When employees are given an opportunity to meet, network and collaborate with their peers, the result is more productivity, higher job satisfaction and overall business success. With the shift to a dispersed workforce, collaboration has become more difficult. Communicators can help to create the new watercooler effect, empowering employees to connect both in person and virtually. In this session, we’ll uncover:

  • How to craft collaborative meetings, corporate gatherings and town halls that appeal to all and ways to communicate about these events before, during and after in a way that drives ongoing engagement and participation.
  • The formats and models that work best for hybrid, remote and flex workforces.
  • How a mix of on-demand content (videos, podcasts, and articles) and live speaker events can drive employee engagement.
  • Cracking the code: Town halls that achieves strategic goals while also beating Zoom fatigue.
