1. What is a company's Who's who?

Before getting to the heart of the matter, let's briefly recall what a Who's who is, and what its purpose is.

1.1 Who's who: definition

A corporate Who's who is a visual support that gathers  photos of all an organization's stakeholders.

More than just a collection of faces, a modern Who's who also serves as a company directory and organization chart.

Integrated into the company's intranet , it provides access to employees' professional contact information and allows each person to be placed in the company's hierarchy.

1.2 What is a modern company's Who's who made of?

Typically, a Corporate Who's Who 2.0 consists of the following elements:

• The information sheets on the employees with their photograph and various data such as their contact details, their skills, their projects or their past experiences.
• An organization chart showing the hierarchical structure of the company.
• A search bar designed to navigate through the Who's who.
• An "edit" option to update user pages.

1.3. What is the purpose of a company's Who's who?

Despite its basic appearance, the Who's who is an essential tool for companies.

This tool has many benefits for employees as it allows them to :

• Consult their colleagues profiles in order to know their contact information, function, skills, expertise, responsibilities, past projects and their interests;
• Contact a teammate via email in an instant, simply by clicking on the appropriate link ;
• Find the business expert or in-house skills they need at a glance with the integrated search engine;
• Visualize the company's structure  and easily understand the roles and responsibilities of each person in the form of an organization chart;
• Introduce yourself to the group in a meaningful way, simply by editing your profile and providing the information you want (career path, achievements, skills, interests, etc.).

As we can see, the company's Who's who has significant benefits for employees and, by extension, for the entire organization.

Ultimately, thanks to this tool, stakeholders integrate more easily, feel more recognized by the group, access knowledge more quickly and collaborate more easily with their colleagues.

The result is better talent retention, increased collective intelligence and, quite simply, greater team productivity.

But be careful, not all Who's whos are the same...
