Content Formula was re-engaged to support the implementation of a new LiveTiles (formerly known as Wizdom) intranet.Ĭontent Formula worked in partnership with an engaged project team, helping with various aspects of the implementation, including working with other third parties in the design phase, advising on technical aspects, training site owners, running a stakeholders workshop and even offering content and editorial support. When Content Formula carried out user research to help support Legal & General’s digital workplace journey, one of the recommendations was to launch a new intranet. It’s outdated and inconsistent interfaces were sometimes confusing, and content was not always up to date.Įmployees wanted a single place to go to be able to access the wider digital workplace, not only the new 365 tools but also non-Microsoft systems like SuccessFactors. With the enhanced opportunities to communicate and collaborate through the roll-out of Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Teams, the old Legal & General intranet felt increasingly out of step with the new digital workplace. With a strong heritage and brand, the company has a complex structure and a diverse workforce. Legal & General is a multinational financial services company offering insurance, asset management and other services. You can unsubscribe at any time (link is on each email).

Go to Settings | Accounts | Email & Accounts (in the latest Windows 10) and choose ‘Add an account’. You need to setup Windows to use the same account that you have setup in Outlook. It works if your email/calendar/contacts are stored ‘in the cloud’ using a service like, Office 365 hosting, Exchange Server or Gmail (among others). There’s a way to make ‘Outlook’ Live Tiles. After all, Windows and Outlook are made by the same company and Outlook is Microsoft’s main program for email etc.īut no … there are no Outlook Live Tiles and there’s no sign there ever will be. You’d think that the calendar/email/contacts live tiles would link to Microsoft Outlook.

On the Windows 8 and 10 large Start Menu are ‘Live Tiles’ which are updated to show the latest information. Adding email, calendar and contacts Live Tiles to the Windows Start Menu would seem like an obvious thing to do.
