Engaging employees during online team meetings with Slidocustomer story

“Slido took us from 0 to 100. Before, we only had assumptions about how many people were engaged in our team calls. Now we have facts, thanks to Slido.”Brian Davenport, VP of Service, A1 Garage Door Service A1 Garage Door Services is a growing business with 200 employees across ten U.S. states. To keep their field workers aligned and updated, they run weekly live-streamed team meetings.

Increasing employee engagement during leadership meetingscustomer story

“With Slido, we went from 5-6 employee questions received during our leadership meetings to over 100.”Jessica Kosmack, Senior Communications Specialist, Toronto Transit Commission The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) is the third largest public transportation agency in North America. During their regular leadership meetings, all 1,600 leaders gather to share updates, discuss the latest issues and align with the organizational strategy. Traditionally, TTC did not see a high engagement during the meetings. “The meeting participants had the opportunity to ask questions but most were reluctant or perhaps not interested in putting their hands up”, explained Jessica Kosmack, Senior Communications Specialist at the TTC. To address this, the TTC leveraged Slido to get more employees to participate actively. As a result, they increased the number of questions from only a handful to over 100 and brought people’s real concerns to light. Get inspired by the TTC story. Battling low engagement durin
