Overview

It is an established fact that an onboarding process provides better benefits for new hires when it's done the right way. The Covid-19 drastically complicated employee onboarding because it completely changed how we communicate, work, and connect in our new remote world.

The consequences of a bad onboarding can be dire and very real:
- low productivity
- low engagement
- high turnover

This Fun Fact game was created as a new step on remote onboarding to engage well established teams with new hires in an early stage of their onboarding. This way, new hires have a sense of belonging, get to know their colleagues, and increase their productivity from the beginning.

Insight

21% is the additional profitability obtained in companies with committed employees.
14 000€ is the cost of turnover per year and per employee.

The Project

My purpose was to manage the creation and deliveries of the project with all the teams.
I worked hand in hand with our content manager and our developer’s team to decide what were the rules and missions of this new game. I needed to ensure that the content manager created original and fun challenges that could be played by any kind of employee no matter what age, language, culture... and that the UX/UI designer drafted an easy-to-use platform and an intuitive game for the developers.

I also included the events coordinators team at the conception phase to ensure the animators played a major role in this game: help break the ice and create a dynamic between people that don't really know each other.

I then created the different sprints on Trello and a "risk sheet" in which I added the multiple possible problems and struggles we could have. Each team was also assigned to find solutions to these possible problems.

From the beginning, players need to agree on how they want to play this game by choosing their themes and characteristics. Their goal: win a maximum of points against other teams that are playing at the same time.

Game Features:
- The animator platform: the animator chooses to give or take away points
- The players platform: the players choose the challenges and put the answers
- The score chart: all teams can follow the number of points the other teams have
