Workplace was an all-in-one organizational communication app built by Meta that combined chat, video, groups and intranet with the work tools that teams already use. Workplace has 7 million users globally, and was a direct competitor with Microsoft Teams. I led the design for the Integrations team. The team’s mission was to amplify organizational communications across third party work tools like Slack, Zoom and Workday.

Workplace had high adoption among organization communication teams, but sometimes less than 30% adoption among end users. End users preferred to work in their favorite collaboration tools like Slack and MS Teams, and would miss important company updates on Workplace.
Communication teams would forward content to these platforms through integrations, but they were missing a good, centralized way to curate content and oversee the sharing of it to other platforms.
Our goal was to increase how frequently communication leaders shared workplace content with their employee base, thereby increasing the viewership of content by end users.
We built a tool that let communication teams curate content on Workplace, and then organize and share it with integrated platforms, including digital signage in office spaces via AppSpace, all from one interface.
