The Comments Report shares the ideas and clarifications that your team felt needed to be said. The statements only appear on this report if the team shared a comment - otherwise the statements don’t appear on this report. Remember that five questions appear at the end of the report that challenged the team to share an idea of what the company should Start, Stop , Do More, Do Less, and One Other Key Idea. In many case, most of the comments will appear there. Keep in mind that the survey did not require people to fill in comments so they are completely optional. Some teams shared many comments, and some teams very few.
If you need help with understanding any of the column, review the definitions on the Summary Report section. The Columns were shown just as a reminder and perhaps to put the comments into some context.
Also, the subtotals on this report do not appear because not all statements appear, and therefore the subtotals would not mean anything.
HOW DO I USE THIS REPORT?
When evaluating this report in particular, take a deep breath and get yourself in a frame of mind that will allow you to listen and learn. If you find yourself getting emotional, stop, take a break, and come back to the report later. Try to find the truth of what your team is saying, and try to decide what you might be able to do to take action to improve things. Read down through the comments and ask yourself or your team:
What comments are we proud of? Usually, some team members will share good feedback about how things work well.
What patterns exist in the comments? Are we hearing the same thing from different people?
What indicate that we need to improve?
What conversations do we need to have with our team? Do we need clarification? Do we need to communicate things better to them so we all understand things better?
