A concept adopted by startups, the weekly summary, is becoming more and more popular. Are you familiar with this process? Why is it so beneficial for your internal communication? We are explaining that to you now!
What is the weekly recap?
Also called ”Recap Hebdo“, it's a summary of your actions carried out during the week as well as your future actions. So it's a mix between what you've done and what you're going to do. You are free to do it on any type of format possible whether on PowerPoint, by email or even on video as we do.
However, we recommend that you use this last point as it contributes to your corporate video culture, As we have seen in our article previously. Remember that you don't have to be called Alain Delon to be comfortable in front of the camera.
Keep an eye on your team
Perhaps you have already, as CEO or president, of not having time to follow your teams. Your agenda is bursting at the seams and you are not aware of their plans. Well, all of that is now over. With the weekly video summaries, your departments will be ready for this new game and all you have to do is watch their respective movies.
In addition, as we have stated in an article, on the one hand, they allow a better understanding of the messages than in writing, but also saving time. Add to this that you will not be the only one watching their videos, but all of your teams as well. These can then be requested directly through your audiovisual creations. All these points contribute to improving your internal communication, refining relationships between colleagues.

Create links between departments
It is common to see in businesses a lack of communication between employees. It is to address this problem that weekly summaries should be used. Above all, it is a team effort, combining mutual aid and acting. You will also be surprised at the result because they will lead to discussion. Your teams will be able to share their shooting tips, and why not, make a video bringing together several departments.
Add to this that there is not only the aspect of sharing, there is above all the recreational aspect. Making a video is a good way to let off steam or share an emotion. For this, hundreds of ideas are possible: whether you feel like a poet by making a summary only in Rîmes, or by placing quotes from well-known movies, you are free to propose your ideas. Finally, do not hesitate to add your bloopers, or short making of at the end of the videos to share behind the scenes of the shooting!
How do we use it?
As a reminder, all our videos are made on smartphones using our application. So we created a custom storyboard for each department. In less than thirty minutes, any team can shoot, edit, and broadcast a video automatically on our sharing platform. All that's left to do is get some popcorn and watch the videos of the other teams.
Now that you know this concept, you know what you have to do: get out your smartphones and get rid of them!
