No more bad meetings.

We help remote-first companies ignite a mindset for innovation by guiding teams through facilitated virtual sessions that enable collaboration.

After a session by Hey, Facilitator, participants feel* engaged, efficient, organized, and happy. Leaving managers to feel confident in productivity and accountability.

Our sweet spots are Kickoffs, Brainstorms and Retrospectives.

*Feedback from ‘One-Word’ Retrospective sessions

What’s the vibe in your meetings?

Do you leave meetings experiencing a lack of alignment, no accountability, low engagement, cameras off, no agenda, one person talking… time wasted?

Wouldn’t it be great to feel the opposite of all that after your next meeting?

At Hey, Facilitator we inspire collaborative working to ensure our sessions have good ‘meeting vibes’ only. Which come with benefits:

Innovation & Productivity

Companies that collaborate are 30% more innovative and at least 36% more productive.

Effective Task Completion

Individuals who work in collaborative settings are 50% more effective at task completion.

Increased Job Satisfaction

Employees are 17% more satisfied with their job when they engage in collaboration at work.

And, Effects of Collaboration on Company Success = your return on investment
