Howspace

““When facilitating that kind of a process face-to-face, I would have been typing post-it notes for the whole day, but now it all happened in the workspace. By only clicking a few buttons, I could have a good listing of the most important topics our participants were discussing. That enabled sense-making in a new way.””

““The use of AI was critical when we identified our strategic capabilities, as we gathered a lot of data from our personnel. We got a lot of comments, opinions, and experiences from people in a written format, and the AI helped us to understand what was essential among massive amounts of data and opinions,” Järvinen recalls.”

““Nowadays, the core competence of HR is digital facilitation. HR is not a support function but a strategic function. We are the ones leading the learning and development of the organization to achieve and execute the strategy and vision ambitiously. We’re living in a world full of heavy employee questionnaires. However, it’s still good to remember that sometimes just asking something very briefly and taking all of the people on board already creates the atmosphere of collaboration,” Järvinen outlines.”

““One of the best things with Howspace was that we were able to offer learning opportunities that relate to daily work and support the fun and easy ways of learning and reading,” she continues.”

““With Howspace, people were able to join the process whenever, wherever. It was wonderful that we had some pre-study before the workshops and during and after the events. People learned on the go, in small pieces, and when they had the motivation. We also had some quizzes and polls that immediately gave us excellent insight on how people experienced our strategy,”, Järvinen says.”

“Mia asserts: “We utilize Howspace in our client work, both in the planning phase and in change leadership. Howspace has helped us streamline change communication and engage people in various ways.”.”

“Something I also appreciate is that I can see statistics on the activity on the platform. It is good to see what arouses people’s interest and how many we can reach. It gives us valuable information about what works best and what we need to develop next.”

“Howspace is a good and appreciated tool for processing customer experiences. We save a lot of time and administration costs. It is handy for the participants that all the material is collected in only one place. In addition, it is easy to share experiences in the platform and thus learn from each other,”

“Howspace helps us bring everyone together and encourage collaboration.”

“This tool really democratizes the conversation and sends a powerful message about inclusivity,”

“Before, we’d have to pause to read through all the comments or try to scan them while speaking or listening to someone else. But now we can instantly access summaries and sentiments, or turn comments into polls . It’s really helpful for understanding what’s happening in the room and adjusting the conversation accordingly.”

“Howspace empowers facilitators and users—it’s the right balance between flexibility and support.”

“Showing the impact on individual participants has been a huge benefit for us.”

“Instead of relying on slide decks, we now think about the entire participant journey. We’re creating meaningful, engaging experiences from start to finish—not just asking participants to watch a presentation.”

“Howspace allows us to recreate the connections and idea-sharing that happen naturally in face-to-face settings.”

“Howspace helps us save on third-party tool costs.”

“What we really wanted to create here was a journey that is seamless with your work and daily life. Having a platform like Howspace to facilitate that journey is absolutely crucial.”

“Reaching out to each other with a suggestion or to ask for help has clearly become more common. And this ties in with the impact of COVID: the ongoing leadership program has allowed Posten and Bring to bring in their leaders to this massive change progress, meaning they are better equipped to handle those enormous volumes that are currently coming in.”

“Jumping from one system to another is quite exhausting during a webinar or digital training. It really helps to have everything in the same place. Including documentation, by the way! It stays there, and you can always go back and read on it if you wish.”

“There are so many features that we felt really made things effortless. For example, we made a variety of webinars available for the 750 leaders to choose from, including topics like coaching, virtual collaboration, change management, or energy management. Everyone in HR, usually responsible for bookings, was so delighted to see how easy it was for people to sign up for webinars in Howspace. Everything is self-booking, so you don’t have to play with spreadsheets.”

““That’s definitely an element we didn’t have before – in addition, Howspace creates transparency by making all documents and recordings available to all participants whilst also allowing an open dialogue.””

““Howspace is more intuitive than a Teams channel, especially for reflecting together in large groups. But on the whole, it doesn’t replace tools like Microsoft Teams; it complements them,” he adds.”

““The main advantage is the possibility to exchange ideas with each other, for example, in retrospectives or through checking the current mood,” says Claus.”

““I don’t know of any platform that could replicate what Howspace can do. It’s intuitive, simple, and applicable to many use cases,” Claus states.”

““What Howspace offered was a very functional and easy way to build our own training style, to take something and make it our own in many ways.””
