Summary

Vectara is evolving work by using savvy tools and processes to keep its high-performing team engaged, inspired, and connected. The company's initial attempt at fostering human connection was met with impracticality, prompting a reassessment of their strategy. Vectara introduced various initiatives such as Global Summits, Small Groups, Global Fun, Roam, Coffee Chats, and Direct Team Events to support the growth of its team and balance costs and impact. The company's approach recognizes the evolving nature of work dynamics and adapts to industry, employee locations, and changing corporate landscapes. By focusing on effective collaboration and supporting connection organically, Vectara is shaping a workplace where human connection thrives in the hybrid era.
