Results: Alignment, productivity and better meetings! 🎉
We asked Travis, “Did you notice a difference after the team training?.” Here’s what he told us:
More adoption for sure, which just makes the whole experience better. It’s not great if you’re the only person on your team using Fellow. It makes it exponentially more useful if everyone is working together on the same platform. Tracking action items from our daily sync call has improved a lot.

Additionally, Travis explained how Fellow had improved his team meetings:
I really do find that Fellow has added tons of value to our daily sync calls because it makes sure that they’re productive and that we accomplish what we want to accomplish. Otherwise, it can quickly become a “How’s everybody doing?” type of meeting. Fellow gives you that structure to follow with templates, making it easy to run through each section of the agenda.

Travis is right – Fellow integrates with tons of your favourite tools so you don’t have to switch between apps throughout the day. His favourite Fellow integration is with Outlook and Teams because Fellow connects directly to his Microsoft calendar, Teams chat and calls.
The thing that I loved at first was just the integration with Outlook. The fact that all your meetings from your calendar just are automatically there in Fellow is great. It’s also really helpful that I can open up Fellow in a Teams meeting, and all the agenda items are there.

Travis also mentioned that he loves Fellow’s feedback feature – the reason why the tool was introduced at PWL. According to Travis, the simplicity of giving feedback in Fellow, whether it’s about a meeting or a colleague, makes giving and receiving feedback a part of the organization’s culture.
The feedback feature is really cool. We like to use it for meetings to check the pulse and see how everyone feels about the structure. With feedback in Fellow, you can also give anyone feedback at any time, whether it’s your colleague, direct report or manager. Feedback has become really organic and part of our routines.

Apart from asking for feedback about meetings and projects, PWL also uses Fellow for their quarterly feedback cycles:
We have quarterly performance reviews about things that are going well and areas for improvement, so the fact that you have a record of everything that was discussed each meeting allows you to understand what you said you wanted to accomplish or improve on, and you can check in on that.

PWL has leveraged Fellow to build their culture of feedback and efficient meetings. The best part, according to Travis, is that Fellow has reduced the number of tools used by managers – while creating a centralized place for decisions and one-on-one exchanges.

Fellow is interactive. Notes from previous meetings carry forward; action items keep you accountable. I really like being in a meeting with a colleague and jotting down action items in real-time, so I don’t forget what I need to do.
