Thanks for replying. How would you do it in a remote-first world? A zoom talk ? How does this go beyond that one talk - would you incorporate aspects of this into official rewards/recognition ? Or is gratification good enough. Getting a zoom audience is gonna be hard. |

We're not using zoom, but google meet - but yes, these happen completely online now.
I find that people that are doing interesting stuff often _want_ to talk about it. However, a big part of Shopify culture is "do things, tell people" - it is definitely encouraged to spend time spreading context.
It's not directly part of any rewards framework, but one metric that goes into promotions is the area of impact. By giving a talk to the guild, you can have impact on a group that's larger than your team, potentially the whole organization. It counts.
But another reward is the positive feedback, interesting discussions and new connections that you make through this.
