3.3

Connect employees to active feedback. Define groups, departments, managers, roles, permissions

The HR sponsor will log in to Yva.ai:

  • The HR sponsor will upload to Yva.ai the CSV file with the information which defines the departments, managers, roles, permissions, gender, location and other demographic data, which will allow the managers to segment and filter their teams.

  • this CSV file should have marks on the employees who will start receiving the weekly surveys to provide active feedback. IMPORTANT: (A) the template message to the employees suggests that the first survey will arrive soon before or after this message. So the time and date of the first survey will be set to the morning of the day when the Executive Sponsor or HR Sponsor will send the message to the employees. IMPORTANT: (B): It is necessary to send only employee experience questions first (to mark "send all baseline questions") because the platform needs several days after consent to create collaboration circles for the leasdership part of the survey.

  • HR Sponsor should not mark any employees to provide passive feedback since neither of them has provided the consent yet.
