Ragan's Intranet Awards winners

Intranets are a tricky communications tool. What elements make your intranet useful for employees? How do you encourage employees to use it? How do you prove that it’s a tool worth spending money on? The winners of Ragan’s 2018 Intranet Awards tackled these issues and more. Their intranets proved to be essential to their overall communications strategy. Click on each winner’s name to learn more about the best work we received, and congratulate them on Twitter using the hashtag #RaganAwards.
