Cool initiative from Star Alliance – the FaceMap project - launched April 1

The FaceMap project is designed to link employees throughout the alliance, and around the world. For the Alliance, it’s all about “the way the Earth connects”. For us, it’s all about the way we connect with each other.

FaceMap is an interactive website designed to allow employees to upload their photo and personal contact information (if they so wish) onto the website for their fellow employees around the world to see. Eventually, all of the surface land mass of the world will be covered with the faces of employees, showing that it’s people who make up the world. And almost 400,000 of those people work for Star Alliance member airlines. Not only is it a fun tool to use, it’s also a useful networking tool. For instance, a ramp agent in Los Angeles will be able to see and connect with fellow agents in Europe. The conversation between them could be about work, or it could be about the best places to eat or visit.

It’s all about connections. Connecting people with people. It’s global unity through cultural diversity. Creating a community of employees, interacting with each other over the internet. Try it out at: http://facemap.starallianceemployees.com
