Sykehuspartner engages employees through game-based communication

How can internal communication and culture building become more engaging? Sykehuspartner used Wittario to combine learning, movement and competition through a digital Easter quiz for all employees and an activity-based team game at a leadership gathering.

There was a great deal of engagement both with the Easter quiz and at the leadership gathering in Larvik, where we did team building. We can see that the tool can be used both for fun and play and to work on culture, values and strategy.

Why

Sykehuspartner

chose Wittario

Combine professional content with play and competition

Encourage activity and interaction at leadership gatherings

Engage employees through game-based activities

One platform for both digital and in-person activities

Communicate culture and values in a new way

Background and challenge

Sykehuspartner wanted a tool to make internal communication and information sharing more engaging. Traditional presentations and announcements do not always get through as effectively, so the organisation wanted to try a more active approach.

The aim was both to create an enjoyable activity for all employees around Easter and to make a leadership gathering more involving through movement and collaboration.

How

Sykehuspartner

solved the challenge

Sykehuspartner chose a package of two Wittario activities: a digital Easter quiz for all employees and a distance-based team game at a leadership gathering in Larvik.

✓
The Easter quiz was shared with all employees through the intranet and combined traditional Easter questions with questions about Sykehuspartner’s values, culture and work. Across eleven tasks, participants tested their knowledge and got to know the organisation better.
✓
After the professional programme at the leadership gathering, the leaders went outside for a team game. They worked together and moved between tasks that revisited key themes from the gathering, while enjoying an active, social break.

From challenge to solution

The Easter quiz showed how internal communication can become more engaging. Instead of sending information in an email or document, messages about the organisation’s values, working environment and structure were built into a quiz with points, competition and an Easter theme.

Several tasks combined facts about Sykehuspartner with traditional Easter questions, creating a good balance between learning and entertainment.

At the leadership gathering, participants experienced how the same platform could also be used out in the field. Through movement, collaboration and work-related tasks, learning became an active part of the gathering.

Why does this work?

People learn and remember better when they participate actively.

Combining game mechanics, competition and movement with professional content makes information more relevant and easier to remember. The activities also create a social setting in which employees collaborate and reflect together.

For Sykehuspartner, this means the same platform can support culture building, internal communication and leadership development.

Results and testimonials

Feedback from both the Easter quiz and the leadership gathering was very positive.
