2. Ongoing Feedback in Small Improvements
Offering on-the-fly recognition is seamless with Small Improvements. Your team is a click away from sending praise, requesting feedback, and taking important performance notes. Easily build on this ongoing engagement by rolling it into the Review or 360° process.

3. 1:1 Meetings
1:1 Meetings are the best way for a team member and their manager to stay in touch, give and solicit regular feedback and help each other improve.
We built an entire feature dedicated to helping teams have better 1:1 meetings by preparing and by enabling efficient note-taking.

4. Instant Praise
A kind word goes a long way. Instilling a culture of celebration can improve morale, plus re-inspire team members who might need a little boost.
Small Improvements offers kudos badges which can be appended to praise, promoting collectable visual recognition of a job well done. These fully customizable badges can be edited to reinforce core company values and tie praise to purpose.

5. Collaborate on Objectives
Objectives are a core pillar of our platform. Rather than being purely tactical with key results and status, we promote real time conversation on goals.
Notify mentors and peers to kickstart a dialogue, then adjust the goal in real-time. That feedback captured on an objective then seamlessly flows into the structured Review and 360 process your team can engage in.

6. Request Spontaneous Feedback
For those employees who seek to receive feedback when it’s most meaningful are encouraged to use our Request Feedback feature.
Select team members or coworkers whom you’d like to receive feedback from after you wrap up a project or for more general feedback. This can be very useful to ensure that growth is encouraged in the moment when it’s most relevant.

7. Private Notes
Collecting your thoughts before a meeting can make feedback more organized and cohesive.
Just select “take a private note” and you can jot down your key discussion points to reference at a later date.

8. Chat Integrations
Want instantaneous updates of company recognition and praise? Our Slack and HipChat integrations are perfect. Once set up, all staff can subscribe to immediate updates of public praise.
Even better, you can post into Small Improvements directly from Slack – just type “/praise” and select who should get some love.

9. Gmail Integration
Our new Gmail Integration beta feature in Google Chrome allows you to take a note, send praise, or request feedback while viewing your .
With quick and easy installation, you'll be able to start using Small Improvements with Gmail in no time.
