Introducing Popwork 2.0 ✨

by Johann Molinari

Since the start, our ambition with Popwork has been to transform team management for the better.

We started with 1-to-1 meetings.
Each week, thousands of managers and team members catch up efficiently thanks to Popwork.

Today, we are taking Popwork to a new level.
We’re launching Popwork 2.0 - The smart assistant for team leaders.

A new and more ambitious product vision

Popwork 2.0 is the result of 18 months of progress thanks to your feedback:

  • All-in-one for all your management rituals 🤝
  • Smart with insights and expert tips 🔮
  • Integrated with your favorite tools 🔌

🤝 By all-in-one, we mean that Popwork has to enable team leaders to drive great all management rituals: one-to-one meetings, objectives and key results, performance and development conversations.
Our long-term vision is to enable managers to build their own management culture on Popwork in a few clicks.

🔮 By making Popwork smarter, we want to enable team leaders to continuously learn important insights about their team members and management best practices.
Popwork will help any manager grow into a leader thanks to the right insights, alerts and recommendations.

🔌 Finally, by integrating Popwork with third-party solutions, we want to have a platform that runs smoothly in the daily lives of managers and teams.
Popwork will deliver the right information in the right place at the right time.
