"The more you know, the more you think you don’t. The more you don’t know, the more you think you do." - inspired by Aristotle and Albert Einstein 

As a leader you need feedback from your team to succeed.

Collecting employee feedback regularly and frequently through employee surveys is an essential part of assessing internal communication strategies, operational efficiencies, and improving workplace culture.

Companies are now turning to employee surveys to gain organizational insights they can take immediate action on. Best of all, there are now ways to collect the feedback you need to make concrete improvements in real-time.

How employees and employers value one another is a key indicator of business success.

A strong relationship drives the very best behaviors and delivers better returns.

Miscommunication is expensive. Due to high levels of linguistic and cultural diversity within the non-desk workforce, it is crucial that the digital platform you adopt can effectively accommodate many different types of communicators.

Organizations have to cultivate an environment for inclusivity, engagement, and diversity if they want to increase productivity as well as retain more talents.

As mobile workforce demographics reflect more diversity, companies need to implement internal communication strategies that include every single worker. 

I hope you catch my idea.

Let me ask you a few questions to reflect upon. 

What is one of the last competitive edges any business could sharpen?

Your product?

Anyone can copy your product in shorter and shorter periods of time.

Life is work.

Work is life.

Life is all about relationships - and work is no exception.

In fact, the key to long-term happiness and fulfillment is “our relationships.”

This is what Harvard's legendary Grant and Glueck Study found out over the last 80 years:

"The quality of our work-life - emotionally, physically, and mentally - is directly proportional to the quality of our relationships."

The key to any successful business is communication. After all, communication is essential in every aspect of company operations, from onboarding new employees to introducing new policies. When employees are well-informed, they perform better, are more productive, and feel happier in their workplace.

Here are 12 reasons why you’ll achieve greater success by prioritizing effective communication and using a great employee app.

In life, we overwhelmingly add. We like to do ‘more’ rather than ‘less’.

It doesn’t have to be that way.

The other option is to subtract (often overlooked).

There are rewards in less.

Getting to less doesn't mean we're doing less; rather, it's quite the opposite. We do much more thinking when we consider outcomes that involve subtraction because it forces us to think more than we did before when we defaulted to addition-solutions only.

One way to subtract is to stop doing certain things.

In leadership improvement is not about doing more things right, but about doing fewer things wrong.

Don't just look for things to add.

Look for things to eliminate.

Here are 10 things you might want to stop doing to progress employee engagement among your team members:

Isn't the overall goal of Internal Communication to turn strategy into action?

Whenever I ask organizations how they communicate with and get their message across to their entire workforce - including their non-desk workforce that performs their work on-the-go - I often hear, “Oh, internal communication with our mobile workforce? We have it covered. Everyone is on WhatsApp.”

This makes me very concerned and uneasy. 

Have you ever asked yourself the question, "What could be so wrong with using a consumer tool for internal corporate communications?"

I don’t know about you, but I am starting to get a bit tired of those endless discussions about “The Future of Work”.

Much of that debate centers around technology and WHERE we perform our work.

But the future of work is actually about people.

When we talk about it, we talk about humans — how we work, with whom we work, and yes - also where we work.

The Future Of Work is human and must be humane.

It is more about people than location!

Now is the time to take a fresh look at the employer/employee relationship and the fitting tool to strengthen that relationship.
