Recognising and harnessing individual superpowers is the secret to transforming a group of individuals into a high-performing team. But what exactly are these superpowers and how do you uncover them within your team?
Before delving into the exercise itself, let's explore what we mean by "superpowers" in the context of a team. These are not merely skills or competencies but rather the unique qualities, traits and expertise that individuals bring to the table.&nbsp;
Here we share a great team exercise that boosts engagement and the perception of being a high-performing team.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h3 dir="ltr">The superpower spotlight exercise&nbsp;</h3>
Through this exercise you might find out things like:
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Who is the process-driven one?
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Who is the one who always raises the energy in the room?
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Who&rsquo;s the person who always has someone in their network to connect you with?&nbsp;
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Who is the one with the product knowledge that you can&rsquo;t do without?&nbsp;
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Who is the calm one in a crisis?&nbsp;
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Who always pulls it out of the bag when you&rsquo;ve got a tight deadline?&nbsp;
</li>
</ul>
It&rsquo;s a great exercise for making individuals feel valued, seen and recognised for the contribution they make. Even new starters will have a superpower that they&rsquo;ve brought with them, that they may appreciate the opportunity to share with their new team.&nbsp;
&nbsp;

&nbsp;
<h4 dir="ltr">Step 1: Set the stage</h4>
Start by placing a piece of paper for each person in your team around the room with their name on the top.&nbsp;
If you have 10 team members, you&rsquo;ll need 10 pieces of paper with one name on each piece of paper.&nbsp;
This usually works best with flipchart paper attached to a wall, but you can work it best based on the space you have.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h4 dir="ltr">Step 2: Unleash the superpowers</h4>
Ask your team to write one thing that they see as a superpower for each team member on the pieces of paper.&nbsp;
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
What is that person great at?
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
What do you really value about that person?&nbsp;
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
When do you seek the person out for their advice and support?&nbsp;
</li>
</ul>
For a team of 10, each piece of paper should have 9 superpowers/pieces of great feedback for each person.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h4 dir="ltr">Step 3: Embrace the feedback</h4>
Ask each team member to go and find their own piece of paper. Ask them to read all the great feedback their team has given them and what they believe their superpower is.
&nbsp;
<h4 dir="ltr">Step 4: Self-discovery</h4>
Ask them to summarise, based on what is on the paper, what the superpower is that they bring to the team.&nbsp;
This exercise in self-awareness allows individuals to recognise and embrace their unique strengths within the team dynamic.
&nbsp;
<h4 dir="ltr">Step 5: Share &amp; celebrate</h4>
Now go round the room, person by person, asking them to share their superpower based on the feedback they&rsquo;ve been given.&nbsp;
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Are they surprised by the feedback?
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
How has the feedback made them feel?&nbsp;
</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<h3 dir="ltr"><img src="https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/YGLaO9LuZsr_6laLUK6uKAxyi8mbykTa_Hckrrbgtx-zwzUaEWOHJHzNeE8nyQKnN12UoemD8NZYGXAzkJthDhxfaz_OuF9oyPEbetcto4RztGw5_JGqVm89ETJ8_-XlKd-q1Uatxt00_ig_emx4D0k" width="602" height="301"></h3>
<h3 dir="ltr">&nbsp;</h3>
<h3 dir="ltr">The impact &amp; beyond</h3>
You now have a list of superpowers for your team! You can share a summary of this afterward as a way of documenting what everyone brings to your team and as a reminder for the individual part everyone plays in creating a high-performing team.&nbsp;
Bonus&hellip; notice that there are some gaps in superpowers that you&rsquo;d have expected from your team?
&nbsp;
Great, you&rsquo;ve now got some thoughts on future recruitment for superpowers you&rsquo;re looking to bring into the team, or a training plan to focus on for building up knowledge and expertise in your existing team!&nbsp;
We&rsquo;d love to hear how you get on!&nbsp;
At Ten Space we help organisations create high-performing teams through capturing feedback from members of the team. We&rsquo;ve designed surveys that help to identify the key elements of high performance in a team and provide the insights on where teams are excelling and where they need to focus to improve.&nbsp;

What are your team's superpowers?

