[Kingston, Canada] — TeamWP, a pioneer in employee engagement within the WordPress ecosystem, is proud to announce its strategic rebranding as Future of Team. This significant transformation comes with the introduction of Remkus de Vries as Co-Founder and an expansion of services aimed at fostering open, people-first workplaces.
Just a year after its inception, TeamWP has evolved from its initial project, the Team Experience Index, which became a cornerstone for businesses to benchmark team culture. The insights garnered were shared at WCEU in Athens, marking a milestone in data-driven HR practices within the WordPress community.
“TeamWP has been on an eventful journey toward meaningful impact,” said James Giroux, Founder of TeamWP and Future of Team. “The addition of Remkus de Vries as co-founder enriches our vision with deep HR expertise and a shared commitment to revolutionizing workplace culture.”
Remkus de Vries, with 30 years of experience in HR and people operations, brings a wealth of knowledge that complements the innovative approaches of Future of Team. “Joining Future of Team felt right; our shared vision and the potential for impact were aligned perfectly,” said de Vries.
Future of Team will focus on three main areas: Recruitment, Experience, and Growth. These pillars are designed to support WordPress companies in developing their people operations to attract talent and enhance their industry standing.
The launch is also accompanied by a new podcast that delves into leadership and culture within the WordPress ecosystem, co-hosted by Dee Teal, a leader in remote people management and a founding member of the WP Includes mentorship program for women in WordPress.
“We are just getting started,” James Giroux added. “With a new name, a strengthened leadership team, and a suite of new services, we are poised to make significant strides in making the WordPress ecosystem a beacon for exceptional workplace culture.”
