In larger companies with more than five hundred employees, it becomes challenging during meetings to immediately understand who is in the room. It is often unclear whether a participant is a product manager, an engineering manager, a quality analyst, a developer or someone from a commercial team. This creates confusion at the start of many meetings, since we sometimes spend time trying to figure out people’s roles rather than focusing on the discussion itself.
Right now the only reliable workaround is to search for each name in Slack, open profiles and check their role. This is slow, disruptive and does not scale in fast paced conversations.
A solution that would allow participants to reveal their role temporarily during a meeting would be incredibly valuable. For example, showing a role next to the participant’s name, toggling between display modes or even enabling a shortcut that momentarily switches all participant labels to show their job title. Any lightweight approach that avoids manual name editing would already be a significant improvement.
This capability would save time, reduce friction in cross functional meetings and provide clearer context for everyone involved. It would be a game changing experience for large organisations.
