We understand and solve your key issues 

We build products which are designed to solve our customers key challenges. Effective performance management helps you overcome crucial organisational hurdles. 

  • Ineffective annual appraisals

    HR directors, managers and employees are all fed up with annual appraisals and the lack of value they provide. Annual appraisals are time-consuming and often affected by recency bias, which is why 75% of employees feel that they're an unfair reflection of performance.

  • Low employee engagement

    A lack of goal setting and infrequent conversations and feedback are likely to result in a lack of engagement. In fact, employees are 3.2 times less likely to be motivated.

  • Lack of people insights

    Tracking the performance and wellbeing of employees is often complicated, and it's even more difficult to extract this data and gain valuable insights in the age of remote working.

  • Unclear objectives

    Objectives are an integral part of successful performance management, but it can be difficult to set meaningful goals that are aligned with your business strategy

Conversations

With automated conversation functionality, meaningful communication within your business becomes agile.

Advanced Clear Review enhances performance through guided conversations. See how the power of regular meaningful conversations can benefit employees, managers and HR within your organisation.

Employees who have regular performance discussions with their manager are almost three times as likely to be engaged. With guided conversations, you can help teams feel more supported and boost productivity.

    • Employees are in control of their own development as they can set conversations with their manager at the click of a button.
    • Employees can set different conversation types with their manager, e.g. wellbeing or career, ensuring conversations are meaningful.

Managers

Inspiring and motivating teams requires more than annual performance reviews. Regular conversations help managers support employees, set relevant goals and become better leaders.

  • Benefits
    • Managers can uncover blockers within their team to maintain employee productivity.
    • Discussion prompts defined by conversation type support managers to ensure they get the most out of conversations with their team.
    • Conversations are documented and managers can leave notes that can be looked back on.

Highly engaged employees perform better, report greater job satisfaction and are 22% more productive.

  • Benefits

    • Frequent conversations improve productivity and engagement.
    • By focusing on employee engagement, employee turnover is likely to decrease.

Employees

Research shows that 69% of employees would work harder if they felt they would be recognised and appreciated for their work.

    • Employees feel motivated as they are recognised for the work they are doing in real-time.

    • Managers can see all feedback received and given to their team in one place, which helps to inform conversations with employees.
    • Managers can request feedback for members of their team, giving them greater insight into individual performance.

    • As feedback is linked to organisational values, employees are more likely to be aligned to them in their day to day work.

Give your employees control over their development by allowing them to uncover their strengths, weaknesses, and blind spots. Feedback Circles are employee led, not anonymous, don't require a facilitator and can be ran at any time.

Employees

    • Empower employees to lead their own development by uncovering their strengths, weaknesses and blind spots. 
    • Employees know who their feedback is from helping ensure the feedback is feedback is useful. Employees also aren't trying to guess who their feedback is from.

  • Event types
    • Minimal HR admin. Create templates for employees to use and then employees can run their own rounds of Feedback Circles without the need of a facilitator. 
    • Empower employees to drive their own development. Unlike 360 feedback, Feedback Circles shows who the responses are from to ensure feedback is helpful rather than negative, which can often be the case when it is anonymous. 
    • Everything in one place. Ensure goals are set from the feedback received by having goals and feedback in one system.

Engagement

Meaningful conversations, agile goal-setting and regular feedback all contribute to improved employee engagement. Discover how our performance management system can positively impact your people.

Engagement and well-being are key to keeping productivity high, resignations low and attracting new talent, so these should be a top priority for your organisation.

Monitor employee wellbeing and engagement levels with My Mindspace

  • My Mindspace
    • Employees have a confidential space where they can express how they are feeling. Even if an employee doesn’t feel comfortable taking their issues to their manager, they still have a safe space to let their voice be heard.
    • My Mindspace enables HR to look at how specific departments, and the company as a whole, are feeling about their work in real time. This means HR directors receive regular updates on engagement levels for all types of employees.
    • My Mindspace gives people instant feedback on their responses, rather than waiting on survey results to be sent off and analysed. Employees will benefit from timely tips to help them become motivated at work, so they can see a real difference when it matters most.
