How the Quest Works

The Network Building Quest is a chat-based, coaching-like experience that drives meaningful conversations, powerful ideas, and "a-ha!" moments around building networks. This approach enables the rapid, lasting adoption of innovative behaviors in your organization. We do this by:

action

Activity

Completions indicate that users have awareness and understanding of a topic.

Social Engagement

'Likes' and comments tell us that a user's insights are positively impacting others in the group and are initiating social learning.

The Challenges

According to a new LinkedIn study, close to 80% of professionals consider professional networking important to career success. Our Network Building Quest activates employees to build and maintain strong relationships with the people that matter. The 10 challenges encourage participants to not only reach out and form new relationships, but to also nurture, strengthen, and successfully maintain existing ones.

Choose a Goal

Break the Ice

Breaking the ice is an important tool to overcome initial awkwardness and make a good first impression. It's easier than you think!

Meet People

There are many ways to meet new people. The harder you practice, the luckier you get!

Be Intentional

How do you find the right people? It starts with knowing where the right people hang out!

Whether it's advice or an introduction – you'll never know until you ask!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes. Our quests drive the adoption of new behaviors and habits, and the best way to do this is by giving people the opportunity to practice and repeat.

    We do this in the form of a 10-day Quest. Each day, for the duration of the Quest, a participant accepts a bite-sized challenge. The challenge will introduce an offline activity to complete between online sessions. Once complete, a user will then come back and reflect on the experience of trying new behaviors. Reflecting on our experiences drives behavior change in a short time.

  • Designated administrators will have access to the "Manage" section of Cognician, which is our reporting dashboard.

    The "Manage" section gives administrators a collection of helpful information about participants and their activities on the platform. For example, every time someone uses a cog (short for "coaching guide", which is what we call a learning module at Cognician), the system logs their actions so that administrators can view the learner’s journey, how many cogs have been completed, and where the team seems to be struggling.

    Administrators can monitor general participant progress and export CSV documents that contain cog completion data and even the insights shared by the users.

  • Yes. We have a variety of Quests available, tailored to help you activate behavior change when it matters.

  • Yes. Cognician adheres to a data privacy model whereby privacy protections overlay most existing security protection mechanisms and the focus and investment is applied across People, Processes, and Technology.
