“We’re not shying away from the challenges that come with this kind of information channel. Happeo’s company news stream will provide a genuinely interactive forum where our employees can respond honestly to company-wide initiatives and news, share their thoughts, and connect with colleagues from across the business.”
“Happeo’s collaborative suite will support synergies across the company, help people work together, and help us bring global teams together.”
“The merger of two colleges created the Inspire Education Group; a process that has revealed many new opportunities. We can now use new and more efficient methods of communication. One of the key opportunities is to use new and more efficient methods of communication. Happeo is a key technology for us that enables our senior leadership team to communicate across the entire group simply and quickly. Not only that it enables teams across colleges to interact and collaborate in a way that previously would not have been possible.”
“We have a singular and exciting brand. We have orthodontics, general dentistry, oral surgery. We also have our own dental assistant training school. We’re in growth mode and we're always looking for growth opportunities. We have a really high-quality product. Our brand is all about the experience, because most people don’t particularly enjoy going to the dentist. But we’ve changed that by making it a comfortable experience. We have the friendliest staff, massage chairs, you can watch Netflix while getting treatments — it’s a place where you're not afraid to go."
“Kairoi means moments in time when opportunities are seized. What this means is we're looking for opportunities for our clients, for our associates and for our residents to improve their lives. When we found Happeo, we saw it as a powerful tool that would parallel our philosophy of people first, and meet our goal to empower our associates. With Happeo our team drives success for our organization.”
“Happeo has been a central hub for all of our job postings and descriptions. It's also been a place of recognition for promotions and advancement so that our associates can see there’s growth within the company, as well as invite other people that they think are very talented into the Kairoi fold. The ability to post pictures, the thumbs up and interactions on comments — all of those things allow people to have that personal touch, bring a little bit of humor to it so that it's an enjoyable environment. And that’s played a big part in our growth.”
“To have that dashboard of analytics that we can broadcast to our partners so they see we have this much engagement, what people are searching for, what people are doing, what their favorite page is — those metrics are invaluable. To take the information from analytics to show individuals how Kairoi is benefiting from using this platform is really powerful.”
“Our company has two sides: a teacher-side and a staff-side, and our old internal website was mostly for teachers. And staff were getting a lot of emails, both internal emails and those from clients and parents. We needed an internal platform that both reduced emails and brought our entire company together. With Happeo, important information can be shared via Announcements, and that significantly reduced the number of internal emails.”
“We wanted to make our communications more dynamic, because we found emails and newsletters limiting. They left information siloed into people’s inboxes. Happeo solves that.”
“Because our Google Sites were not good enough in terms of structure and user friendliness, we ended up creating too many Sites – and with that, information silos. As an alternative, we developed this tribal-knowledge system. It was just faster and easier to ask a colleague for help! The pandemic removed our ability to interact physically with one another, and instead we sought refuge in Slack. Unfortunately, the fleeting nature of messages in Slack means people were left out. Happeo’s content is ‘sticky’, which makes our culture more visible – crucial to creating alignment and a sense of connection.”
“Before Happeo, we used Slack as our primary means of communicating announcements and information throughout the company, which isn't ideal because Slack doesn't have the best search functionality. And people that are not located in the same time zones, or are taking time off, will miss those important announcements. Happeo’s helped us save that information somewhere that's very easy to search and find.”
“We use Slack to connect on a basic level, and dig deeper with Happeo. That's just the different in content lifespan – Slack is for short-form content, Happeo hosts mid-to-long form content. That's also why we're happy that Happeo and Slack integrate together.”
“The new normal means that working from home is here to stay for our office employees. Happeo will continue to play an important role in team bonding and sharing of knowledge and success stories – both globally and locally.”
“My vision is that all 11,000 of us are singing from the same sheet of music. The way that I look at it, the best marketing dollars I can spend is to get 11,000 people to say the same thing, do the same thing, promote the same thing, and present a united front on who Trimble is.”
“Communicating to our employees is important to the connect and scale strategy that our CEO aims to achieve to transform the company. If you can't properly communicate with the employees, the employees can't be more effective for the customers. There was no effective way of providing content that everybody was happy with until we started using Happeo.”
