Our Customers Love Mystery Minds
We have been using Mystery Minds at Allianz Global Corporate & Specialty since the start of the coronavirus pandemic. During this time, it was the easiest way for many colleagues to get in touch with colleagues they didn't know and to look outside the box of their own department. Newcomers, in particular, have made great use of this and have built up an initial network. Meanwhile, our Lunch Roulette is an indispensable part of the daily life of the company and contributes to a lively corporate culture and lots of communication.
Daniel Aschoff, Head of Communications at Allianz Globagl Corporate & Specialty in Central and Eastern Europe
Collaboration is the fuel of the future – As a global technical service provider, it is important to us that our employees around the world network and exchange ideas. Mystery Coffee not only strengthens our innovative power, but also our corporate identity and the resilience of our employees.
Sina Marold, Head of HR Maritime Operations, Maritime at DNV
After more than 2 years, Mystery Coffee has become a key element of our employee experience and a great tool for fostering smooth internal communication. Thanks to the great customer service and ongoing advice from the Mystery Minds team, we also rolled it out internationally and now we can connect with colleagues in other countries too!
Cristina Conesa, Head of Marketing & Communications
Mystery Coffee has exceeded our expectations. When the pandemic started, we were looking for an effective way to significantly improve employee engagement in our increasingly virtual world. After 20 months, the user-friendly platform provided by Mystery Minds has created thousands of new relationships across our company. I get emails all the time from coworkers saying, ‘I just had the best Mystery Coffee’. I highly recommend it for any organization serious about driving positive company culture and employee engagement.
Tom Bachmann, Culture Shaping Manager and Senior Champion
Mystery Coffee is just such a great tool to stimulate conversations and build relationships across organizational boundaries and physical locations. I have met amazing colleagues I did not even know existed and had many deep and insightful conversations.
Joel Nielsen, Division of Human Resources / GLDC Chief of Regional Talent Management Team
The Caritas Coffee Calls have been a great experience. We were delighted with the very positive feedback we received from our colleagues. It helped people to meet who probably would never have encountered each other otherwise.