<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/linkedin/">LinkedIn</a> has become the go-to platform for job seekers and employers alike.&nbsp;
💡 Each week over <a href="https://news.linkedin.com/about-us#Statistics">61 million people</a> are actively looking through LinkedIn for their next position.&nbsp;
Beneath the surface of those enticing job adverts and career opportunities lies a curious gap &ndash; a gap in the frequency of Human Resources (HR) terminology used within senior leadership job postings.&nbsp;
We analysed approximately 100 senior leader roles and 50 senior people roles, and found insights that have broader implications for organisational dynamics and workforce engagement.
&nbsp;
<h3 dir="ltr">The HR Terms We Explored:</h3>
We targeted three essential HR terms that encapsulate critical aspects of organisational culture and employee well-being:
<ol>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Culture
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Employee engagement&nbsp;
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Employee experience&nbsp;
</li>
</ol>
To create a thriving, high-performing organisation, we know that we need a healthy culture, high engagement and a great employee experience.&nbsp;
Responsibility and accountability for creating and maintaining this needs to be at all levels of the organisation. Including senior leaders. So we set out to uncover the extent to which theses responsibilities were integrated into the DNA of job adverts across different senior leadership positions.
&nbsp;
<h3 dir="ltr">Key Findings:</h3>
<h4 dir="ltr">The Culture and Engagement Disconnect</h4>
Only 21.5% of the senior leadership / board roles we looked at mentioned being responsible for culture, engagement or employee experience in their teams or organisation.
This gap reveals a disconnect between the aspirational culture-building goals, often owned and led by the HR and People team, and the actual articulation of these responsibilities within high-level positions.
<h4 dir="ltr">Functional Disparities</h4>
The extent of inclusion of these HR terms also varied significantly across different senior roles.&nbsp;
For instance, while a substantial 90% of Senior People Leader roles prominently featured culture, engagement, and experience responsibilities, other positions exhibited markedly lower percentages:
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Sales Director roles: 0%
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Operations Directors: 7%
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Managing Directors: 16%
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Finance Directors: 20%
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Marketing Directors: 29%
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Operations Directors: 33%
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
CEO roles: 44%
</li>
</ul>
So if you are struggling with culture and engagement in your sales and operations teams, it may be because the leaders don&rsquo;t see themselves as responsible or accountable for it. The organisation is asking them to be responsible and accountable for it.
<h4 dir="ltr">Repercussions for Organisational Success</h4>
The absence or sparse mention of culture and engagement responsibilities in job descriptions could signal a profound challenge.&nbsp;
Our findings suggest that accountability for <a href="https://www.tenspace.co.uk/blogs/what-is-employee-engagement-/">employee engagement</a> and culture is not being consistently woven into the fabric of roles throughout the organisation, from the top-down, and it&rsquo;s a UK wide challenge.&nbsp;
This lack of emphasis may undermine the formation of a healthy organisational culture, impeding long-term success. Leaving HR and People teams to pick up the slack.&nbsp;
<h4 dir="ltr">Shifting Priorities and Measures</h4>
Our research also revealed that the focus for leaders may be more centred on outcomes, such as team performance, rather than the inputs, such as fostering <a href="https://www.tenspace.co.uk/blogs/how-to-measure-employee-engagement/">highly engaged teams</a>, which is the underlying aspect of any high-performing team.&nbsp;
The lack of HR terminology in job descriptions might inadvertently shift the emphasis away from cultivating a thriving work environment.
<h4 dir="ltr">Impact on Employer Value Proposition (EVP)</h4>
The <a href="https://www.tenspace.co.uk/blogs/attract-retain-with-your-evp/">Employer Value Proposition</a>, a crucial aspect of talent attraction and retention, may also be negatively influenced by the way job adverts are crafted.&nbsp;
The relegation of culture and engagement-related responsibilities could send a subtle message about the organisation's true priorities for new and external talent.
&nbsp;
<h3 dir="ltr">What Have We Learnt?</h3>
Our analysis of LinkedIn job descriptions highlights a striking gap in the incorporation of HR terminology related to culture, engagement, and employee experience.&nbsp;
This gap points to a larger issue &ndash; the need for organisations to consciously integrate these critical aspects of workplace well-being into their leadership roles, from top to bottom.&nbsp;
The implications of this gap are far-reaching, from influencing organisational culture and employee satisfaction to affecting retention, long-term success and even the attractiveness of the organisation to potential candidates.
It&rsquo;s imperative for leaders and HR professionals to address this gap and collectively work towards building a more holistic and engaging work environment for all
<h3 dir="ltr">One Last Thought&hellip;</h3>
So, the next time you scroll through a LinkedIn job description, keep an eye out for those subtle yet significant mentions of culture, engagement and employee experience &ndash; they just might hold the key to a company's future success. 
At Ten Space we create bespoke surveys which allow teams to share their honest feedback anonymously.&nbsp;

Delivering great tech & quality service to maximise employee retention, engagement & performance with Ten Space

