How do I edit teams?

Teams are set up to support cohesion goals. It's important to know your options for managing your teams and users, whether for simple day-to-day adjustments or a broader reorganization of the tree structure.

Edit a team or move a user

Here are the most common actions, directly available from your admin space:

  • From the left-hand menu, go to the Teams field

    1. Click the three dots to the right of the row for the team you want to rename.
    2. Click Edit
    3. Enter the new name in the Team name field
  • From the left-hand menu, go to the Teams field

    1. Click the three dots to the right of the row for the team you want to delete.
    2. Click Delete.
    3. Enter the team name to confirm the deletion.

    ⚠️ When you delete a team, users will need to choose a new team the next time they log in.

  • Two possible methods from the Users field in the left-hand menu:

    Method 1

    1. Select the relevant user.
    2. Click the three dots, then click Change team
    3. Enter the name of the new team.

    Method 2

    1. Check the box to the left of the user's name to select them.
    2. Click the Change team button that appears at the top of the list.
    3. Enter the name of the new team.
  • You can name one or several ambassadors at the same time:
    1. From the Users field, check the box to the left of the relevant user's name.
    2. Click Add to ambassadors, which appears at the top of the list, next to Change team.
  • To remove a user from your United Heroes environment:
    1. From the Users field, click the three dots for the relevant user.
    2. Click Unenroll
    3. Confirm by clicking Confirm

The structure of your teams

The structure always follows the same pattern: Your company name > Level 1 > Level 2 > Level 3

💡 You don't need to use all 3 organization levels  — you can use the following pattern instead if you prefer  :Your company name > Level 1.

Example 1:

  • Your company name
    • Divisions
      • Departments
        • Teams

Example 2:

3-level structure within your company

alt Europe/Asia France/Germany/China/Japan Paris/Berlin/Beijing/Tokyo"

Navigate and take action from the Teams menu

When viewing the teams in your environment, use the search bar to find a team by name. The team tree structure is displayed by clicking through the different levels using the arrows Capture_d_e_cran_2022-08-03_a__15.04.28.png and Capture_d_e_cran_2022-08-03_a__15.04.55.png.

As for the actions you can perform from this section, here they are 👇

The actions available from the menu that appears when clicking the three dots depend on the selected level:

  •  

    • Create one or more teams > adds a team at level 1

    Three-dot menu - Level 0

  •  

    • Create one or more teams > adds a team at level 2
    • Edit > lets you change this level's name
    • Delete > ⚠️ also deletes all levels included within it

    Three-dot menu - Level 1

  •  

    • Create one or more teams — adds a team at level 3
    • Edit > lets you change this level's name
    • Delete > ⚠️ also deletes all levels included within it

    Three-dot menu - Level 2

Changing your team structure

You may need to reorganize your teams more broadly, for example in the case of: 

  • Uneven distribution of employees 

  • Internal reorganization of your departments (new organization/merger…)

It's therefore always possible to change your team structure: simply contact our team, to whom you'll share your new teams in an Excel file (or other spreadsheet format).

☝️ A quick reminder of the impact these changes can have: 

  • Points accumulated in your old team will not be transferred to the new team.

  • Possible loss of users on the app, and therefore of engagement.

  • Note that it is not possible to change a team's level (moving from level 1 to 2, etc.) The structure must be recreated entirely.

⚠️ It will be important to plan for substantial internal communication in order to:

  • Keep your employees informed about this new team reorganization on the app; 

  • Guide them through re-enrollment / reconnection if there's an issue (company code to share again; which team to join…) or redirect them to our user support.

💡 Reminder: You can define up to 3 team levels.
