Trip Advisor Increased Goal Achievement by 25%

👥Team: 35 | Dones: 6,745

Introduction

Luc Levesque is the VP at TripAdvisor, leading the company's global SEO efforts and TravelPod business unit. His team is distributed across multiple offices, making communication and alignment challenging.

Challenge

With a distributed team, Luc struggled to keep everyone aligned and updated on key activities. The common "what are you working on?" check-ins were disruptive and ineffective. Luc needed a better way to facilitate transparency and alignment across his dispersed team.

Solution

Luc implemented iDoneThis to have team members share daily updates on key activities. This allowed him to get visibility into what everyone was working on without disruptive check-ins.

He also instituted structured monthly reviews tied to goals, incorporating achievements captured in iDoneThis updates. This regular cadence was far more effective than standard annual reviews.

Results
  • Reduced need for disruptive check-ins by over 50%, improving team productivity

  • Increased goal achievement by 25% through improved alignment

  • Cut time spent on annual reviews by over 75% by leveraging monthly reviews

  • Luc's team has received the highest ratings within Expedia and TripAdvisor

Conclusion

Using iDoneThis for daily updates and monthly reviews allowed Luc to improve alignment, productivity, and performance across his distributed team. The solution cut time spent in disruptive check-ins and ineffective annual reviews while increasing transparency and team achievement.
