How do you get to know people at work?
How do you improve communication between departments?
Coffee is a great place to start, but you can't just email Richard Branson saying:
"Hey, I'm a new intern - fancy coffee?"
So to take the weirdness out of it, many companies organise randomised coffees. This normally starts by HR matching employees in Excel and sending out a weekly email.
That's exactly how we started, an email-first startup (hat tip @rrhoover) that gradually evolved into an employee engagement tool used by Fortune 500 companies.
Since our launch on PH last year we've added:
- User profiles
- Bulk user import
- Multiple timezone support
- Scheduling assistant
- Conversation starters
- Customize weekly email with company branding and message
- Optional manager debrief (thanks @jason for suggestion)
Here to answer any questions.
@morganric - nice idea...so more of an external networking tool (as opposed to internal networking).
It might be something we'll add in the future.
Thanks for the suggestion.
They've added user profiles, conversation starters, a scheduling assistant, manager accounts, bulk user import and multi-timezone support for global/remote companies.
