The Importance of Real-Time Employee Feedback in Your Organization

We have had a number of meetings in recent weeks with various companies to explore opportunities for assisting or supporting in technology (LMS/LXP) or content development.

As subject matter experts, we have assisted many businesses in incorporating Real Time Feedback using our platform. Employee Real-Time Feedback has the potential to significantly aid in Learning and Development; here’s how we’re breaking it down.

What is real-time feedback? 

Real-time feedback is a type of performance management system that emphasis continuous improvement over evaluation. Real-time feedback does not replace performance reviews; rather, it supplements them by introducing a continuous communication cycle.

Employees who are learning from the content and training courses have the most relevant and influential feedback on how to improve training programmes in an organisation. However, it is widely acknowledged that obtaining feedback from employees has historically been difficult. This could be mainly because of negligence, or lack of motivation to do so. 

Overcome using email or notification nudges, rewards or points that accumulate for each feedback given, which can be redeemed into vouchers. 

Is Employee Feedback in Real Time Important?

Employee feedback is important for an organization’s success for a variety of reasons. By encouraging real-time feedback from your employees, you exemplify a desire to improve their developmental capabilities and advance their careers. 

Learning and development teams are improving the feedback loop between team members and across different teams throughout the organization.

The Advantages of Using Real-Time Employee Feedback

Employee feedback in real time creates a pattern of behaviour, both struggles and advancements, that proves growth and opportunities based on the individual’s progress. By implementing real-time employee feedback, you can consistently support your teams, demonstrating care and empathy for employees and their well-being. When it comes time for annual reviews, you’ll be able to show employees how much they’ve improved over the course of the year, and because everything was done in real-time when the training was conducted, no one will be astounded by the data obtained.

Real-time feedback allows employees to correct mistakes and modify their behaviour when it matters most.

 

The following are some of the advantages of implementing real-time employee feedback:

  • Enhance employee performance.

    Leaders can address performance in real-time situations, allowing employees to correct course when it matters the most. Performance issues are no longer as surprising during performance appraisals

  • Establish a culture of openness and confidence.

    By implementing a real-time feedback circuit, organisations can foster transparency where employees feel connected to their leaders and where teams can offer candid, frank, and useful feedback to improve the organisation.

  • Encouragement and recognition can boost employee motivation.

    Real-time employee feedback makes it possible for staff members to be acknowledged for their contributions and successes, which in turn strengthens a commitment to strong performance and admirable behaviour.

  • Enhance the accuracy and quality of performance data.

    With consistent employee feedback, remove employee bias and enhance performance data. By giving a clear picture of employee performance over time, including both positive and negative aspects, real-time employee feedback supports fair and reasonable talent decision making.

  • Develop a setting that encourages peer coaching and knowledge sharing.

    Teams have the opportunity to assist one another in growing and expanding their skills thanks to real-time employee feedback. When teams can share in the success, they will collaborate more successfully.

  • Boosting perpetual learning and development.

    Employee feedback received in real time creates improvement opportunities. When it matters most, leaders can recognise outstanding performance and make course corrections thanks to a culture of feedback. This learning format doesn't interfere with their daily activities and fits into the natural process of learning in the flow of work.
