Looking for a technical co founder to help with a scheduling web app for remote employees. This can also be used for in office employees but as a remote worker this is where I am basing my experience.
My solution fills the gap for when the pandemic first started and companies scrambled to work remotely and managers were completely clueless about how to handle those employees. The web application is designed to handle the scheduling and follow ups with employees for you.
Essentially you create your “team” with schedules and then enter how many meetings or check ins you should have with each employee that month. For example in my organization I meet with everyone in the beginning of the month for a 1x1 where we identify goals for the month or any changes they may need to work on. This is followed by two check ins later in the month to check their progress on items we established in the 1x1.
As you meet with employees you fill out a template that helps you establish those goals so it is clear and concise. Once the meeting is over, copies are sent to the employee.
The scheduling aspect happens at the beginning of the month where the system automatically sends out meeting invites that match the employees schedule. For example it would create a 30 minute meeting for employees early in the month followed by two 15 minute checkins later in the month. This can obviously be adjusted based on your particular business need but it is a great way to hold employees as well as yourself accountable.
Because the app is very generalized it can still be used for in office employees as well. This is because it is designed to provide emails and feedback directly to the employee as well providing a documented paper trail in the event something needs to go to HR (performance issues).
There are a couple other applications that I have come across that are similar. However, they are very bloated and move into HR territory which is not something I am interested in. For example, Lattice is somewhat similar but not as focused on management/meetings.
I am not a strong developer, hence the need for a technical co founder that can support some of the heavy lifting on the backend. Calendar integration etc. I am confident in my ability to design things but will likely have questions to help guide me to achieved the results that we would want in the MVP.
I have a rough version of this app done in FileMaker that I have been using for awhile but it is obviously missing the scheduling part and the glitz of a web app. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns and please feel free to message me if need be.
Lastly, I consider myself very easy to work with and am open to any and all ideas whether it be fundamental changes/additions or smaller design fixes. Whatever we feel would provide the best overall customer experience.
Oh, one last thing. I do not have a name picked out yet. Some I have been playing with but nothing concrete so your ideas are welcome!
Thank you again for taking the time to read this and again I look forward to hearing from you!