We're now Ten Space

Employee engagement is essential when it comes to business success. Organisations with high engagement outperform organisations with low engagement by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gallup.com/workplace/229424/employee-engagement.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">202%</a>. To ensure you&rsquo;re doing all you can to help your business succeed, you need to care about your employee&rsquo;s engagement. In fact it needs to be one of your top priorities!
When a company decides to conduct an employee engagement survey, one of the first things up for discussion is using a third party company to help you carry out the survey.
&nbsp;
<h3>Using a specialist employee feedback platform&nbsp;</h3>
1.Questions written with the help of a third-party perspective are the most effective. An expert, outside view will know what type of information will be most useful for leadership and HR teams. Not to mention the questions aren&rsquo;t written in a way to bias the answers.
2.Using a third-party employee survey company is extremely important for anonymity and confidentiality. It creates the safest of environments for employees to answer questions in the survey. When surveys are done in-house, it&rsquo;s difficult for teams to believe their answers are anonymous.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.thehrdirector.com/features/employee-engagement/improve-quality-quantity-employee-feedback-make-anonymous/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">74% of employees</a> said they&rsquo;d be willing to give more feedback if they were truly anonymous.
3.A specialist platform can help hugely with data analysis and can massively cut down the time to get from survey launch, to action taken. Choosing a platform to crunch the data for you can be a wise investment when it comes to interpreting and sharing results post-survey.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h3>Designing your survey&nbsp;</h3>
A long survey can impact response rates and could be the reason why your team isn&rsquo;t completing. When the number of questions rises to a large amount, many team members will try to rush through their answers or avoid taking it altogether.&nbsp;
It&rsquo;s best to keep the surveys concise with questions that will prompt the best answers out of employees.
<a href="https://www.spacehr.co.uk/how-it-works" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">We recommend</a> a mix of scaled questions (0-10) to give you data points and written responses. This way your team can complete the survey within a reasonable time whilst also having the chance to write more in-depth responses.
💡Try to limit your employee survey questions to under 20. Doing so will help with response rates and better quality data.
You don&rsquo;t want your team spending any more than 15 minutes completing your survey. Ideally, make it more like 5 minutes and make it a regular event.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h3>Sharing your results and taking action&nbsp;</h3>
The most important thing about conducting a survey is the action you take after it&rsquo;s happened. By sharing your results with your team quickly and committing to the actions you are going to take, you can quickly build engagement and make the process meaningful.&nbsp;
When sharing employee engagement results in company-wide and team messaging, it&rsquo;s important to:
BE OPEN - Don&rsquo;t try to position results to be better or worse than they are. Talk openly about them. How you talk about survey results sets the tone for receiving continued honest employee feedback and their ideas for improvement. Being open builds trust.
BE CLEAR - Employee survey results can be difficult to understand. Be as clear and concise as possible when you share the results with employees. Avoid jargon and commentary that will create confusion.
DON&rsquo;T PLAY DETECTIVE - The responses should be anonymous. When reviewing employee survey results, the conversation should never turn into speculations about who said what. This diminishes the credibility and integrity of an anonymous survey process.
BE OBJECTIVE -&nbsp;When communicating survey results, do your best to play the role of an impartial observer. Communicate the findings without interspersing personal opinions. Employees might be unlikely to share opinions if they feel they are being judged.

Knowing how to help your team engage and be satisfied at work is vital in creating a successful business. Use employee engagement surveys to gather honest, reliable feedback. This feedback and data can be used to take action and create an incredible workplace.

When a company decides to conduct an employee engagement survey, one of the first things up for discussion is using a third party company to help you carry out the survey.

