Revamping Confidence, Communication and Organization at Work with Empowering Employee Training: A Case Study

Seven people dressed in business casual attire sit around a long wooden conference table with papers and a laptop. They smile at each other and one person points at the laptop. They sit in a bright room with white floors and a brick wall.

A leading marketing agency in Vancouver, Canada is recognized for its dedicated and talented employees. Despite their readiness to develop, recent organizational changes revealed issues with employee morale and confidence. Team leaders needed an engaging team training resource to build stronger relationships, organization, and confidence within the corporate team.

The Problem

Before discovering GettaMeeting, the team struggled with a few main challenges:

  • Low Confidence: Team members felt apprehensive about stepping up and taking on leadership responsibilities, even though they were eager to progress.
  • Poor Interpersonal Communication: Communication and collaboration had become siloed, and employees felt disconnected from each other — the workplace lacked a sense of belonging.
  • Disorganization and Inefficiency: Without clear organizational routines, productivity and workload management suffered as the company continued to grow.
  • Lack of Positivity and Encouragement: Employees needed guidance on how to motivate peers constructively. Employees were often missing opportunities for leadership, feedback, and motivating conversations.

Leadership recognized that standard training modules weren’t making an impact. They needed a solution tailored to both the personal and group dynamics of the team, ideally one that sparked excitement and active participation.

The Solution

After evaluating several options, leadership selected the Employee Empowerment Series Bundle from GettaMeeting. This ready-to-use virtual training solution stood out for three main reasons:

  1. Engaging Culinary Themes: Each module cleverly connects workplace skills with food, making sessions memorable and relatable.
  2. Comprehensive, Instantly Accessible Content: Every module comes with a professionally hosted video, printable word cloud, and an enhancement pack filled with book recommendations, a curated playlist, team-building activities, inspirational quotes, and more. Everything is instantly downloadable after purchase, saving meeting hosts time.
  3. Real-World Application and Flexibility: Facilitators received the plug-and-play meeting video with customizable enhancements and games that worked for both in-person and virtual meetings.

Implementation

The company rolled out the Employee Empowerment Series in three sessions over the course of two weeks.

First, Build Relationships: Breaking Bread: Team members explored their strengths and learned to recognize and value the strengths of colleagues. Activities focused on building trust, empathy, and communication skills using the universal language of food.

Next, Get Organized: Mise en Place: Employees learned routines and productivity hacks inspired by the culinary arts. The module provided step-by-step tools that could be immediately integrated into daily workflow, leading to better organization and stress management.

Lastly, Power of Positive Influence: Recipe for Positive Influence: Designed for individuals seeking to take on more responsibility, this module taught the foundational “ingredients” for becoming a positive force at work, highlighting authenticity, engagement, and inspiration.

All three meeting modules included clear guides for the meeting hosts with tips for discussion, interactive exercises, and even suggestions for themed snacks to reinforce the modules' messages. The meeting host included snacks and games in each session to keep with the fun and excite the team.

Results

The marketing team saw immediate improvements in major areas following the Employee Empowerment Series sessions, such as:

  • Stronger Team Connections: Employees reported a renewed sense of camaraderie. According to a team poll, 84% of participants felt more connected to their colleagues after completing “Build Relationships: Breaking Bread.”
  • Boosted Confidence & Engagement: Team members expressed increased confidence in voicing ideas and volunteering for leadership opportunities, as expressed in post-session feedback.
  • Improved Organization & Productivity: The practical routines from “Get Organized: Mise en Place” led to a noticeable boost in daily productivity. Several participants began using new organization techniques within days.
  • Positive Influence Ripple Effect: After “Recipe for Positive Influence,” employees felt more comfortable supporting one another, fostering a more connected culture of celebrated achievements and encouragement.

Quote from a meeting participant:

“The food themes made each session fun and interesting, but the skills we learned also stuck with me. I’ve started using the mise en place method not just at work, but at home too!”
