Put a face to every name: Build a smart, engaging, and useful employee directory
In today’s hybrid, fast-paced workplaces, it’s time to rethink the employee directory.
No more static lists. A modern directory is an engagement booster, a collaboration accelerator, and a key driver of internal communication.
But where do you start? What structure works best? How do you make it stick?
We’ve got you covered.
Download our step-by-step Employee Directory Checklist to simplify the process and build a directory that actually works.
What’s inside the checklist:
- Ask the right questions up front: Should it be a grid, an org chart, illustrated, or custom?
- Structure it smartly: Decide what info to include and how to organize it—by team, geography, alphabetically…
- Pick the right tool: Excel, Canva, or better yet… Jint
- Deploy it with purpose: Who owns it? Where should it live? How will it be maintained?
- Make it part of the culture: Promote it, train your people, and keep it alive
Why it matters
A well-designed employee directory means:
- Less time wasted figuring out “who does what”
- Faster collaboration across teams and locations
- A stronger sense of belonging and visibility