Getting started with an engagement survey process

You&rsquo;ve completed a great survey, you&rsquo;ve got tons of awesome feedback. But what do you do now? How do you make the most of your engagement data?&nbsp;It goes without saying that you should be taking action from each survey, but it can be easier said than done.
Capturing employee engagement data is essential to knowing how satisfied and motivated your team is at work. Motivated employees are more likely to perform better at their job, in fact,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gallup.com/workplace/285674/improve-employee-engagement-workplace.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">employees work 20% better when motivated</a>. So checking in with your employees regularly via surveys will ensure you&rsquo;re able to address issues as they arise and maintain an engaged workforce.
By not taking feedback seriously you risk losing valuable team members. Employees who don&rsquo;t feel comfortable providing upward feedback are&nbsp;<a href="https://en-gb.workplace.com/blog/employee-voice?t=b" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">16%</a>&nbsp;less likely to stay in their organisation.
&nbsp;
<h3>Tell a story with the data</h3>
You can help create extra insight from your results by sharing them effectively. It can help people connect with them and understand the action that they need to take next. It&rsquo;s easy to get lost in the data - try not to! Consider key themes, quick wins and longer term big wins from each survey.
To get real value from the data that you&rsquo;ve collected, you have to dig through it and discover where you need to make changes. You need to locate both the strengths and weaknesses within your business.
1.Look for patterns - Are there areas in which your organisation scored low across the board? This is an obvious place to start. Identifying failings that are affecting employee happiness is key to moving the needle.
2.Dissect the data&nbsp;- At an absolute minimum, you need to be able to segment the data by department. Not all teams work the same, and not all teams have the same concerns. Data creates stories at both an individual and a team level, so be sure to consider both.
&nbsp;
<h3>Create a plan &amp; discuss</h3>
Once you&rsquo;ve identified patterns and drawn conclusions, it&rsquo;s time to talk to individuals one-on-one. Communication is at the heart of all successful businesses. It&rsquo;s important to talk about engagement and action planning regularly.&nbsp;
Is there time at board / leadership / management meetings to track progress and keep employee engagement high on the agenda? Not just the first meeting after a survey, but every one. Continue to share actions and progress with wider employee groups &amp; across the entire organisation. You can share the continual progress and show that you're keeping the conversation going.
For individual leaders, you may want to take the time to sit down with employees and&nbsp;discuss what&rsquo;s keeping them engaged at work, and what (if anything) is holding them back. Give your employees structure, help them plan for the future, and act on what they tell you so you don&rsquo;t lose their trust. Whilst were huge advocates for anonymous feedback, it&rsquo;s only one part of ensuring employees have a voice in your organisation, talking to employees one to one is another powerful method.&nbsp;
It can take some time for your action plan to gain traction in your business. In fact, on average it takes&nbsp;<a href="https://jamesclear.com/new-habit#:~:text=On%20average%2C%20it%20takes%20more,to%20form%20a%20new%20habit." target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">more than 2 months</a> before a new behaviour becomes automatic - 66 days to be exact. So being consistent with your action plan is the best way to get a new workplace habit to &lsquo;stick&rsquo;.
&nbsp;
<h3>Use segmentation to explore your data</h3>
Using segmentation in your survey can be a powerful way to gain additional insight from your data. Knowing specific teams or demographics who are less engaged than others can help to highlight retention risk &amp; drive specific actions.&nbsp;
You may find that there are key themes in smaller populations that emerge, which can have a huge impact on engagement overall when addressed. This can especially be true when addressing key themes for under-represented groups. It can have a positive impact on feelings of inclusion and belonging across the entire organisation.&nbsp;
There may be key areas, questions or themes that you might want to keep a close track on. You can build these into a dashboard or report that is regularly reviewed, so that progress can be monitored.&nbsp;&nbsp;
There is a word of caution when it comes to segmentation, it shouldn&rsquo;t come at the cost of anonymity. At Ten Space, we have an &ldquo;ethics&rdquo; filter built into our <a href="https://www.spacehr.co.uk/platform" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">platform</a>, this allows us to protect anonymity to create a safe space for employees to share feedback, but also to drill down to identify additional insights.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h3>Survey regularly</h3>
Employees feeling left out or uninformed could be a huge barrier to engagement. This is something that you&rsquo;ll be able to uncover through your data and that you should work on resolving. By surveying regularly, you stand a better chance of preventing problems that lead to resignations as you are building up patters and collecting regular data, in the moment it is happening.&nbsp;
By building up trends and themes over time, you can understand in great detail what employee engagement and culture is like in your organisation. Your teams are given a voice and when they see action coming from their feedback, they know their voice is being heard.
Creating great processes &amp; habits around employee feedback &amp; actions will pay off. This will come through in both survey completion rates and engagement levels.
&nbsp;
At Ten Space we offer quarterly surveys which allow teams to share their honest feedback anonymously. This gives leaders the chance to listen to their team, understand the problems in the organisation and work on changing things for the better. We also provide tools which help you with reporting. These enable you to take the feedback to your leaders quickly and effectively.&nbsp;

