Remote workers are craving more connection. 72% of global employees say they feel disconnected at work on a monthly basis, 55% say they feel disconnected at work each week. 69% of employees aren’t satisfied with the opportunities to connect with their colleagues and 3 in 5 employees say their leaders are not doing enough to cultivate connection within the team. Rivet’s remote work strategy ensures remote employees are getting the social exposures they need, in order to thrive in the workplace.
Rivet is used to connect new hires as a part of the onboarding experience. Rivet gets embedded as a part of the 30-60-90-day plan. New hires get matched to each other, current employees, or onboarding ambassadors, as a way to build connection and community early into their employment.
Pairing the right mentor and mentee is critical to any mentorship initiative. Rivet uses its compatibility algorithm to ensure the right mentors are working with the right mentees. Rivet makes both the matching process and mentorship launch sequence a breeze.
Relocating to a new city is one of the most lonesome experiences in life. Rivet helps transition new employees into their new city through a connective assimilation process. Using Rivet, relocation ambassadors get seamlessly onboarded into the experience - helping relocated team members navigate some of the challenges of integrating into a new place.
The Association for Talent Development (ATD) found that learners are 86% more likely to make good on a training goal when someone is there to hold them formally accountable. Rivet uses a post-learning peer partner model to match workshop attendees and then guide them through a post-learning journey that ensures support, encouragement, and guidance is provided. This leads to more learning application and more memorable learning experiences.
Rivet makes networking fun and impactful for interns. Companies use Rivet to connect their interns as a part of a “buddy” program or to various colleagues inside or outside their department. Networking can be nerve-racking for interns; Rivet makes it easy.
Companies like Pepsi, PPG, and CVS, use Rivet to connect their colleagues at corporate events. They use Rivet to ensure people are networking, building new relationships, and having fun with each other.
Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are ideal communities that are ripe for establishing connection. The problem, however, is that many ERG members don’t know who to reach out to or have a technological resource that helps them build better relationships within the group. Rivet’s ERG specific connection experience helps maximize the ERG community, helping members build more meaningful relationships with one another as a part of their ERG experience.
The mission of membership groups and associations is to build community. Rivet is the perfect tool to aid in that goal. Membership associations like SHRM use Rivet to introduce community members to one another as well as form sub-committees and assign mentors and mentees.
