The digital transition in businesses
Our companies, during their digital transitions, have often lost their human character. Digital technology is now at the heart of our jobs but we must draw the right elements from it to create and unite teams, so how can we achieve this challenge?
Recreating links between its employees with internal projects is the challenge of Antoine Coulaud, the managing director of AXILEO.
At the launch of Teamstarter at AXILEO and allocates €30 per month to its employees on the platform so that they can engage in internal projects. In 2 weeks, the result is there, with 7 projects created: 1 completed and 3 funded at more than 80%!
“Teamstarter is an innovative solution that allows us to undertake, innovate and come together around projects that are important to us. This is the digital link we needed to complete our vision of an ethical, social and innovative company.” - Antoine - CEO of AXILEO.
The example of the “1001 Fontaines” project
This week we are telling you the story of the first project carried out: “1001 Fontaines”!
At the head of this project, Alexis, 30, communication manager, who united his colleagues around a project that makes sense for employees as well as for the company.
As a child, Alexis was sensitized by eco-citizen associations:
“My mother volunteered for Restos du Coeur for 20 years. One year, I helped him distribute meals on Christmas Day, I was impressed by all these people who could not afford a meal or celebrate this holiday.” - Alexis.
So when he saw that AXILEO allowed him to get involved in projects of his choice, he jumped at the chance and immediately decided to get involved in a cause. He decided to join an ethical association, which made sense for him and for his company, and made it possible to raise everyone's awareness.
“We are in the 21st century and children do not have access to water, even though it is a primary and vital need.” - Alexis.
He chooses 1001 Fontaines, which make it possible to provide drinking water to school children in developing countries.
And because communication is his job, he takes care to present his project well so that his colleagues want to finance it and explains the importance of this association: it is not only giving for water, it also prevents all diseases related to it. It is a small association, which allows you to see the results of their contributions.
He wants to raise 100 euros, which would allow 50 schoolchildren to be able to drink drinking water for 1 year!
The implementation of the project
As soon as his project is created, he is a hit with his colleagues: in just 5 days, his project is 100% funded!
“Without Teamstarter, I wouldn't have been able to do this project. As an individual, it's complicated to raise funds and communicate even if the idea is relevant. With this platform, all employees were aware, in addition, it is a very good indicator of the envy of their colleagues: if the project is liked, it is financed!” - alexis
On Teamstarter, anyone can propose projects that make sense for the company: for us, listening is the first step in putting people back at the heart of your business.
Listening is good, but doing is better! And that's the whole purpose of our platform: once the financing is complete, the implementation is done by the employees. The desires of your employees are not only heard but also fulfilled!
These projects make it possible to unite employees and thus recreate links and a sense of belonging.
“I am very proud to be in an ethical, responsible and eco-citizen company, which offers the means to get involved and propose this type of project. Teamstarter gives me the chance to express myself in my business. ” - alexis