Making the most of your engagement data

You&rsquo;ve completed a great survey, you&rsquo;ve got tons of awesome feedback. But what do you do now? How do you turn that insight into action?
It goes without saying that you should be taking action from each survey, but it can be easier said than done.
Look at it another way. By not taking feedback seriously you risk losing valuable team members. Employees who don&rsquo;t feel comfortable providing upward feedback are<a href="https://en-gb.workplace.com/blog/employee-voice?t=b" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">&nbsp;</a><a href="https://en-gb.workplace.com/blog/employee-voice?t=b" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">16%</a> less likely to stay in their organisation.
Encourage employees to share their thoughts and ideas to show their opinions matter. It helps to improve feelings of recognition and increase employee retention.
&nbsp;
<h4>Taking action is key!</h4>
Employee feedback via surveys are most powerful when you create a culture of feedback and action in a business.
There are a few ways to speed up the growth of employee engagement:
<ul>
<li>Bake employee feedback into your culture</li>
<li>Demonstrate action</li>
<li>Deliver each and every time</li>
</ul>
In 2018,<a href="https://genhq.com/generation-z-research-2018/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">&nbsp;</a><a href="https://genhq.com/generation-z-research-2018/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">a study</a> found that over 65% of Gen Z employees reported needing frequent feedback. They preferred to get feedback at least once a week. This need for feedback goes both ways. Their desire to provide feedback is also strong.
Feedback and approachability play key roles in combating disengagement. In that sense, Gen Z pushing for a more feedback-centric work culture could have far-reaching benefits for staff of all ages.
The journey to an incredible workplace doesn&rsquo;t need to be a radical transformation. It's often achieved in small incremental steps. To show progress link action, improvement and investment to the feedback your employees have given you.
Here&rsquo;s our top 5 tips to getting into a great cycle of feedback and action&hellip;
&nbsp;
<h4>1. Before you begin &hellip;</h4>
Get everyone charged up and ready! Setting the scene in advance is a valuable use of time. In advance of the survey, plan out the time needed to analyse &amp; share results. Make time and space for action planning. This will make sure it happens soon after the survey takes place.
Make sure that your leaders understand the part they play and what is expected of them to support the feedback &amp; action process.<a href="https://www.dalecarnegie.com/blog/leadership-affecting-employee-engagement/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">&nbsp;</a><a href="https://www.dalecarnegie.com/blog/leadership-affecting-employee-engagement/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">A study</a>&nbsp;shows trust in leadership has the biggest influence on employee engagement. Make sure your teams know that their leaders care about bettering the workplace. This way, your employees are more likely to give honest feedback.
&nbsp;
<h4>2. Tell a story with your results</h4>
You can help create extra insight from your results by sharing them effectively. It can help people connect with them and understand the action that they need to take next. It&rsquo;s easy to get lost in the data - try not to! Consider key themes, quick wins and longer term big wins from each survey.
&nbsp;
<h4>3. Create accountability</h4>
If you&rsquo;ve ended up with a huge action plan, that&rsquo;s great. How will you know when it&rsquo;s completed? Where does the accountability sit? Using an action planning tool in the survey platform can be a great way to keep the action close to the results. We&rsquo;ve created a Space HR tool that does just this!
&nbsp;
<h4>4. Keep the conversation going</h4>
It&rsquo;s important to talk about engagement and action planning regularly. Is there time at board / leadership / management meetings? Not just the first meeting after a survey, but every one. Continue to share actions with wider employee groups. You can share the continual progress and show that you're keeping the conversation going.
It can take some time for your action plan to gain traction in your business. In fact, on average it takes more than 2 months before a new behaviour becomes automatic - 66 days to be exact. So being consistent with your action plan is the best way to get a new workplace habit to &lsquo;stick&rsquo;.
&nbsp;
<h4>5. Survey regularly - to keep the action happening</h4>
You&rsquo;re aiming to create a culture and habit around employee feedback. Shorter, more regular surveys and check-ins will help your team get into a great cycle. They will be able to accept feedback and take action for improvement. Creating great processes &amp; habits around employee feedback &amp; actions will pay off. This will come through in both survey completion rates and engagement levels.

