CLEAR: Feedback that Fuels Success
Our Program
The Problem:
Poor employee engagement and morale are often driven by unclear, infrequent, or absent feedback. Recent data shows that 75% of disengaged workers attribute their disengagement to poor relationships with management, with feedback being a critical factor. Moreover, 41% of employees have left a job because they felt their feedback was not taken seriously, leading to widespread organizational challenges.
Significant Feedback Gap: Less than 30% of employees report receiving regular feedback, and 32% wait three months or more for it, leading to disengagement and feelings of being undervalued.
The Impact:
Disengaged employees are 60% more likely to seek other job opportunities. This lack of engagement translates into significant financial impacts, with companies experiencing 21% lower profitability due to poor employee engagement. Furthermore, disengaged employees contribute to an estimated $1.9 trillion in lost productivity annually in the U.S. alone.
The Costs:
The financial burden of poor engagement is immense. High turnover and low productivity result in billions of dollars in costs related to recruitment, training, and lost output. Without clear, timely feedback, organizations are at risk of sustaining these costs long-term.
The Solution:
The CLEAR Feedback Program directly addresses these issues by providing a structured, actionable approach to giving feedback. Our C.L.E.A.R. model—Clarify, Listen, Evaluate, Act, Review—empowers leaders to deliver feedback that is clear, timely, and effective, ultimately improving engagement, reducing turnover, and boosting overall team performance.
By implementing the CLEAR Feedback Program, your organization can significantly reduce the risks and costs associated with poor feedback practices, fostering a more engaged and productive workforce.
