You know how you really feel about your business, but have you ever thought about what your employees really feel about your business? It may be that you haven’t thought about this or don’t think it’s important, but then again, it may be something that you are afraid to ask!
Do you really know how your employees feel about your business? About working there? What does working there feel like to them?
I know some of you are thinking — I don’t really want to know; and that’s very real and understandable. However, everyone needs to think about this because how your employees feel about your business is what they’re going to reflect to your paying customers and to one another. This also creates a culture which is either really positive, collaborative and progressive, or it’s a culture where there is negativity, backbiting and all kinds of other problems that slow down the progress in your business.
You may ask what can be done to help people like you with this challenge? At Confidence Coach, we come in as a third party and do what we call an anonymous survey to find out how your employees feel about your business. We ask them their opinion on how it’s running, how they feel about their managers, and maybe what the systems are. We do this anonymously so that they feel protected and they can be totally honest because they know we won’t reveal their names. We create the survey and use questions in such a way to really find out what and how they’re thinking, and then we’re able to provide that information to you as the owner or CEO of the business. This begins to help you to get a feeling of how your culture is at this point. It will help you know how employees are interacting and how that’s being projected to your customers. This is incredibly valuable information.
We have a lot of success stories of people who have used this tool to help figure out what is going on in their company with their employees. It’s kind of a secret weapon we provide for people. We normally do this on a quarterly basis. This enables you to have ongoing information so you can make good decisions and can understand what’s going on in your culture. We spend a lot of money as business owners and CEOs to figure out who our paying customer is, what they’re about and what’s going on with them, but we miss the opportunity if we are forgetting about our own employees, our “first customers” and what’s happening with them. This is a tool to do that.
If you’re interested, please reach out and contact us. We’d love to demonstrate how this can work for you. Also, if you know somebody else that this would be help, please pass this on. Maybe they have some questions about what’s going on with their employees or want to know how their employees are feeling. If so, forward this article to them and then subscribe to our YouTube channel where I’ve also talked about this.
Make it a great day!
