Manifesto

A Workstreamer is a particular type of person often characterized with attributes such as ambition and passion. They are the over-achievers; the people who colleagues and clients describe as entrepreneurial, dedicated and driven. Workstreamers are also innovative. They leverage technology to get more done at higher standards than previously thought possible. They recognize the benefits of sociality, collective wisdom and collaboration. Workstreamers are a tribe who embrace the mantra ‘we are better together.’

The Workstreamr product is being developed specifically for our fellow Workstreamers. We believe that deficiencies in the marketplace currently prevent us from being able to work together as effectively as we play together. We are developing a solution and a community.

Workstreamer addresses three gaps in the current marketplace:

  • Work is currently distributed across too many silos and applications
  • The marketplace lacks socialization around work and projects online
  • There is no digital database of project and workflow relationships

In addition to the above, we are further guided by several underlying principles that drive our product design and company persona:

  • Work is inherently social. Exploring the social dimension of work is critical to producing higher quality and/or more innovative work
  • The advent of the Internet and globalization are fundamentally transforming work culture
  • Most work tools fail to create an appropriate social environment for collaboration and knowledge sharing
  • Work should not have to be attacked with a collection of un-integrated tools
  • Individuals should leverage technology to get work done and to remain connected. Once technology has provided value, it should get out of the way
  • People matter more than deadlines
  • Work should find its way to the user, not lie buried across a maze of folders, emails, or applications.
  • Enterprises of all sizes increasingly rely on collaboration across projects and teams, regardless of geographical distribution or physical presence.
  • Properly documented workflows are capable of producing valuable data assets
  • The work/life balance is increasingly fuzzy. With the right tools we can learn to work together as effectively as we play together

At Workstreamer we are on a mission to design a product that allows people to reach their potential.
