Running a book club is a great way for people to get together and share a common interest, and when you apply the concept to a company it not only allows you to learn something new from the book itself, but you also learn about the people within your organization.

Reading is an important tool to improve who we are, what we do, and the value we deliver in our jobs, and this is how the idea for a Rocket.Chat Book Club was born. Besides, having Share as one of our DOTS, it makes more than sense to also share some learnings, insights and well... some books!
Reading is an important means to improve who we are, what we do, and the value we deliver in our careers, and this is the idea behind Rocket.Chat's Book Club. Besides, _sharing_ is one of our DOTS, it makes more than sense to also transmit some learnings, insights and well... some books!

Here's how it's going to work:
**Here's How It Works:**

1. Each area will create a Reading Challenge with a list of books to read throughout 2021.
2. Through the year the team will mark the books in progress and completed and they can exchange ideas about it.
3. At the end of the year, everyone who scores at least 10 point in the scoreboard will receive an Amazon voucher as a prize depending on how many point you scored in total!
4. Added to this, Gabriel will periodically have a CEO Pick of book, which can be added to the areas' Reading Challenges. There will be a round table with a set date conducted by him with all who read it!
1. Throughout the year, the team will track the books in progress and completed, exchanging ideas about them.
2. At the end of the year, we will count points on each one's scoreboard! 

Now let's talk points and rules!
**Let's Talk Points and Rules!**

* CEO Pick - 3 points
* Books related to the area's activities, business & non-fiction - 2 points
* Other books like fiction and fantasy - 1 point
* CEO Pick: 3 points
* Books related to the area's activities, business, and non-fiction: 2 points
* Other books (like fiction and fantasy): 1 point

And as explained before the prizes will be distributed according to how many points you score in the following way:
Prizes will be distributed according to how many points you score. Participants who accumulate higher points will be eligible for larger or more valuable prizes.

* 11 to 30 points - 150 stars in the [AllStars program](https://handbook.rocket.chat/company/our-culture/rocket.chat-allstars)

**Suggestions to have an awesome book club routine in your team:**
**How To Establish A Reading Routine:**

* Set due dates for everyone to read the same book and have a discussion about it
* Create a channel on open to share with your team what you have been reading, recommendations and evaluations of the books you read
* Create a weekly challenge in the team of number of read pages
* Set due dates by the end of each month for everyone to read the same book and schedule a discussion about it in the following week.

When you first joined you answered a form asking you if you already had a Santander account because you will need an account in that bank to receive the monthly payment. If you don't have one, you can try opening one online at [this link](https://abrasuaconta.santander.com.br/?ic=home-cardsprod-abrasuaconta). You should choose the "Conta Confia" category, for which you won't pay an annuity.

After creating the account you can request for **portability** to the account and bank you use today, meaning any money that gets to your salary account immediately goes to the one you choose.

The payment gets to you on the last day of each month. It's important to point out that we don't do an advance of the salary in the middle of the month (e.g. paying on the 15th and in the 30th).
