets to engage employees and drive results.

I look forward to meeting you in the New Year!

Best regards,
