Making company culture data-driven

Posted by zeal-technology on Wednesday February 22, 2017 @11:41AM
from the self-post dept.

At http://zeal.technology we monitor our company culture everyday through pretty unconventional means. We use an AI to pickup on how we are doing from a day to day basis and transparently track and display peaks and valleys in our overall morale. It has allowed us to solve morale problems and boost productivity. It also allows us to really shape the company culture in everyone's image instead of just one person's which is far too common in my opinion.

I am curious as to how your company tracks and addresses culture needs.

Here is the link to the bot we created and use on a daily basis. http://zeal.technology/

Is the only way that zeal knows things through interacting with the chatbot? If I felt that upper management would know what I was saying to the bot I'd not exactly speak frankly, you know what I mean?

Presumably the bot is your company's product, not just something you use internally?

Yes it is also our product. We use it internally every day as well.

Well, dogfooding is always a good idea.

Unless you literally sell dog food.

If it is literal dog food, you feed it to your dog.

It's a good idea. Does it work with email? It should work with email. Even if all it did was a continuous version of the 360 review, or a smarter company survey, I'd use it, if it worked with email.

Keeping pulse over 1000 people is difficult, but it isn't "culture" so much that I'd care for. It's morale, focus and approval.
