Presented at IntraTeam Event 2013 - Copenhagen - March 7, 2013 Power has been an underdeveloped concept in the rhetoric surrounding the use of many-to-many intranets. Expressions like "liberation" and "enhanced collaboration" and "freedom" are common in marketing, but is this really the case? How does power really work on the social intranet? Who is in control? What are the opportunities of this new model? What are the risks? Does the social intranet make employees more or less powerful? Using ideas developed by communications philosopher Manuel Castells, Gordon introduces how leaders and managers can understand network power inside of their organizations, and identify both opportunities and risks
