TORONTO — Sensei Labs, a developer of data-driven digital workplace solutions, today announced a strategic partnership with WE, a family of organizations that makes doing good, doable. The news also marks the launch of WE connect, a state-of-the-art platform that connects the organization’s team members around the world and helps them accelerate their growth and culture.

“WE has seen massive growth over the last few years, and we are so excited to work with Sensei Labs on this exciting platform that will empower our team to truly act as one on a global level,” said Russ McLeod, Executive Director, Social Enterprise, WE. “WE connect is a one-stop-shop for everything our team needs to know about the organization, and gives them the tools and knowledge to empower youth, families and communities round the world with everything they need to create effective change.”

Jay Goldman, co-founder and CEO of Sensei Labs, said, “We are very proud to be partnering with WE and helping them make a difference in the world. We have a longstanding history with WE that has grown out of a respect and admiration for all the good they do, and a close alignment between both our companies’ cultures.”

As an internal communications, collaboration, work orchestration, and learning platform, WE connect provides WE team members with the company information they need to collaborate at scale and thrive in WE’s fast-paced work environment. The platform’s integrated social app, with its dynamic news feed, lets team members share content and interact and connect with peers around the world. It also enables WE to reinforce and amplify its strong cultural values and empower their people in a progressive, new way.

To maximize the platform’s reach and impact, the solution also includes SenseiTV – a dynamic digital signage system that posts select WE connect content, such as team member role changes, birthdays, new hires and priorities and events, on large flatscreen TVs across WE’s global headquarters in Toronto.

WE connect is built on Sensei Labs’ Catalyst family of work apps, designed to engage people while helping them to communicate, orchestrate work, and make better decisions. The platform is completely configurable and is mobile responsive with dedicated Android and iOS apps available.
