Sofokus
Back to Hall of Fame
Better Monday® is an organism management
system that supports businesses in adapting to the
New Normal era while maximising happiness and
wellbeing. Innovation requires living, flexible, and
radically transparent organisms instead of artificial,
stiff and hierarchical organisations. That’s why
instead of managers and executive boards, Sofokus
trusts in flock intelligence and a monthly open
meeting where anyone can represent their team or
an area of expertise, depending on the questions
addressed. These solutions increase transparency
and harness all available brainpower in the organism.
Better Monday® is also about valuing people higher
than figures. Since trying to force innovation is
doomed to fail, the company has created the
best possible environment for nurturing it instead.
Remote working, comprehensive occupational health
services, sports, culture and massage benefits, and
free workout classes have been self-evident for
over a decade. That’s why the company raises its
happiness bar every year.
In 2021, Sofokus began supporting the resilience of
its people with online mental health coaching and
granted everyone an additional, fully paid one-week
vacation to reduce the pandemic fatigue. To ensure
the company maintains its pioneering position with
Better Monday®, Sofokus’s Chief Happiness Officer,
Milla Heikkilä, is dedicated to guiding her team
towards their happiness goals.
Highlights
- Rethinking the Strategy: Focus on innovation, digital transformation, and communication to engage with the community.
- Better Monday® leads to measurable results: The company’s last measured Quality of Work Life Index among the staff was 84.9% which is top class even after the wearing past 1.5 years amidst the pandemic. The company has also witnessed how a happy organism clearly goes hand in hand with a booming business: the last time when measured, its Employee Net Promoter Score (how likely employees would recommend their workplace to others from -100 to 100) was 59, and NPS (how likely clients would recommend a service provider to others) was 79. These figures are both top classes, as an average ENPS in the IT field is 26, and a client NPS over 30 is considered good.
- Better Monday® is not only for Sofokus: The company is convinced that the principles of Better Monday® are applicable in every organisation one way or another. That’s why it is constantly seeking new ways to raise awareness and discussion around work-life and happiness. One channel for sharing the company’s views in the international Better Monday® podcast that aims to help leaders, entrepreneurs, and other growth-minded people to get to full speed with a 365-degree view of happiness, work-life balance, and organisational responsibility.
- Better Monday is built together as a team: Better Monday® is that it’s not something the company’s executives came up with behind closed doors but it was born and raised by the entire Sofokus family according to the values that was discovered together. Sofokus thus strongly encourages other organisations to involve every team and staff member in the process of exploring what Better Monday® could look like in their workplace.
