If you’ve been following InnovatorsBox’s journey, you’ll have noticed that as the world turned upside down with COVID and the meaning of how we work and live changed, we pivoted fast and sharp.
The pandemic brought us on an abrupt halt and ushered in a new era of remote work as our offices and workplaces were shut down until unforeseeable future. And as someone who used to travel a lot and conduct business in physical spaces, this change and digital transformation meant that we needed to be creative about how we pivot and rethink what our future may look like.
So we did. And while our future looked blurry at first, the way we adapted and shifted helped us grow tremendously.
- Our reach and engagement grew
- We scaled our already growing team with care and intention
- We grew our production capacity
- We expanded our reach through collaborative efforts
- We were able to bring more creative content to our community
- And the length of our project engagement also grew to multi-months and year-long projects, which means we can serve our clients on culture, leadership, and team development pain points better.
Staying true to our mission to bring creativity to all, we have been working relentlessly to widen our reach and impact through the pandemic and beyond.
- We launched two podcasts, Curious Monica and Dear Workplace.
- We brought two programs to market, Culture of Analytics (in collaboration with Proximo) and Adapt to Grow (in collaboration with Focus USA).
- We’re also bringing Innovators’ Kitchen, a special series at the intersection of food and leadership lessons, with Eliza Martin.
And we also have other great initiatives we’re working on, which will be announced in the upcoming weeks and months. As we expand the InnovatorsBox® Universe, we realized that not only did our digital footprint need to mirror that, but we also needed to put accessibility, clarity, user experience, and good aesthetics front and center.
So we went back to the drawing board.
For us, our website isn’t just an online brochure that lists our products and services. We value user experience (UX) a lot and thus, we’ve put a tremendous amount of thought, intention and work in ensuring that our website becomes a form of a portal and an intentional space to seek information, find resources, and to engage and participate.
Some of the key changes you will notice when we launch will be:
- Improved user experience
- Better clarity in how, and in what ways, we can help you
- Accessibility and ease of use
- Ability to seek and find information easily
- Learn, engage, and participate more
With this redesign, we’re hoping to make the layout so fluid and intuitive that you can easily find the information you need.
We’re also tightening the security of our website so we can make our digital home and presence as trustworthy as possible for you.
As the business grows, our website and the content we serve are also growing in epic proportions — and therefore, we also recognize the need for innovative ways to keep the site speed up – so we’ve been working on building in a way that the site loads fast without jeopardizing on content or quality.
We want to ensure accessibility with ease, therefore, mobile optimization is one of our top priority so that we can move with you as you move around at work, on the go, and in the living rooms!
And so much more.
We understand that our website isn’t for us, it’s for you – our customers, partners, and community at large. And by keeping the layout harmonious and consistent, by continuously adding fresh content, helpful resources and tools, and by focusing on serving more innovators better and on giving back, we hope that it will resonate with you in a deeper and meaningful way.
We’re very excited as we’re working on building a robust digital home to the InnovatorsBox® universe. And we can’t wait to finish bringing it to life and opening our doors for you!
Stay tuned!
