Challenge

Flourish, a hospitality and retail business located in Saltford has previously faced challenges in internal communication across its 64 employees spanning various departments and locations. Their reliance on WhatsApp groups proved inefficient for spreading information, leading to staff uncertainty about events and other important matters. This lack of clarity negatively impacted sales opportunities. Seeking a solution, Flourish discovered and implemented the OurPeople communications platform, which revolutionized their internal communication processes.

Solution

Flourish learned about the OurPeople platform through one of their managing directors, who came across it at a conference. The platform was rolled out within the company, with management receiving initial training followed by an onboarding process for all staff members.

Flourish has found the forms feature particularly useful for daily checks across departments, ensuring tasks like temperature checks and equipment inspections are now recorded efficiently. Additionally, the broadcast feature has enabled streamlined communication of important updates and events to all staff members.

Results

Flourish's adoption of the OurPeople platform has addressed their internal communication challenges effectively, fostering better staff awareness, efficiency and eco-friendly practices. The success of the platform highlights its suitability for businesses seeking streamlined internal communication solutions.
