In the ever-evolving landscape of the business world, nurturing a vibrant company culture isn’t too different than that of educational settings. Enter Gatherer Rudy Blanco. As our Community Manager, he’s been bridging the gap between #education and #corporate culture through the introduction of tools traditionally used in EDU. With his help, we’ve already put a couple of tools into practice: 1️⃣ We’ve harnessed the power of Google #Classroom to host workshops on design and content development. This isn't just another virtual class; it's a chance for our network members to fine-tune their skills and receive personalized feedback on their projects. 2️⃣ #Jamboard is a great way to see everyone’s ideas in one place. It's like having a digital post-it board where everyone's ideas can shine. No more talking over each other; just pure collaboration and innovation. Of course, convincing teams to embrace these tools, especially in the hybrid era, can be a challenge. But as Rudy has demonstrated, the right tools, with the right approach, can successfully transcend their original purposes. So here’s the burning question: How do you see the parallels between educational and corporate culture-building in your organization? Are there any specific tools or strategies that you believe are essential for cultivating a strong sense of community in your biz, particularly in today's evolving work landscape? https://lnkd.in/e5d6JT3P
