Some Facts: - People working in silos (based on proximity, gender, or cultural background) in companies, and work is done sequentially instead of collaboratively. The collaborative output is not performing due to the lack of interaction - Ineffective collaboration due to the fact that people are connecting only with the same cultural or ethnic background (not inclusive). Companies don’t run at full capacity. There is more to expect from collaborating and motivated teams. - The actions companies take to solve this, most often don’t work in long term. Almost all of them require proactive action, which introverts don’t always take. and the events which are usually suggested are not accepted by everyone. - Although problems of collaboration are recognized as an onboarding issue, these are very often not resolved. Employees are willing to collaborate during onboarding because they are in their probationary period and they are new to the company. Right after the onboarding, reality sets in; barriers and silos become evident. We provide a Slack app that is grouping coworkers together "randomly" for lunch or any other occasion. We help companies improve: - Productivity in organizations by connecting coworkers of different departments and help them to align or share knowledge quicker and more often in future works, - Inclusivity by having blind lunch groups, - Onboarding by building a culture of human connection. Try it out, we'd like to hear feedbacks.

@mickc79 Hi 👋, of course I have the sources but I wanted to keep the context in a way where we can find ourselves and not like a scientific research. Maybe I could use the title "Frequent Observations" instead of "Facts"... But anyways, here is the source: https://www.prnewswire.com/news-... https://blog.sodexoengage.com/he... https://hbr.org/2009/11/new-stud... https://blogs.wsj.com/source/201... https://www.forbes.com/sites/for...

Seems like this was made without introverts in mind. For me this would be like Russian roulette.

@school_4_ants Hi Hunter, actually it is especially designed for introverts. And the best feedback we received so far were from introverts too! The reason for that is the tough first step in social connections. Lunch Roulette is taking over the first step which can also be considered as the ice-breaker, the rest works like a charm. Give it a try, would love to hear more from you.
