You sit down with your coffee, ready to tackle an important task, when suddenly – bam! – a flood of notifications from various apps bombards you. Need to find a document urgently?

This is part nine of our “Why intranets fail” series. Read parts one, two, three, four, five, six, seven and eight. Many organizations face a discouraging trend in intranet adoption: After the launch excitement fades, employees drift back to old habits.
