Creating a dedicated CEO web page

Sunday, July 24, 2005

Q: "I'm interested in creating a dedicated CEO page on our intranet? Does anyone have any tips for success?"

The following response came from Wayne Clarke of Celerant Consulting Ltd:

"Our CEO has a dedicated homepage where he has the ability to make his personal interests explicit to the rest of the business. In fact our CEO and the executive management team all have the ability to share their personal experiences (i.e., anything from the type of dogs they like, to recent holiday and family pictures). They all have the ability to update their homepages through an "idiot-proof" web authoring tool which allows them to add text and images; so it is completely self managed.

These personal pages give a great insight into our leadership especially from the perspective of new joiners who have the ability to get some real background information on the leadership team and CEO. In addition to these 'personal pages' we have a CEO page on the intranet which is managed and co-written by internal communication which includes high-level information on the organization from the perspective of the CEO with links to recent strategy updates or anything you would expect from the CEO's office.

The enabling technology for this is Microsoft Sharepoint Portal Server; essentially its a portal product which allows each individual throughout the business to have their own homepage which also acts as blog if they so wish."
