About Names & Faces
What happens between people matters. We’re on a mission to help you be better with yours. Not having the right information about the people around you is a meaningful stumbling block to connection and belonging – which is why we built Names & Faces. Our fast, visual directories put information about your organisation’s people at your fingertips so you can learn who’s who, get context, find people you know (and those you don’t) and get in touch with one tap on the channels you use everyday. Benefits: - Be better with your people - Browse and learn the names and faces of everyone in your organisation - Make it easy to get in touch on the right channels - Remove invisible (and actual) barriers to collaboration - Democratise the bigger picture of your organisation - Unlock hidden potential - Reduce unconscious bias
