How does it work?

SIGNING UP

Employees sign up on the platform. They state which department they work in and how often they wish to take part.

Matching

Our intelligent algorithm matches one or more partners for lunch and sends invitations via email or Outlook.

Mystery Lunch

The matched employees meet for a “Mystery Lunch”. They network and have the chance to exchange information and work on new ideas.

Benefits

The use of Mystery Lunch promotes better internal communication within your organisation. Employees expand their personal networks and find it easier to seek out points of contact for important issues. At the same time, the face-to-face exchange of ideas between previously unacquainted colleagues strengthens the atmosphere of trust. All of this makes Mystery Lunch an important contributor to change management and cultural shift.

Mystery Lunch reduces the costs associated with complexity in systems, since the right connections make it possible for employees to work more efficiently. The costs of inter-workforce communication and, above all, of “gaps” in productivity – when partially completed work is discontinued pending the intervention of a third party and only resumed at a later date – are considerable and are insidious on account of their widespread invisibility. When communication is required to be carried out between multiple departments, buildings and even countries, the situation deteriorates even further.

Use cases

NETWORKING

When new departments are created following restructuring, cooperation in the new teams is of utmost importance. Rapid networking lays the foundation for breaking down misconceptions and working together efficiently -and Mystery Lunch can play an important role.

TALENT MATCHING

Mystery Lunch lets you bring talent and management together with purpose – for talent management of a very special kind. This gives rise to long-term, mutually beneficial relationships and new perspectives on happenings in the organisation. Ultimately, everyone wins.

ONBOARDING

In a time when many organisations are suffering a shortage of skills, the efficient integration of new employees plays an important role in a company’s success. Mystery Lunch is the ideal tool for the swift and hassle-free introduction of new members to the team – and helps lay the foundation for successful collaboration in minimal time.

SKIP-LEVEL LUNCHES

When colleagues network across and beyond hierarchical levels, both parties get a glimpse of the bigger picture. Managers are grounded in the day-to-day workings of the company and regular employees have a chance to understand the reasons behind particular strategic decisions. In each case, it promotes an open and enhanced company culture.

CHANGE PROJECTS

Change always begins in the mind. Whenever a change process is pending, its ultimate success depends on a smooth, frictionless design. This functions best when employees have a view “from above” of the entire organisation – and are able to develop an understanding of its future strategic direction. Mystery Lunch can play a useful role in this regard.

FAQs

Many organisations are dominated by silo mentality: departments collaborate inefficiently, exchange across teams and hierarchies is lacking and employees aren't informed about the responsibilities of other divisions. Mystery Lunch connects your employees over lunch and supports the creation of new connections, which ultimately reduces barriers between departments. Colleagues can expand their networks and learn more about the company as a whole. New perspectives are an important basis for innovation.

Mystery Lunch supports the idea of an open and innovative corporate culture, which includes giving employees sufficient freedom and creative leeway. While there won't, of course, be any monitoring of behaviour or performance, we will provide regular reports on factors including the total number of participants. Furthermore, we'll support your evaluation of positive changes resulting from the implantation of Mystery Lunch by conducting voluntary surveys.
