WERKIN for Business and Teams.
People development that actually grows your business.
Support a new and improved way of working.
If you are considering a remote or hybrid workplace, you need a way to keep your people connected to each other, the organisation and its culture. Run a mentoring program and / or kick your business into top gear with a Business Growth Bootcamp. It will keep your people focussed on the growth of your business and result in highly empowered, engaged employees.
‘Invisible’ intelligence.
With WERKIN for businesses and teams, there is no need to install anything new or to convince everyone to download or use yet another app. Our invisible intelligence meets your people where they already are - in their inbox. Let our algorithm do the heavy lifting.
The smart way to invest in your people.
Develop your people by leveraging your biggest asset (your other people), all without incurring extra cost. Internal mentoring and coaching is a no-brainer and is a great complement to your regular business growth programs. In addition to growing professionally, your people feel heard and valued which leads to greater engagement, increased happiness and improved well-being.
Protect your business.
Post pandemic, upwards of 40% of people are thinking of quitting their jobs and leavers will take your organisational knowledge with them. Insure yourself against this loss and formalise a process that guarantees this knowledge is shared with others and stays in your company.

Why use this for your business or team
Different times call for different measures.
In a remote working environment, people are looking for guidance and human connection - mentoring can bridge this gap between the old normal and the new normal and can be transformative for teams of all sizes. Onboarding new employees has become harder and it takes a lot longer for those hires to make new connections and build relationships. This also means it takes longer for them to drive maximum value for your business. Even if things are feeling ok, wouldn’t you like to engage every one of your employees in actively building and growing your business?
Automated and self-managing
Do more (better) with less.
If you need to do more with less, it makes sense to find systems that enable your employees to grow without needing to invest huge amounts of your own time. This is where the rest of your workforce comes in, however, running manual mentoring programs is a laborious and time consuming task and you probably don’t want to dedicate a full-time resource or overload one of your star players.
Let our invisible technology do the heavy lifting for you. On a rolling basis, we create great matches for your people and guide the development of fruitful mentoring relationships and continuous learning outcomes. All delivered as email nudges direct to their email inbox.
Compact and multi-purpose
The Swiss army knife for mentoring and coaching
Do your leaders need a more formal structure for nurturing your rising stars? Would a buddy program smooth out the wrinkles in your current onboarding process? Do you wish there was an easy way to do reverse mentoring to support your D&I initiatives? How about a ‘30 day back to the office’ challenge to get everyone connected and engaged around the new company vision? Or a 5, 12 or 30 day business growth bootcamp?
WERKIN can be used in so many ways. It’s a quick process to set up the type of program you want to run and invite your people to join. Each program has tailored guidance and nudges, designed to deliver the program outcomes and optimised using data from hundreds of organisations who have used it.
Continuous 360° feedback and insight
Know what your employees are truly feeling now.
Not only can WERKIN serve as the mothership for all mentoring relationships, conversations and outcomes, it creates a ‘safe space’ for all employees to grow and learn. This gives you a way to continuously track the progress and development of your people.
We use continuous feedback loops for effective employee management, and real time interventions. The system includes pulse checks, polling, surveys, OKR and performance tracking amongst others.
“WERKIN is like the coach that helps you work out where you want to get to, shows you how to kick things off and then gives you the encouragement to keep going and push beyond."

How is WERKIN for Business and Teams different to your platform?

Our WERKIN for Business and Teams offering, is a light version of the product without the app interface, that delivers nudges to your inbox and gives you an admin dashboard to run them.
Does WERKIN for Business and Teams have programs for both mentoring and business growth?

For mentoring you can choose between traditional career, reverse or network (peer) mentoring. For our Business Growth Bootcamp we have 5, 12 and 30 day challenges. When you sign up for a free trial, we recommend you choose either mentoring or business growth to get started.
What on earth is a ‘nudge’ and how does it work?
Based on insight from the behavioural data of thousands of successful mentoring relationships, WERKIN has crafted intelligent ‘nudges’ that guide and shape behaviour. Together these nudges are delivered as a ‘program’ with a specific end goal in mind i.e. career mentoring or business growth.
To get a bit technical, Nudge Theory is a way to create change through choice architecture. This simply means that your employees will make better choices if you present them in the right way at the right time.
Using the full WERKIN platform, nudges are delivered in many ways, including alerts and notifications as well as embedded in the very UI of the app. When using WERKIN for Business and Teams, they are delivered via email. Both use behavioural data and feedback loops to deliver timely, intelligent and effective nudges.
My team are already so busy, how do we fit this into our schedules?
WERKIN for Business and Teams is designed to fit around the work that needs to be done. You and your team are setting new habits through regular practice, and it’s the nudges that keep you practicing regularly.
Clear expectations are set at the beginning of each week for any tasks to be done and each employee can schedule their time accordingly. Timely nudges will be delivered to drive action and capture feedback.
How does a mentoring program work?
Once you have signed up, it takes less than 5 minutes to set up a program using your personalised admin dashboard. You can decide what type of program you want to run (traditional career, reverse or network mentoring), who can join and when you want to start. People are automatically matched to others in the available pool and the program takes care of the rest.
The program establishes good mentoring practices: it helps people to set and track their career goals, brokers connections and meet ups between matches, captures feedback on an ongoing basis and tracks the outcomes. People are re-matched based on the cadence that you set.
How does the Business Growth Bootcamp work?
Once you have signed up, it takes less than 5 minutes to set up a challenge using your personalised admin dashboard.

You and your team will be coached to build the right kind of culture to support business growth, shown how to develop and execute measurable business growth experiments and validate their potential. The nudges will keep the team on point to deliver both quicks wins and visibility into massive growth opportunities for your business.
