Examples of People Pages/Employee profiles to share #profiles

Hello,

We are looking to see what others are doing in terms of the creation of People Pages/Employee profiles and the content. Does anyone have a template or examples of a page you have created at your company that works well that you would like to share? Thanks very much.

We use SharePoint 2010 and have made a couple of minor changes to the out of the box features

Schools becomes Education

added a field for former employment

adding the ability for staff to include their social info such as Twitter handle, Facebook or LinkedIn link etc. – this is to align with a separate project that will provide staff with social business tools for discussions, communities etc.

Most collaboration and ECM systems offer tolerable out of the box profile templates. Having recently been involved in a project around this, I would note the following:
- Work with users to design profile pages rather than just dumping a template on them.
- One issue is the profusion of profile pages across multiple systems. Ideally you want a single place where profile information in managed by the user, that may then be visible in different ways in different applications. Master data mgt innit.
- Some of the fields will depend on the nature of the businss that you are in. i.e. In a project-based organisation, listing people's previous projects is key. In a sector where credentialling is important (e.g. medicine) you'd want to focus on qualifications.
- Spend some time thinking about how the data in the profile gets into the profile. The more data that has to be manually added by the user, the less likely it is to get done.
- The current trend is to work towards automatically adding relevant information from other systems into profiles. This removes  the issues around the manual addition of data but requires an investment in systems integration.
- Think about different levels of profile access for different user groups. As a user, I may want to share a small number of things about myself with everyone but a greater number of things with a smaller number of people.

We started using SharePoint 2010 MySite functionality beginning in October 2011. Currently it is almost completely "out of the box", but we are looking at adding fields to support syncing some content from our HR systems.  Also under consideration is a way to include a list of "MyProjects" (both current and past) on each profile page. 

I am also interested in utilizing LinkedIn plugins , but fear I might be losing that battle.
