Empowering people to speak with the help of humour and appropriate anonymous feedback options
Psychological Safety Features
Humour at Workplace
In order to assist with "the belief that you won’t be punished or humiliated for speaking up with ideas, questions, concerns, or mistakes", Neelix has Giphy integrated as part of the reflection.
People associate team journal entries with a measure of "impact" (positive or negative gradients) and context of themes. Therefore, there may be no need to write extensive commentary (if any) because a picture can be worth a thousand words.
The necessary lubricant to for building a culture of smart transparency.
Anonymous Feedback Options
In order to stay safe, a person can overwrite the nickname associated with the post with humour assisted tag - e.g. instead of post being visible as "created by Bob", it could be displayed as "created by a Well Wisher".
Peers Groups and Team Activist Reflections
It is unnecessary to expect that absolutely everyone will be providing feedback all the time. While this is a good ambitious goal, the reality is that people create their own circles. One person submitting feedback on behalf of a particular group achieves the primary goal of providing measurable and contextual data. This approach takes the pressure off and helps people work together on reflective thinking. Upvoting the feedback from others and team activist feature reduce noise whilst ensuring a wide spectrum of perspectives is captured.

“Effective communication is 20% what you know and 80% how you feel about what you know.“
– Jim Rohn
Vibrant organisations embrace diversity of opinions, background and promote the culture of being teachable. This applies to everyone - leaders and the grassroots.
The bigger picture. Your team's, project or enterprize journey
Modern organisations and teams are built around the concept of social capital (not the resources lens).
There is always something important about a group of people coming together to achieve something great. This applies to any type of engagement - one-off projects, enterprise journeys, startups, joint ventures, educational institutions, community initiatives.
Capturing the journey is an incredible asset that should not be underestimated. Neelix Team journal is a seamless autobiographer of your story. The stream of experiences and visualisations will enrich culture, and make the next chapter starting from a solid reflective foundation.
Innovation and experimentation that fits your context
It always pays to start how you intend to finish.
Employee blogging opens possibilities for rethinking how social capital and DNA of the team is managed. For instance, how often do exit interviews get lost in time or in HR filing system? Why not record honest insight into the team journal under a special experience category. Neelix empowers reflections through the humour and context of your teams. Confidentiality options encourage openness.
The trick here is to avoid the chores. There is no need for micro blogging. Also, there is no need for 100% participation.
Gamified reflections
Experience posts, where other people are tagged, flow into the Experiences Board. This gamified board can be configured to reflect any theme. Go beyond the simple "thank you" recognition. For instance, recognise persistent pattern that the team should resolve themselves. For instance, "I owe everyone a donuts for being late to catch-ups". Don't forget to inject own humour.
Neelix Experiences Board seamless translates posts into a gamified board that goes beyond simple thank you's. It is possible to deal with other more challenging and persistent challenges that normally get lost in water-cooler behind the back discussions.
