Explain what makes a good employee portal for a large global company
and the best way to explain to an employee within the company what it
is, how it works, and why they need it. Additionally, and one of the
most important aspects of this question is; how to use the help
function within an employee portal to effectively support users during
their portal experience. Listed below is additional information
around the question. I need to know the above, as well as a concise
one or two page explanation of this for the user, as well as
definitions for each part of the portal.
