Generating a culture of

continuous improvement is easy with deBa

To have a culture of continuous improvement is to constantly be asking: ‘how can I be better?’. It means taking on board and giving constructive feedback, being eager to improve and having a ‘mastery’ mindset where feedback is valued higher than being right or perfect.

Feedback is not retrospective - it’s given in the moment when the behaviour (positive or negative) is witnessed

fill

Feedback is non-threatening - short casual bits of feedback are friendly and even negative feedback is seen as an opportunity (improvement over perfection)

fill

Feedback is captured - documenting feedback moments on the fly is quick and easy with our app (low effort from busy leaders making it sustainable long term) 

fill

Feedback is quantifiable - because feedback moments are captured, they are measurable at a glance with our simple dashboards (visualise an individual or an entire team’s progress)

Feedback is transparent - employees can acknowledge their own feedback whilst leaders are able to prove their leadership efforts to upper management

Leaders accountable for providing continuous feedback

deBa's dashboard is the tool that enables leaders to ensure they are providing regular and balanced feedback to their entire team. This powerful tool quickly identifies any gap in communication between the leader and their team members. Early identification enables the leader to rectify the situation in a timely manner whilst also leaning on their own leadership for support.

Continuous Improvement Benefits

A continuous improvement culture is a proven mindset that is found across all high-performance teams and organisations. In its essence, a continuous improvement culture is characterised by an environment that celebrates improvement and encourages non-retribution for mistakes.

This culture is so important because it does not punish people for making mistakes, there is no retribution. People will always make mistakes. However, if they are done whilst acting in good faith, following the desired behaviours (driven by values), then there is highly likely an excellent lesson to learn from the mistake. 

Organisations that encourage continuous improvement celebrate the identification and addressing of an issue. Employees are encouraged to be honest and transparent about their actions which motivates them to always seek improvement in everything they do. Instead of mistakes being seen as weaknesses or negatives, they are viewed as opportunities for learning and growth. 

Real-Time Performance Management

deBa creates a culture of continuous improvement as it holds leaders accountable to coach, support and recognise team member’s behaviour and actions. A consistent reinforcement of the company values and how they translate into day-day workplace actions is an essential element for the creation of such a culture.

Goal Setting

The second essential element to creating this culture lies in goal setting.

"Goal setting is a key feature within deBa and is available for all team members."

The leader and the team member collaborate to set individual goals that follow some basic principles. The goals must be:

1.      Behaviour-based, i.e. controllable by the individual, rather than being outcome-based;

2.      Not linked to any reward or punishment; and

3.      Support the overall improvement of the individual and organisation.

Leaders use the smartphone app to quickly view each individual’s behaviour goals at a glance ensuring they can maintain focus and clarity on the areas highlighted for  improvement.
