Brightful careers

The remote work revolution is sweeping the world, and we have more tools than ever before when it comes to staying productive online. However, some things will never change - as social creatures, we still need to form relationships and connect with one another on a human level.

Communication through emails or Slack are directly work related, and leave little room for organic social interactions to take place. Unless managers take proactive measures to engage their team, remote workers can begin feeling alienated from the company, and this environment makes it difficult to build a healthy team culture within the organisation.

Usually an attempt at warming up the remote meeting consists of the usual small talk, (i.e. “How was your weekend?”), which results in the same predictable and superficial conversations over and over again. To avoid these interactions becoming stale, managers understand the importance of using icebreakers to keep things new and interesting.

These moments, as everyone is logging in and catching up with one another, are golden opportunities to connect a little bit deeper. With only a few clicks, a game lobby can be created, and members of your team can catch-up over an interactive group experience.

Our games are designed to facilitate those little magic moments where your team laughs, shares and grows closer. They’re constantly being updated with new content, so managers or team leaders can use it as a one-stop shop for all team building and icebreaker activities.

Brightful is founded by Alvin Hung, a successful serial entrepreneur. Alvin’s other company, Vyond/GoAnimate, is a platform for creating animated videos. Vyond is a great success that has grown from just Alvin in an office to over 100 people located in San Francisco Bay Area, Hong Kong, and Taipei. One of the key reasons to Vyond’s achievement is definitely the people focused culture Alvin created. And this same culture is being created again at Brightful.
