GoBlue Intranet Launch

Overview

An enterprise intranet redesign that transformed a fragmented experience into a connected employee ecosystem supporting clarity, engagement, and alignment at scale.

Challenge

How do you modernize a complex intranet while changing how employees access information, engage with leadership, and experience communication across the organization? And how do you do it by only saving money- not spending it?

Approach

The work treated the intranet as infrastructure, not a website. UX, visual identity, and communications were aligned to support real employee workflows, plain language, and long-term sustainability.

Execution & Impact

  • Rebuilt site architecture with intuitive navigation optimized for employee experience with data-driven insight

  • Produced onboarding and how-to videos to support adoption

  • Launched a phased communications plan with leadership messaging

  • Implemented governance, editorial guidelines, and ownership models

  • $160K in annual savings through platform consolidation

  • 40%+ increase in engagement at launch

  • 600% increase in manager engagement within the first month

  • Adoption of Viva Engage as the organization’s social layer

  • Measurable improvements in usability and employee experience

Role

Strategic Communications and Creative Lead

  • Set the narrative and experience strategy for the enterprise intranet launch, aligning executive intent, employee needs, and organizational priorities

  • Partnered with communications, digital, and leadership teams to translate complex strategy into a coherent, usable platform

  • Provided creative direction and editorial governance to ensure clarity, consistency, and long-term scalability

This is so much easier to find things. No one likes change, but the changes made were thoughtful and intentional. It’s a great design .