<h3>What is a Toxic Culture?&nbsp;</h3>
According to Greg Barnett of&nbsp;<a style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(16, 60, 192);" href="https://www.predictiveindex.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Predictive Index</a>, a workplace culture is &ldquo;typically considered toxic when trust, psychological safety, and employee morale degrade to unhealthy levels.&rdquo;
Affecting productivity, mental health and employee engagement, toxic cultures are incredibly dangerous for both companies and employees, with symptoms spreading through a workforce quickly if not treated.
Examples of a toxic culture could include a workplace where employees are chronically stressed, overworked, or feeling bullied by their boss. And in most of these cases, the problem boils down to a lack of communication and trust between those in the&nbsp;<a style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(16, 60, 192);" href="https://www.spacehr.co.uk/blogs/organisational-structures---where-do-you-fit" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">workplace hierarchy</a>.&nbsp;
Due to this sense of distance between employees and their leaders, staff turnover in toxic workplaces tends to be exceptionally high. This is because those who feel disregarded, abused, or exploited by their managers, often would rather leave a company than file a complaint, mostly due to a lack of trust that their issues will be resolved.
It&rsquo;s not hard to see how a toxic culture can have a huge negative impact on the performance of a business. It&rsquo;s estimated that a &lsquo;poor company culture&rsquo; costs UK companies an eye-watering&nbsp;<a style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(16, 60, 192);" href="https://www.breathehr.com/en-gb/resources/culture-economy-report-2021" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">&pound;20.2 billion</a>&nbsp;every single year.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h3>How Does a Toxic Culture Develop?</h3>
Sadly, there are many ways in which a toxic culture can develop in a workplace. And while the &lsquo;root cause&rsquo; of the problem may vary from case to case, it&rsquo;s generally a lack of communication that exacerbates and conceals the problems.&nbsp;
When companies don&rsquo;t take the time to gather employee feedback; negative, or even abusive behaviour is allowed to go unnoticed and unaddressed. It can spread like a cancer throughout an organisation.
It&rsquo;s important for companies to send out&nbsp;<a style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(16, 60, 192);" href="https://www.spacehr.co.uk/blogs/how-can-employee-feedback-change-your-business" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">anonymous employee engagement surveys</a>. Surveys can give early warning signs and red flags, of where problems are beginning to emerge. Low engagement teams, or concerning written feedback can provide opportunities for businesses to jump in early where the culture is becoming toxic, or employee engagement has dropped.&nbsp;
Where a toxic environment has already formed, simple measures like this enable a company to identify and rectify the signs of a toxic work environment. There are some huge red flags to watch out for, for when a toxic culture has already set in:&nbsp;
Here are a number of common red-flags of a toxic workplace:
<ol>
<li>Abusive managers who shout at or speak condescendingly towards employees&nbsp;</li>
<li>A general feeling of &lsquo;policies and/or profits over people&rsquo;, where workers feel disregarded or exploited</li>
<li>Micromanagers who continually intervene in others&rsquo; work</li>
<li>Extremely negative and unsupportive performance appraisals</li>
<li>Any form of discrimination and lack of diversity</li>
<li>A failure to recognise and reward employee achievements</li>
<li>Harassment&nbsp;</li>
</ol>
This isn&rsquo;t an exhaustive list, but if you recognise any of the above signs in your workplace or business, it&rsquo;s time to:
a.) leave (if you&rsquo;re an employee)
b.) do something about it (if you&rsquo;re an employer!)
&nbsp;
<h3>How to Gather Evidence of a Toxic Workplace Culture</h3>
You may be thinking it&rsquo;s difficult to quantifiably gauge the health of a workplace culture. After all, we&rsquo;re talking about people&rsquo;s feelings &ndash; and feelings are subjective, right?
To understand how it feels to work in your business, it can help to gather quantitative data about your company's culture. Here are just a few ideas of how you can approach this:&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h4>Carry out regular employee engagement surveys</h4>
Employee engagement surveys can offer a wealth of measurable data, such as eNPS score and information through real-time feedback from current employees. They&rsquo;re most effective when carried out regularly. Quarterly surveys mean you are checking in with your team on a regular basis, whilst leaving enough time to action feedback and build trust in the process. Ten Space offers an innovative and anonymous method of surveying through Whatsapp, which delivers an engaging way to survey your team.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h4>Check your company&rsquo;s reviews on&nbsp;<a style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(16, 60, 192);" href="https://www.glassdoor.co.uk/index.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Glassdoor</a>&nbsp;</h4>
<a style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(16, 60, 192);" href="https://www.glassdoor.co.uk/index.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Glassdoor</a>&nbsp;is an extremely useful (and free) platform through which employees, current and former, can leave honest reviews about their work experiences, and rate a company out of 5. Whilst engagement surveys results are likely to be shared within the business only, Glassdoor is a more public way of sharing feedback.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h4>Keep an eye on your staff turnover and absenteeism</h4>
Employee turnover and absence rates are a dead giveaway of a toxic workplace culture. According to Monster, the average employee turnover rate in the UK is currently&nbsp;<a style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(16, 60, 192);" href="https://www.monster.co.uk/advertise-a-job/hr-resources/workforce-management-and-planning/staff-retention/what-is-the-ideal-employee-turnover-rate/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">15%</a>&nbsp;a year. And while not all staff turnover is bad, you might want to keep a closer eye on your culture if your turnover rate is much higher than this.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h3>How to Prevent a Toxic Culture From Developing In Your Workplace</h3>
While there&rsquo;s no &lsquo;perfect&rsquo; way to shape your culture, there are a number of vital ingredients you&rsquo;ll need to cultivate a healthy working environment.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h4>Listen to your employees</h4>
The first thing you need to consider is employee feedback. Right now your employees could be holding the answers to most, if not all of your problems. They&rsquo;re the driving force behind your entire company, and if&nbsp;they&rsquo;re not happy, how can you expect your customers and clients to be?&nbsp;
Take advantage of the insights employee engagement surveys can offer, and target the root causes of a toxic culture before one can develop. You can check out&nbsp;<a style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(16, 60, 192);" href="https://www.spacehr.co.uk/platform" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Space HR&rsquo;s powerful, stylish and easy to use platform</a>&nbsp;to get all the insights you need to keep your employees happy.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h4>Foster great leadership</h4>
As toxic cultures often stem from miscommunication and bad leadership, it&rsquo;s crucial to instil great leadership skills in your managerial teams. Of course, great leadership comes in many different forms, so knowing&nbsp;<a style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(16, 60, 192);" href="https://www.spacehr.co.uk/blogs/want-to-become-a-fantastic-leader" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">what makes a bad leader</a>&nbsp;is key to preventing toxic behaviour from festering.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h4>Develop trust&nbsp;</h4>
Trust is a key element in any healthy organisation. Trust is built from operating transparently; doing what you say you are going to do; and doing the right thing, always. A lack of trust in an organisation can quickly slow it down and impact on performance.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h4>Employees first&nbsp;</h4>
Finally and most importantly, always put your employees at the heart of your business. Without them, you have no brand, no clients, no service to deliver. Putting your employees at the heart of every business decision you make is the key to ensuring that your culture remains healthy and thriving.&nbsp;

