Take the time before you move your communication to Yapster to take stock of existing group communication channels and which colleagues need lines of communication with each other.
Feel free to use the below template to organise the chats you need to replicate. Talk to your Yapster contact helping with your launch if you'd like custom group chats created.
Remember that some group conversations are automatically generated in Yapster thanks to our integrated HR connectors. It's worth looking into cross-company communication so that you can ensure that these conversations are set up and ready to be used when you move your communication to Yapster.
Ban Whatsapp or other shadow comms🚫
Shadow communication refers to communication systems or solutions used within an organisation without official approval. Employees regularly use private social media applications for collaboration and communication within their team. It's important that your social media policy accurately reflects official communication channels within the business.
Inform users that company comms will be moving away from these channels so that staff can benefit from a better work/life balance, and will no longer have to share personal details with work colleagues in order to complete day-to-day work tasks.
Using a countdown method will ensure a timely departure from shadow comms over to the official platform: "These group chats will be closed and moved to Yapster one week after you receive your Yapster email invite so make sure you get onboard!".
