We can tell this is a problem through Journalists Six Questions; Who? Employees at WakingUp. What? Face-to-face meetings. When? Too often during the week. Where? Office hours at WakingUp. Why? We do not have a solid online system for communication. How? We fix the problem by finding a sufficient online platform to communicate. ]]> 2018-08-03 15:41:16 UTC https://padlet.com/gabbybelskus/bo3eauvsd09g/wish/271897795 gabbybelskus https://padlet.com/gabbybelskus/bo3eauvsd09g/wish/271898157 The cause of the problem is that WakingUp has not kept up with the times of technology in their company. Another cause may be that they do not know what online platform to use. The effect is that they spend too much time in face-to-face meetings. ]]> 2018-08-03 15:45:52 UTC https://padlet.com/gabbybelskus/bo3eauvsd09g/wish/271898157 gabbybelskus https://padlet.com/gabbybelskus/bo3eauvsd09g/wish/271898285 There are several options for solutions to this problem. The first solution is WakingUp could start implementing use of facebook to communicate. This is an easy way to hold virtual discussions. A second solution is to begin using Skype. Skype is mainly used for video chatting and allows for more than two people to be in the chat.]]> 2018-08-03 15:47:57 UTC https://padlet.com/gabbybelskus/bo3eauvsd09g/wish/271898285 gabbybelskus https://padlet.com/gabbybelskus/bo3eauvsd09g/wish/271898314 Facebook