What It Is and How You Can Prevent It In Your Workplace?

Toxic Culture

A watch out for remote working & hybrid working

Can you hear me at the back?

What do you do with crazy high engagement scores?
Take your business international! Read our Case Study of how we're working with BEAM Fieldwork.&nbsp;
One of Ten Space&rsquo;s first ever clients was is the wonderful BEAM Fieldwork.
Amy, the MD, leads a small but perfectly formed team of research professionals. Organising market research studies for large and well known brands.
When we first started working with Amy, we were in the thick of the pandemic. She had a number of team members who were on furlough and she was uncertain about the impact it was having on the team and what the path out the other side of lockdown looked like.
We worked with Amy to build an anonymous survey, which we sent out to the team via WhatsApp. This method worked for a team who weren&rsquo;t all sat in front of emails, depending on if they were on or off furlough at the time.
We built a set of questions that would allow Amy to take a temperature check from the team, gain insight into their sentiment and obtain written feedback to help Amy to move the team forward.
&nbsp;
So, what did we find? We found a team who were so engaged it was almost off the scale! Nearly &ldquo;full marks&rdquo;! In fact her scores were so high, they had us checking our code to make sure we&rsquo;d counted right!
So what advice do you give when the client can probably tell you a thing or two about engaging a team?! Well you talk about what you&rsquo;re going to DO with those engagement scores!
&nbsp;
At Ten Space we often talk about the engagement bank account, the more credit in the bank, the more great things you can buy for your business. The higher your engagement (credit), the more you can achieve with your business. We discussed how Amy could comfortably make some withdrawals; implement change, challenge the team some more, take some risks and still have an engaged team supporting her every move.
It gave Amy the extra confidence she needed to press the 'super charge' button on her business and go international. It had always been an ambition, but with the knowledge her team were behind her and some additional client wins, she went for it.
Fast forward to BEAM&rsquo;s next quarterly survey. We worked with Amy to evolve her questions. Her business was changing and so we needed to be tapping into slightly different things to keep it relevant and deliver the feedback Amy needed to move forward again.
She&rsquo;d just held a team meeting, where she&rsquo;d announced the changes and what the future of the business was going to look like. Big changes; new line managers, more risk, extra challenges for the team and no more furlough.
&nbsp;
So did her engagement drop? Did Amy make a withdrawal from her engagement to enact the change?
Nope! Honestly, there&rsquo;s dream teams and then there is BEAM! Amy knew what her team needed to keep them engaged in the future of the business (backed up with our engagement model). She was able to lead her team through the change, reset the vision and keep them engaged with her and with each other.
We&rsquo;re going to be following Amy&rsquo;s business, every quarter, evolving her question set to keep it relevant and fresh. To ensure that she knows what&rsquo;s going on with her team in the moment. What impact the changes are having and how it&rsquo;s impacting on engagement.
If something shifts and we see a downward trend, we&rsquo;ll know about it quickly and we&rsquo;ll know why it happened. Her team will tell us.
&nbsp;
We&rsquo;d like to wish Amy and the whole team at BEAM all the best for the future. We&rsquo;re honoured to be partnering such an incredible business at such a pivotal part in their journey. Go get them!
&nbsp;
We offer a managed service at Ten Space, so we get to know your business and where you&rsquo;re heading. We&rsquo;ll work with you to get you the employee insight you need to help move forward and achieve your business goals.&nbsp;

