HUMAN INSIGHTS
Enabling leaders to identify and get ahead of problems earlier
We do this by measuring near real time human-centric data of team and stakeholder feelings, beliefs and perceptions
Logical and rational systems and processes, like those used to lead and manage projects and programmes tend to be applied like the ‘laws of physics’ as a though they are universally true and applicable. In reality context is often the most important thing in determining how people think, behave, act and make decisions. This simple fact dooms many universal models from the start.
Your Systems, Processes and Technology: Cause leads to Effect
Your People: Cause, context, meaning, emotion lead to Effect
If you aren't measuring the context, meaning and emotion you are missing a very real piece of the jigsaw of successful delivery.
As you know, your people really know what's going on - speaking to them all is virtually impossible in a larger team, over multiple locations and with hybrid working. Information and reports are filtered through layers of management, often changing the messaging from those doing the work. Employee surveys are only a snap shot in time. (Once a year usually.)
Why not find out in near real-time what they really think, perceive and believe? Are they really bought into your vision? How confident are they that it can be delivered? You get the idea....
We are working with Team Animation Ltd and Meeting Quality to bring the power of data and AI to the human apsects of our clients businesses.
What we offer
Until now, there has been no practical and useful means of measuring these feelings, beliefs and perceptions, relevant to your project context. Our unique newPM® system provides the data, insight and support to allow you to identify, get ahead of and control problems earlier.
Tried and tested globally with clients ranging from the Infrastructure Projects Authority to Defra to a giga-project in Australia.
So what is it?
A system for capturing, measuring and sharing human-centric data of current and forecast trends in team and stakeholder feelings, beliefs and perceptions, anonymously and transparently.
Grounded in behavioural science, offering early indication of existing or emerging problems along with a team-based approach to solving them, reducing risk and gaining control.
Augments and integrates with existing operations, project performance and controls data to provide fresh insight to positively shape informed decision making.
So how does this work and what does it give me?
It allows you to gather anonymous information from your teams, with their direct input and therefore their permission. All they need is a email link we provide. Its safe, secure and takes 2 minutes.
Our software collates and analyses the data, producing dashboards or reports using AI where needed within 24 to 48 hours. We can even produce visual representations of sentiment rather than numerical information. Trend data is gathered too, so you can see if your interventions are working.
No software, installs, or data analysis for you - just meaningful information you can use, with support from us.
Which functions should be most interested in this?
Projects
These new Human Insights can be used to assess the teams view of project success, risks, sustainability and a whole range of other factors to aide project decision making.
By getting the project teams view, you get a much earlier insight and can determine if interventions are necessary.
Operations
Choosing and measuring the right Human Insights can allow operations a much earlier indication of operational constraints, issues, team sustainability and productivity.
This can give you much earlier insights into risks to operations, that hard metrics only display after the fact.
Human Resources
As well as the extensive use for transformation programmes, there are specific solutions available for 360 Feedback and Coaching.
We can even assess the impact of flexible working arrangements, gender contribution or other factors you consider important.
Finance
Finance often have to sign-off investments relating to people related projects. How do you measure the real impact? By including this solution you get near real-time data.
These Human Insights can provide meaningful data to determine ROI.
What about data security? Is it acceptable to gather this information?
We only use data your teams are willingly to provide. There is no covert data gathering, or sentiment analysis without staff knowledge, that you might have read about. They get a link and answer questions so they know what information they are providing. Its quick and easy, usually with 'sliders' or multi-choice and some text fields. In essence, the process is no different from a survey - only the questions are more meaningful and relevant. They also get a copy of the results within 24 hours.
Oh and our data collection tool is compliant with legislation on data protection in many places around the world but if you want to know if we comply with your region, just ask.
