Introduction and Purpose

Thank you for using the Leap Communications Platform (“Leap“)!  As we continue to grow and our employees are more spread out, the need for a single communication platform has become more apparent. In order to deliver heroic service, our employees need one place to go to find information, links to other software systems and more.  Leap is an all-in-one platform for employee communication, engagement & teamwork, which is designed to keep people connected in industries like ours where non-desk workers are the majority.  Leap creates an online space, whether via your web browser or a mobile app, to communicate and collaborate in a unified digital workplace.

Leap will be available both as a website (that you will see on your PC) and as a mobile app for Android and iPhones (that will allow access to the site from anywhere) allowing us to connect with ALL of our employees.
