Editor's Notes

  • #9 Creating a culture of gratitude was the first step. We communicated gratitude via Rypple, and also printed the “Kudos” and posted it on bulletin boards for everyone to see. Connecting the social activity with the real life activity. Employees felt pride in their accomplishments and could see results from using the tools.Once people started understanding and using Rypple to thank each other and recognize each other in the department, and we could see the comfort level increase, we integrated other forms of feedback.
  • #11 What was really interesting is that much of the feedback we received included comments about what a good job we did about communicating our culture.
  • #12 Talent AcquisitionAsking for feedback from candidates we would interview for positions in the team, about the interview process. Asked employees for feedback about new employees as part of the probationary review process.
