#45 RISING TEAM

SOFTWARE

Company Overview

Rising Team is the industry-leading team development platform. Its software equips managers to lead deeply connecting, fun, and interactive team development sessions, remotely or in-person, without an outside facilitator. By using the Rising Team platform, managers learn the skills needed for effective leadership and consistently practice those skills with their teams, helping them feel supported and valued.

Leading companies and organizations, including Google, Bank of Hawaii, Intuit, Farmers Insurance, Spencer Stuart, Achieve, The San Diego Food Bank, and many more, use Rising Team to develop stronger managers and more resilient teams. More than 90% of managers and team members who participate in Rising Team sessions report that they feel more connected, learn something valuable, and will work more effectively together as a team. And companies see a lift in more than 85% of key engagement scores after just three Rising Team sessions.

“We envision a world where everyone in the workplace feels deeply understood, supported, and empowered to reach their goals. Our mission is to equip all managers to lead more engaged, connected, and successful teams.”
“We foster community through various initiatives, such as themed bi-weekly company all-hands, team-bonding events, daily personal shares on our “Magic Hat” slack channel, cross-functional study groups where people from different departments can engage on topics outside of their realm of expertise, book clubs, and in-person off-sites. We also are committed to monthly sessions of our own Rising Team software for team development, which promotes engagement and connection among teams.”
“We provide a 100% flexible work environment and really encourage our employees to do whatever they need to take care of their personal wellness and health. In addition to unlimited vacation, which we do encourage people to take regularly, we offer everyone one day of “VTO” (Volunteer Time Off) to take at least one day a year to volunteer in organizations that support causes they care about, and then present back to the team. We offer home office stipends to allow people to make their home office especially comfortable for them, and once a year, our founder, Jennifer Dulski, sends a personalized gift to each employee (e.g. track suits with their names on the back).”
