The Relationship Engine for Programmes
Your programme brings the people together. Kindred makes the relationship formation deliberate.
For graduate cohorts, leadership programmes, cross-functional initiatives and communities of practice, Kindred helps participants form new relationships, then measures whether contact, meetings or help continue after the guided journey.
Built for defined programmes
- Graduate cohorts
- Leadership programmes
- Cross-functional initiatives
- Communities of practice
The value gap
You created the cohort for a reason.
The relationships it depends on should not be left entirely to chance. Kindred is not a workplace social network or a general friendship tool. It is for defined programmes where knowing new people is part of the intended value.
Graduate cohorts
New joiners who will work across the organisation for years.
Leadership programmes
Peers meant to rely on one another long after the programme.
Cross-functional initiatives
People from different teams who need to know who to ask.
Communities of practice
Specialists spread across sites or functions.
Integration cohorts
Where two groups are being brought together, with care and clear consent.
The programme journey
From cohort to participant-led contact.
- 01
Programme starts
A defined cohort with a reason to know one another.
- 02
Circles form
Across teams, with organisation-set constraints such as keeping reporting lines apart.
- 03
Reciprocal help
Activities centre on questions, expertise and returning favours.
- 04
Participant-led contact
People reach out without a prompt. Guidance tapers.
- 05
Handoff and follow-up
Kindred steps away, then asks at 7, 30 and 90 days.
The question you can answer
Did the relationships the programme depended on continue?
- “Did participants continue to contact, meet or help one another?”
- “Did the relationships continue without prompting?”
Employers see aggregates only
Reach, reported help, continued contact and persistence across the cohort. Never individual rankings, inferred relationships or who talks to whom.
What we do not claim
Kindred does not claim to increase productivity, performance, engagement scores or retention. It measures whether new relationships formed and continued.Pilot with one programme
Start with one cohort you are already running.
No rip-and-replace. No new community to maintain. One defined population, one measurable relationship journey.
Your team receives an aggregate relationship outcome report at 7, 30 and 90 days after handoff.
