Asset Your Feedback

It is often seen that what is working at an organizational level might reflect badly at an internal level or contrariwise. Feedback is a culture that can voice employees’ needs and promote organizational-level development.

The value of positive employee feedback is unmatchable. It scrutinizes the correct practice, and it is directly linked to increased employee engagement and productivity. Negative employee feedback is equally important. It built the foundation of constructive progress and made employees understand their strengths and weaknesses. If feedback is used prudently it can have a significant impact on behaviors, skills, and ultimately careers

What does it translate to?
What is going wrong?

It helps the organization to connect the dots and addresses most of the concerns going around like

  • How are they measuring success?
  • How are their employees accepting the organizational change?
  • How can their core values balance between the employees’ feedback and market requirements?
  • if they are getting the most out of the business or making the most of market opportunities?
  • Is their business moving in a direction different from the one you had planned?
  • The business may be becoming unwieldy or unresponsive to market demands.

 It is noted that feedback is required to put new ideas into action. Regularly reviewing how the strategies are working and allowing for any teething problems or necessary adjustments is important too. Today’s business environment is exceptionally controversial, and it is likely that any plan or progress needs periodic reviews, updates, and implementation to your business plan in order to maintain business success.

Solutions to problems

Feedback can be an elixir for any problem. Organizations may lack certain abilities they need to acquire or learn from competitors. For instance, if you’re in sales, how can you possibly close deals if you don’t learn the competency of “mirroring and matching” the prospect? If you’re a teacher, how can you improve if you don’t learn and practice the steps in the latest team-teaching technique or “flipped classroom” format? The thought is that you can’t—and that you need feedback to develop the skills you’re missing. The method of feedback from peers, reporting staff, co-workers, and managers can be a definite improvement over feedback from just a single individual.

What can be done to collect the feedback?
Survey/ Questionnaire

A carefully designed and conducted employee survey can reveal a great deal of information about employee perceptions that management can use to improve the workplace. Engaged employees are proven to perform better and deliver better results, so you want to measure their current engagement levels and gather employee input on what would help boost engagement at your organization. A meticulously designed feedback should include questions addressing every minute detail about the employee and the company such as overall honest opinion about the organization, Career intriguing questions, concerns, Salary expectation as per market standard, and some questions on the humanitarian ground or maybe regionally specific. Organization responsiveness to employee feedback leads to higher retention rates, lower absenteeism, improved productivity, better customer service, and higher employee morale. The simple fact that the organization is conducting a survey can send a positive message to employees that their opinions are valued. In addition, managers can gain insights into issues affecting their departments or business units that allow them to manage more effectively.

Screening quality feedback

It is important to set some organizational guidelines before releasing your surveys. There should be a small group of diverse managers from a variety of departments to extract the most productive ideas from the heap of feedback. This team-oriented approach will help ensure you’re maximizing the impact of the survey results. Using solutions with comprehensive reports and specific tools will help HR and leadership quickly summarize the areas of discrepancies in the results. There will always be some issues to be fixed, no matter how engaged your overall workforce might be. Ultimately, however, the ability to drill down and look for underlying problems within specific employee segments will continually drive greater engagement, performance, and productivity

 Result

A well-structured way to channel the feedback can show remarkable progress in just a few spans of time. Feedback no matter how pleasing or catastrophic it is always breaks the bubble of assumptions and brings an organic output. This will create transparency among the employee and the organization that their feedback is accepted and worked on.
