Wambi Check-ins are an integrated extension that will provide insights to help gauge your team’s sentiment and engagement. Comprised of short question statements that your team will see at regular intervals on their newsfeed, the goal of implementing Check-ins is to provide your teams with the ability to easily communicate their sentiments about their work experience and engagement on a continual basis. See below for our recommended library of question statements by topic.
Check-in basics
Ready to get started? Follow the 1-2-3 of Wambi Check-ins and ensure that your Check-ins:
- Track the same question(s) or question statement(s) over time to allow for ongoing analysis
- Are short, relevant, and easy to complete
- Recur regularly for at least a year (we recommend a quarterly recurrence)
How to structure your Check-in question statements
You can determine if you want to present your team with question statements that track certain outcomes over time, which are not actionable, or if you want to ask question statements that will drive actions to improve outcomes. Typically, a 1:2 ratio of outcome question statements (O) to driver question statements (D) helps build trust with teams - the driver question statements with actionable outcomes (and subsequent actions taken by leaders) lead to an increase in the responses to the outcomes question statements.
Check-in topic library
Here are our Check-in topic suggestions, structured using the outcome:driver ratio we recommend. Interested in a different topic? Connect with your Client Relationship Director to discuss your goals further!
