MyZenTeam

Hello Product Hunters! I am Monika, Product Manager at MyZenTeam. 🖐️ Our team has been working remotely for the last 8 years. With over 180 people working from 40+ countries in 14 different time zones, we needed a simple solution that made sure we were all on the same page. MyZenTeam profiles are a tool that we created to engage and collaborate asynchronously. 🌎 Do you know how your manager or colleagues prefer to work or communicate? That’s why we introduced the concept of employee profiles internally and now we are sharing it with you. It’s our manual for understanding how other team members prefer to collaborate and interact with their colleagues. It includes: 💬 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐨 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐌𝐞 - An internal cheatsheet for knowing how teammates prefer to work and communicate. Here we express our preferences for: • Chat or call? • Small talk or straight to the point? • How we like to get feedback • Our strengths and blind spots 🧠 𝗗𝗶𝗦𝗖 - Different outlooks and points of view create the most successful teams. We remain mindful of our team's DiSC profiles to make sure all perspectives are adequately represented. 👩‍🎨 𝝞𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘀 - Colleagues are humans! This is a space for us to find a fellow hiking fan or be inspired to pick up a new hobby. 🎥 𝗣𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗮 𝗞𝘂𝗰𝗵𝗮 - A presentation method that tells a story through 20 images. Colleagues must include a link to the presentation in their employee profile, and they must limit each slide to 20 seconds. 💪 𝝖𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 - We recognise the hard work of our employees beyond their job titles in their profiles. We celebrate the great accomplishments they have achieved and ensure that they are visible to everyone. MyZenTeam profiles can be made public so that you can tailor them and make these profiles accessible to everyone! As a hiring manager, you can use these profiles in your job postings so your applicants can become more informed of your work ethic and style. Additionally, you can add the link to your profile, and to your email signature to spice up your online networking! 📨 With MyZenTeam profiles, you can build a strong and engaged remote team. Ready to give it a try? 🚀 It’s our first launch and we are super excited to learn from this amazing community! How do you avoid miscommunication in your team? We are super curious to hear all your tips! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on our product!

Congrats on your launch! Amazing to see how MyZenTeam grew from a concept to a mind-blowing (more like mind-soothing?) tool. 🤩 One note though, it would be nice to have control over which of the profile fields would be visible to people outside the organization if the profile was made public.

Hey everyone, I'm Ilma, founder of MyZenTeam. With 8 years of experience managing a remote and distributed team spanning 40 countries and 14 time zones, I've discovered effective ways of connecting team members online, which inspired me to build MyZenTeam. Our platform incorporates advanced technology and behavioral science solutions to achieve people-powered success in the workplace and beyond. Exciting news, MyZenTeam profiles are now public! You can tailor and share these profiles to give applicants insight into your work ethic and style. As a hiring manager, this is a great way to build a strong and engaged remote team. Plus, you can add your profile link to your email signature for added online networking. What’s next? Custom domains for your profiles are coming soon. We are waiting for Slack to approve MyZenTeam engagement bots. These bots will automatically remind you about ‌ birthdays, give kudos, and share your favorite moment of the week. Discover more about your team members by answering impromptu questions. Next week we will release check-ins that will help managers to feel the pulse of the team and show that they’ve been heard. We'd love to hear all your tips and feedback on our product. Thanks for checking us out!
