Getting tough to stay on track of how other teams are doing? Possible way is here NOW!
Massive communication for circular notice from back-office teams ( e.g. General affairs, Human Resources, IIT) to the entire employees are delivered through email or chat workspace like Slack workspace through a dedicated channel for official announcements.
Compared to email, Slack communication tool provides an instant notification to the employee by using different type of mention starting with @xxx
- @here ( to all channel members who is in active status)
- @channel ( to all channel members)
- @member account
or you can refers more detail for how to use Slack to notice in the workspace
In addition to the back-office people, one of the hot use case is when other division want to share to other folks of their division holding an important meeting such as Sales strategy for next fiscal , New product roadmap from Business Development , or Technical session updates.
These nature of such announcement is slightly different to what Back-office People in a way that it is not mandatory but “welcome for other non-division members to attend and hear it out”.
The common way to promote is announcing in main channel for the entire company with dedicated date & meeting link to join. Some case those division send calendar to entire company, but that might be too disturbing since the attending is optional. Well some people who check out the post can mark their schedule to attend by adding to his/her calendar.
But, the timeline notification is like a waterfall…..Several people missed it.
For instances, one of the employee mentioned to us
I missed important meeting "Quarterly Sales Session"
It's struggling for me to find the post because Slack timeline is easily
get missed. It gets buried with other posts.
Normally I could partially observe in the office before we shift to

Like he described some difficulty when the company is shifted to Work From Home policy, it became unobservable to notice what is happened in the company, how is other division is doing. Normally such meeting is held in open-area visible to any employee from other division to attend and engage.
