You've joined the team that makes News the go-to place to keep up to date with your organization. If you would like a quick introduction to News, you can check out the video on this page of our website.
News is managed by both News Editors (can own this part of the platform and can manage, edit, and remove anyone's News Items) and News Reporters (can create, edit, and remove their own content, as well access metrics for the News Items they publish).
To positively impact culture and engagement, it is important to provide a News content that consistently delivers the real-time happenings from across your organization. Encourage a mix of content (big and small stories, workplace-related, and human interest) and content types (text, photos, videos, polls, embedded content, links).
If you've joined as a News Editor, your role involves not only contributing content to News, but also assisting in its overall strategy and maintenance.
If you've joined as a News Reporter, your job is to frequently share "small" stories that provide interesting facts, feature fascinating people, or celebrate accomplishments in your part of the company. Let everyone know what your location or department is up to.
Delivering stories in real time is much more engaging than only publishing groomed announcements (well-crafted, press-release-like articles). Reflecting the human side of your organization will create interest and bring your workplace culture to life. Help energize your company!
