The best effort/impact ratio you can find to increase employee engagement and recognition is to automate birthday and anniversary celebrations. It is cross cultural, cross-religious, cross-generation, cross-timezone etc. And it makes people genuinely happy to receive some positive vibes during this special day.
Water Cooler Trivia makes the work week more fun with weekly trivia contests that the whole office can participate in. The conversations sparked by trivia bring people together.
Trivia contests and results can be sent via email or Slack. Results include not just the winner, but the funniest answers too! Groups can customize the categories and difficulty for your office. We've seen categories like Coffee, Finance, Boston, or True Crime.
More than 50% of participants have gotten to know a coworker through the weekly trivia contests. Groups can also track the leaderboard over time, including "category champs" in Pop Culture, Science, and more.
