Live 'Ideation' event

This event has concluded.

You can read a summary of the event, participant contributions and the lessons we learnt in the 'Summary' tab below.

Background

In these uncertain times and the recent restrictions to support social distancing, we have had numerous requests of how our EHQ digital tools can be used to replace or mimic face-to-face engagement events.

Whilst many are familiar with how you can use our 8 digital engagement tools, there are many ways these tools can be used to support and increase online engagement, or to be used to host a 'digital event'.

Stage 1 - Share your idea on the board and add a photo. Comment on other peoples ideas and share your experiences.

Stage 3 - Reporting back

Thank you to everyone who has contributed, we received 122 contributions and saw consistent ongoing engagement over our three days of this live digital event. Please look at the Summary below for the breakdown of our contributions or review the video above for a quick review.

Thank you for participating in our third live digital event - "What are your best tips and ideas for working from home ?"
The process
Over our three day event we asked participants to:
1. On Wednesday, 15 April at 11.30am AEST we invited participants to sign-in and contribute their best tips and ideas for working from home to the Ideas Board
2. On Friday, 17 April at 9am AEST new contributions were closed and voting was opened for participants to vote for their favourite tips and ideas, we sent out a reminder using the Newsletter Tool and by SMS
3. On Friday, 17 April at 12pm AEST the Ideas tool was closed and voting concluded.
4. We then crunched the numbers quickly using text analysis and the Ideas Tool report and prepared our feedback report.
5. Friday afternoon we uploaded this News Feed article and uploaded a short video summary to close the loop with our participants.
The outcomes
We received 48 visitors to the project, with 23 contributors providing 112 contributions
The sentiment was largely positive, with most ideas and comments responding positively to working from home:
In total we received 20 ideas, with the key themes being:
- Breaks and structure
- Fresh air and outside
- Social connections
- Work routine, setting up a workspace and schedule
- Movement and activity
The top ten ideas were:
1. Make time to get out into the sunshine - don't feel guilty
2. Start with setting my intentions for the day!
3. Make a stand up desk from your old DVD's (don't tell WH&S)
4. Spend a few minutes catching up at the start of online meetings.
5. Eat a proper lunch!
6. Create a standing desk...ideally near a window. I can see lots of trees from my stand up desk - seeing the trees reminds me to breath :)
7. The best way for me to 'finish' work and 'start' my own time is take a walk around the block... a very physical sign I've left the office.
8. Keep Moving and step away from the computer regularly
9. Turn your home into a jungle!
10. Bush walking
