Are you an early adopter who thrives on discovering and utilizing new technology? Are you constantly seeking ways to improve processes, internal communications, and employee recognition at work?

If so, you'll be thrilled to discover what Workmates, an innovative internal communication platform, can do for your organization. As we define internal communications, it's essential to understand how the right tools can transform your workplace.

Culture Applies To EveryoneCulture Applies To Everyone

No matter if you're an intern at a large corporation with thousands of employees, the founder of a growing company, or someone who just joined a startup as the 9th employee, anyone at any organization has the potential to be that early-adopting influencer who popularizes new tech. We designed Workmates to be a universally useful internal communication software for companies of all sizes, aiming to improve internal communication, boost employee engagement, and reward hard-working team members. This approach aligns with the latest internal communication trends, focusing on creating a cohesive corporate culture through effective communication channels.

Appreciation Is The Real Driver

A recent article in Entrepreneur Magazine cited a study by the Boston Consulting Group that asked 200,000 employees worldwide, "What do you value most in the workplace?" Do you know what the #1 most valued aspect was? Surprisingly, it wasn't a higher base salary (that ranked #8). It was an appreciation for their work. This finding underscores the importance of effective internal communications and employee recognition in shaping a positive employee experience.

Not only do people want appreciation, but they also want to be able to appreciate others. This concept is further detailed in the book Tribal Leadership by Dave Logan, John King, and Dr. Halee Fischer-Wright, highlighting the significance of peer-to-peer recognition in fostering a strong company culture. This aligns perfectly with modern internal communications ideas that emphasize employee advocacy and well-being.

Workmates Work For Everyone

Every company culture is unique and constantly adapting as the organization changes and grows. With Workmates, you have a living, breathing culture that is digitized and can be disseminated across the entire company at any time.

This internal communications platform enables a culture of appreciation through features like “Kudos” - one of 12 ways to recognize someone at your company. As part of your internal communications team's toolkit, Workmates can help achieve key internal communication goals and improve overall workforce communications.

Kudos is one of the fundamental reasons to implement Workmates, as it allows for rewarding achievers who go above and beyond for the company and/or make life easier for their coworkers - both essential components of a strong culture. Historically, showing appreciation took great effort, but Workmates powers micro-rewards with the push of a button, making appreciation easy and instantaneous. This approach aligns with the latest employee communication trends, focusing on real-time recognition and feedback.
