Patrick Walsh
Patrick has spent most of his working life in the automotive components sector. He was responsible for ensuring that the quality, environmental and health and safety management systems were integrated and placed online. Eventually, Patrick became more interested in structuring the online content than in the rest of his day job and this lead to him taking up an opportunity to raise an intranet from scratch for a large local government department. This was the experience from which the "Lean Intranet" concept was born. Patrick now works at the BBC as an Information Architect and his main project remains working as part of a team improving BBC intranets.

He describes what a true 2.0 intranet must include and points to the future of successful intranets as truly integrated Enterprise Information Systems.
