Guides to team feedback and surveys
Short guides for people planning a team survey. Choose one by the task in front of you: plan a meeting to discuss feedback, understand why self-ratings and others’ ratings differ, see why a small group’s results are hidden, or choose the right survey. They draw on published research and on the rules Facets’ own questionnaire runs under, with sources named.
