It is deliberately anonymous so employees can answer honestly – the ideal basis for developing your managers.

Frequently asked questions

Is the feedback really anonymous?
Yes. No personal data is collected. Only analyse results in sufficiently large teams to preserve anonymity.
How should the manager handle the results?
It is most effective to discuss the results openly with the team, thank them for the feedback and jointly derive one or two concrete improvements.
