Aladdin On-ground Genies  

A Players - Aladdin Super Genies 

All companies want them -- but the question is, can they handle them?

Top-tier talents require a particular type of work environment. One that enables growth, stimulates creativity and offers a high scope of opportunity. 

To help select the right-pick candidates, part of our hiring process includes the '16personalities' test; A fun and useful resource that provides insights into individual workplace habits, motivators and strengths. 

Unlike traditional workplaces, we thrive off new ideas and welcome creativity with an open mind.

We admire pattern-breaking, through-provoking, risk-taking individuals.

We don’t want someone who will complete their assigned tasks and call it a day. We want high-achievers.

At a rapidly growing startup, time moves fast. Every new day is a unique opportunity, and at Aladdin, we wish to make each day magical.

Add Value

The Dream Team

The team of genies is a family, and as such, provides support for one another. Considering they all live in different parts of the world, the genies find new ways to come together.

Virtual, face-to-face (or screen-to-screen) departmental meetings are held once a week, while the Genie Slack channel is always buzzing.

At the end of the month, the Aladdin family engages in the All Hands On meeting. This is a great way to connect with each other, review progress, and plan for the coming month; but before getting down to business, the meeting starts off with a game! This allows them to share laughs, get comfortable, and learn more about one another. Through a number of team-building practices, they are constantly pushing for unison as a collective unit.

Aladdin culture and team are built on a virtual existence. They won’t rub shoulders in the hallway and do not get to share Friday afternoon socials. They will however make sure that the culture is based on a shared experience and they are always looking for innovative ways to make the team come together.

"It doesn't make sense to hire smart people and tell them what to do; we hire smart people so they can tell us what to do."

-Steve Jobs

Aladdin Academy

All genies are enrolled in the Aladdin Academy. Here the genies learn new skills and training across a multitude of areas. From the latest discovery in AI to mindset training, the genies are learning new things to level up each day.

At Aladdin, we have a set of team-building and learning initiatives in place.

Aladdin Book Club is a place of knowledge, ideas, and discussion. By sharing a new book each month, the genies engage in thought-provoking discussions, learn new things, and gain inspiration. They collectively vote on which book to read and discuss the content as they go. A big part of the culture is innovation, and reading gives us an outlet to brainstorm, come up with new ideas and concepts, and bring those ideas to life. They are more than a group of tech-savvy millennials; they strive for knowledge to become the very best they can.

Aladdin Knowledge Channel was created to equip the team with the latest tech tools available. By achieving an in-depth understanding of the various platforms they utilize for tasks, the genies can perform in full efficiency. The knowledge channel provides training material and video tutorials on a range of topics and systems. Learning the ins and outs of these functional tools effectively boosts the team’s confidence and understanding, leading them to face every task with an optimistic, “can do” mindset. Team leaders further add to the channel with tutorials on approaching different tasks, giving the team clarity in how to do it and what is expected of them. Aladdin team members have the opportunity to enhance their skill set by obtaining various certifications. This incentivizes learning with the opportunity for growth and potential promotions.

Aladdin Fitness Club is another great initiative that brings us together. As a remote team, we spend a large portion of our time working off our digital gadgets. We recognize the significance of health, both mental and physical, in a high-functioning team. The Aladdin Fitness Club increases our motivation, allowing us to share our fitness journeys. We hold fun contests with prizes, showcase our healthy smoothie recipes, and share silly gym selfies. We even have virtual group training sessions, with yoga and karate being favorable among the genies.

Level up

A day that goes by without learning something new is a day wasted.

  

Digital Tool Kit

When you think of a genie, you might picture a giant blue creature popping out of a magic lamp. AladdinB2B genies might not be blue, but they are tech-savvy.

As a remote tech company, we utilize various software to facilitate our day-to-operations. This includes time management tools, project management software, CRMS, and integrations. All genies must be adept in these various tech tools, and the knowledge channel has all the training to become a pro.

The company invests every month in equipping the team with hi-tech tools to streamline our operations and daily tasks. This enables the team to work smart.

Transparency builds trust

A strong corporation is built on trust and respect for the workers - not just a profit machine. We agree that all team members, regardless of position, should be consulted in company goals. Instead of traditional crisis management, we propose a balance of long and short-range planning, informed by data and enriched by regular conversations among colleagues.

We incorporated the objectives and key results (OKR) methodology into our management ideals. It is results-driven yet people-oriented. This system is a principle of management that gives full scope to individual strength and responsibility and at the same time provides a common direction of vision and effort, establishes teamwork, and harmonizes the goals of the individual with the company. The involvement of each team member deciding collectively on a course of action enables us all to follow through and be more engaged in the progress and, ultimately, the outcome.

History and Evolution of the OKR

Objectives and Key Results (OKR) is a management strategy for goal setting within organizations that aims to connect the company, team, and personal goals to measurable results while having all team members and leaders work together in one, unified direction.

Back in the 1950s, Peter Drucker, a professor, journalist, and historian, put forth a new management ideal that was results-driven, yet humanistic. He called it ‘Management by Objectives’. 

A corporation, he wrote, should be a community “built on trust and respect for the workers - not just a profit machine.” 

Further, he urged that subordinates should be consulted in company goals. Instead of traditional crisis management, he proposed a balance of long and short-range planning, informed by data and enriched by regular conversations among colleagues. 

Drucker aimed to map out a principle “of management that will give full scope to individual strength and responsibility and at the same time give common direction of vision and effort, establish teamwork and harmonize the goals of the individual with the commonweal.” 

He discerned a basic truth of human nature: When people help choose a course of action, they are more likely to see it through. In 1954, in his landmark book ‘The Practice of Management’, Drucker codified this principle as “management by objective and self-control.” It became Andy Grove’s foundation and the genesis of what we now call the OKR.

We strongly believe that all team members are linked in a unified mission. They have complete visibility in efforts to attain transparency and alignment. The company, departmental, and individual progress are evaluated at the end of each quarter, and we determine whether we achieved the objectives. This enables us all, from the CEO down, to be on the same page. 

At AladdinB2B, we value every team member as a great asset. Our CEO, Alaa, says that every team member brings unique skill sets to the table that collectively form a powerful engine. Each unique role is pivotal in moving the company forward, and we aim to develop best practices for our future.

After spending 12 years working for a corporate organization and 13 hours of work today… What will be written after that is coming from the heart. Working with Aladdinb2b is the place to be. My favorite part of the job is to meet young, talented, and loyal spirits that want to change the world and transform business interaction in today’s digital age. While our genies are working towards this goal, Aladdinb2b is an outlet for growth and opportunity. Long and hard-working hours can be truly rewarding.

“I was always looking for a place I was comfortable with that fits my thinking and dreams. The most important experience here in Aladdin is that we are all learning, we learn from each other and teach each other. That’s how we grow and succeed together.

Everyone in Aladdin is taking ownership of the work and the responsibility to succeed and to become bigger, this is a place where the company's success and your success are the same. If you have any creative ideas or you have the willingness to participate in building something new, smart, and challenging, Aladdin will be the best fit. My most favorite part is when we have a new requirement that we think is smart and creative and it could be a key factor in the success.”
