12:30 pm - 1:30 pm | Workshop B: Connecting With > Connecting To | Comms Tools To Drive High-Touch Employee ConnectionsJason Anthoine, Managing Founder | Audacity Over the last 24 months, all the companies released all the tools so they could stay connected to their employees. Zoom, Teams, Slack, intranets, apps, texts, microsites, macrosites and just about everything else you can think were deployed so they could reach their folks when they wanted to. As a result, two things happened. Newly remote employees started feeling like “ok, ok, enough is enough already.” And deskless employees, who simply can’t work remotely, still felt like “what about us?”

1:45 pm - 2:45 pm | Workshop C: Re-Building Workforce Relationships Through GamificationBlair Bloomston, CEO | Game On Nation This highly interactive workshop explores how gamification can help spark authentic connection and re-build relationships for workforces that have transitioned to hybrid or all-remote interaction. For more than 24 years, Game On Nation has mastered the art of applying game-based motivational factors to non-game initiatives like workplace culture, helping executives and teams achieve high-performance. With employee interaction and the way teams connecting shifting rapidly, the power of connecting people back to your brand, mission, and one another is game-changing. You’ll experience the positive influence of four game dynamics: Mystery, Incentive, Laughter, and Empowerment, and walk-away with tangible techniques and good-to-do action steps to bring these connection points to life within your organization. | |||