Employee engagement is crucial for accountancy firms as it directly impacts productivity, client satisfaction and firm reputation. Engaged employees are more likely to go the extra mile to understand client needs, provide tailored solutions and build long-term relationships. High levels of engagement reduce turnover rates, saving recruitment costs and preserving institutional knowledge.
                

Measure employee engagement in accountancy firms through regular surveys assessing factors like job satisfaction, work-life balance and alignment with firm values. Include questions on communication effectiveness, career development opportunities and recognition. Analyse survey results to identify areas for improvement and gauge overall engagement levels.

 A great employee engagement platform will give you the data, insight and feedback you need to enact real change in your organisation. Using a third-party platform adds an extra layer of trust. By segmenting the data from engagement surveys, you can uncover valuable insights specific to different employee groups. You can find where your problems are coming from and create targeted actions.

How it works

<div><h3 class="heading pb-4">What is Employee Engagement?</h3>To put it in its simplest form: Employee engagement is the level of commitment, enthusiasm and dedication employees have towards their work and the organisation. Enhanced employee engagement reveals itself in employees reaching their full potential and delivering exceptional performance at work.</div>

Measuring employee engagement in your legal firm can be achieved through regular employee surveys. This first step is critical in gathering data that will help you make decisions. Ideally you should be surveying your business every month so you can quickly observe any drops in engagement and affect a plan quickly to resolve issues. Regular surveys provide the data you need to build a strategic engagement plan based on real information, not gut feeling.


Using an ‘engagement specific’ survey platform will help you gather data faster, more securely and more accurately. The right platform will also make it easier for people to submit their responses in a way that’s easy for them. You’ll be able to compare results over time to analyse trends. By segmenting the data from engagement surveys, you can uncover valuable insights specific to different employee groups. You can find where your problems are coming from and create targeted actions.

Once you’ve done your first survey, things will become instantly clearer. You’ll start to see the hotpots in your company by a variety of segmentation criteria such as team, location, gender, role and tenure. Open-ended feedback will often help provide a solution to the challenges you’re seeing. We’re always amazed how much insight a first survey provides to our customers from a high level right into the detail. Measuring consistent data-points over time will help gain a deep understanding of how to build your strategic plan.


Build your employee engagement strategy

<div><h3 class="heading pb-4">High engagement means higher performance</h3>Employee engagement is a critical activity for professional services firms. Retaining your high performing people will help you build a high performing legal practice. 

But if you don’t have a way to measure engagement and understand when engagement is dropping, you run the risk of losing your top performers and a potential domino effect of top talent.</div>

<div><h3 class="heading pb-4">What is the Employee Engagement model?</h3>Some believe engagement is solely about having happy employees, but engagement goes beyond this. Enhanced employee engagement reveals itself when your employees reach their full potential and deliver exceptional performance at work.At Ten Space we use a simple model. It helps you explore engagement in your organisation. It shows you where you already excel and where you need to focus to improve.</div>

When your employees feel connected to the mission of the company, their engagement improves significantly. They find meaning and purpose in their work, knowing that their efforts contribute to something larger than themselves. They become more invested in the success of your organisation, leading to higher productivity, increased job satisfaction and a stronger sense of belonging within the team.

A great leader inspires and motivates their team members, earning their trust and respect. They provide clear direction, guidance, and support, allowing employees to perform their best and reach their full potential. A great leader creates a sense of empowerment, job satisfaction and loyalty among the team, leading to enhanced employee engagement and overall success.

 Employee engagement improves when your employees feel fulfilled in their role. When individuals find their work meaningful and aligned with their values, they are motivated to invest their time and energy into their work, going above and beyond to achieve goals. This positive mindset and attitude contribute to increased productivity, stronger teamwork and a happier work environment, ultimately enhancing overall employee engagement.

The highest-performing teams have one thing in common: psychologically safe workplaces. Psychologically safe workplaces promote healthier, more productive and more inclusive workforces. They also provide the environment in which innovation can thrive and people can perform at their best.
