The challenges
Stella and her HR team had a fairly enormous challenge. It was not just one of productivity, in that people needed to be able to work together, but also one of connection. A whole bunch of siloed workers does not make a good company, which is especially important to tackle when the company is in the business of remote work.
- Working with so many remote employees, Stella needed a way to check on team well-being during monthly 'connection sessions'.
- Stella needed to ensure all staff were fully compliant with the company's policies.
- Staff needed a place to put forward and analyse each other's ideas. This was made so much harder by the fact that meetings are virtual.
The results
It quickly turned out that just a couple of presentations with AhaSlides a month was enough to help foster connection between staff who barely ever talked with each other.
Stella found that the learning curve for her participants was non-existent; they got to grips with AhaSlides quickly and found it a fun, useful addition to their meetings pretty much instantly.
- Stella's bi-monthly connection sessions helped remote workers to feel a sense of bonding with their colleagues.
- Quizzes made compliance training a lot more fun than it was previously. Players learnt what they needed then put their learnings to a trivia test.
- Stella could find out how her staff perceived a certain concept before she talked about it. It helped her connect better with her participants.
