For several years, the work environment has been changing at the pace of new technologies. If telework was already gradually settling into the decor of the company, the health crisis has greatly democratized it. Now, many companies have adopted this mode of operation in their work habits.
If it has many advantages, it imposes however a difficulty: to maintain its corporate culture. Indeed, it is complex to maintain the link between its collaborators when each of them is behind a screen. Fortunately, there are many tools to promote exchanges and develop relationships within your company, such as Recess.
Thanks to AI, this tool allows you to create neat social media posts
Create a link between your collaborators
Difficult to find a good alternative to discussions at the coffee machine or the lunch break when you are at a distance. To overcome this problem, some companies have adopted Recess. It’s a free tool that integrates with Slack and Workplace from Meta. It gives the possibility of making several games remotely. For example, teams can play “Would you rather…”. It consists of choosing between two elements. Anyone can play it in real time from the Recess site.
Every day, Recess asks questions to the teams so that they discover the personality and the life of each one. This could be something like, “Share a photo you love from last year. Why was this moment special for you? “. On the Recess site, accessible by all employees, everyone can see the answers of the others. In the same way as on Facebook, it is possible to like and comment on their messages.
The objective is to enable employees to get to know each other and find common ground. In this way, we obtain the same results as during team building activities: employees feel more confident with the individuals with whom they work on projects. Maintaining this cohesion also helps to improve the company’s performance over the long term. Finally, the tool is also suitable for newly formed teams or teams made up of new members.
