Management Development 2.0 – A New Life with the Tappin Web App 

Management involves handling complex challenges and making decisions in demanding situations. Leadership involves the ability to influence, inspire and guide people towards achieving common goals in an effective and positive way. There are many qualities and characteristics associated with leadership. Leadership is not just based on a single attribute, but a combination of several skills and abilities.

What challenges do you face by not using an app?

One of the challenges is seamless and effective communication with all participants, both before, during the program and afterwards. Communication and messages to participants can come from different places, such as different people, hotels via text messages and emails, and it is challenging for participants to gather all the information in a good way. The expectations and needs of the participants are a seamless communication flow, the kind that a meeting app or conference app can provide.

It is an expectation to have all information in one place that is available throughout the training period. There is often a need for high flexibility, with a view to sharing documents and tasks from time to time, as well as to communicate easily via SMS with targeted information to all or parts of the participant group. 

"We wouldn't be Tappin's app except for a single event - and I actually don't know if it would have been possible to carry out those events with the setup we have today without Tappin" says Director Global Events at Circle K. Svein Arve Strand "
