THE COFFEE TALK story
Beginnings.
Our desire to foster a connected organization (and the ingenuity of one of our developers) fueled the creation of Coffee Talk. Simple yet powerful, Coffee Talk leverages automation to bring together your people (employees, cohort groups, board members, teams…) for virtual or in-person connections—coffee optional!
Impact.
Research indicates (and our heads & hearts tell us) that social connections at work play a critical role in employee experience—including increased engagement, productivity, and loyalty. When organizations commit to fostering relationships, they create a collaborative culture that improves innovation and business outcomes.
Simplicity.
Name, email, go! One of the best parts of Coffee Talk is how quickly we can get you up and running. After a brief intro discussion, we simply pre-load your group’s email addresses, or provide a link for individuals to opt-in. That’s it. Coffee Talk is ready to go! You can also customize the frequency and length of Coffee Talk connections and organize your members by group.
Sharing.
We’ve been using Coffee Talk for many years. It’s fostered the start of mentorships, friendships, and business innovations! When much of the business community went virtual in early 2020, it just felt right to share Coffee Talk with the broader community. Coffee Talk is free, which is our small way of making more connections possible in a disconnected time.
