At VIOOH, our number one goal is to be a great place to work, where our employees are engaged, thriving and motivated. To achieve this, we as a company live and breathe our values (Integrity, Make it Happen, Be Courageous, Team VIOOH and Customer Centric) in every decision we make and place employee experience at the heart of everything we do. Our culture has enabled us to transform the digital OOH industry and scale across the globe - trading in 22 markets with 180+ VIOOHers. 

In January 2024, we held a week-long experience to focus on engagement, happiness of VIOOHers, drive productivity and share organisational knowledge. The inaugural “VIOOH Week” provided a chance for all VIOOHers to come together in one location to share experiences and deepen our understanding about the company's vision, products and ambitions for the future. It’s really important that in this new era of work we take time to connect, create memories and celebrate our hard work.

We shared:

• A review of 2023, focusing on our highlights, achievements and areas of development
• Organisational knowledge and employee workshops to improve our productivity, drive performance and boost employee engagement
• 21 masterclasses were created by VIOOHers on the most in-demand topics, to drive organisational knowledge and accelerate onboarding with on-demand content
• The launch of VIOOH Product Certification, a new (currently internal) onboarding and learning programme focusing on our evolving VIOOH platform and product suite

During the week we were also joined by 3 guest speakers:

• Greg Searle, GB Olympic Rower and Business Coach, who talked about Teamwork, Persistence and Change
• Sue O’Leary from Thesan Learning, who developed our DEI awareness and knowledge across allyship
• Helen Tiffany from The Coach House, who shared the power of mindset and science behind achieving our goals

Finally, we hosted a dinner party to celebrate our achievements during 2023 and announce the 2023 H2 SuperVIOOHers, the VIOOHers most nominated by their peers for living our values.

We’re continuously committed to driving excellence and supporting each of our VIOOHers through their time here by making it a great place to work, where everyone can fulfil their potential to achieve their goals.
