HI! We need a logo for an innovative people-sharing initiative called "Micro-missions".
Background: We are an Innovation Hub working within Natural Resources Canada, a department of the federal government of Canada with 4,000 staff across the country. Our platform, (built with a series of javascript-enhanced google forms), allows anyone in the department (usually managers) to post a description of a short-term task they need help with. Employees can then apply to the task through the fully-automated system.
Objective: The idea is to promote hands-on learning and talent development opportunities while also moving the department more towards a “sharing economy” model of how we use our human resources.
Design: We are interested in a broad range of possible designs - from a professional-looking logo to a logo that is somewhat playful (without appearing too childish) and maybe even incorporates a particular theme - such as a “space theme” (just to give an example). We would also need access to the source file in the event of future modifications on our end.
Possible future work: While we are only looking for one central logo at this time (that has the words "Micro-missions" with or without caps and/or hyphen) we would be very interested in working with the winning logo designer to develop a series of complementary images and characters that represent various aspects of the Micro-missions experience – e.g. "Mission Control" (the team that organizes the projects), "Mission Manager" (those who post tasks) and "Micro Employee" (those who go on Micro Missions).
Target Market(s)
Government employees (range from middle-aged managers to relatively young public servants (e.g. aged 20-40) to students.
