How the Quest Works

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

Action Learning (icon representing action)

Activity

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

Email follow through and reminders (email icon)

Follow-Through

Positive activation checks show that users have followed through and taken specific actions.

Reflection

Insights demonstrate that users have reflected on their experiences in a way that reinforces the desired mindsets.

Social Engagement icon

Social Engagement

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

One of the most valuable ways to remain agile is to make sure you're constantly learning – skills, technologies, or new approaches!

The Challenges

Agile employees and teams are resilient and get results. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology found that agile organizations grow revenue 37% faster and generate 30% higher profits than non-agile ones. Our Workplace Agility Quest activates employees to adapt by embracing change and collaborating and communicating effectively. The eight challenges encourage participants to take concrete actions to build their resilience, keep them on track, and address rapidly changing business needs.

CHALLENGES
 DESCRIPTION
1

Change Your Course

Adapting to what's happening around us is the foundation of agility. Whether it's changing technology or industry trends, it's integral to our growth.

2

Listen

If you aren't listening to what's going around you, you won't be able to change course and meet rapidly changing business needs.
3

Collaborate

Break down the barriers to create a space to explore, create, and experiment together.
4

Be Proactive

Being proactive is essential to quick decision-making and fast thinking. Be autonomous and empowered! 
5

Communicate Effectively

Change is the only constant. In order to be responsive and open to optimization, we need to be able to communicate our strategies and approach quickly, accurately, and effectively.
6

Be Disciplined

In an agile environment, performance isn't usually tracked at every step. Self-discipline is key to reaching your goals.
7

Build Your Resilience

Becoming agile means that you're no longer discouraged by problems or roadblocks, you're focused on quick workarounds to stay on track.
8

Be a Lifelong Learner

One of the most valuable ways to remain agile is to make sure you're constantly learning – skills, technologies, or new approaches!

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 Multi-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.
