Fear.
Fatigue.
Are you stuck in a rut that is littered with surveys? It's often the go-to channel for getting to know what employees think, but there also barriers that can get in the way of these being effective.
Fatigue is just one of them.
Fear is another. The brave face doesn't simply disappear when presented with written questions to provide our opinions.
And that can be a BIG problem, especially for men. November is Men's Mental Health Awareness Month, and that prompted Kieran Innes of Stribe and I to have this conversation.
We talk about the barriers to feedback approaches. And Kieran shares a number of different methods that provide the opportunity to capture everyone's voice.
Unless we use a range of ways to hear what people have to say, we fail to demonstrate the importance of people being heard. That intention simply becomes empty words.
Are you really finding the best ways to put the feedback experience where your mouth is?
More about Kieran:Kieran Innes is the Founder and CEO of Stribe and Tootoot, two platforms dedicated to empowering voices in workplaces and schools. Stribe has transformed employee engagement with accessible anonymous surveys, while Tootoot gives thousands of children a safe anonymous way to report bullying and other worries directly to their schools.

I love Tammy's phrase about wellbeing running through the veins of an organisation. When you achieve that, you are equipped to deal with any conversation that arises. And all because you start by putting people first.
That means being vulnerable and stepping into their space to learn about what...
