Your daily stand-ups or weekly status meetings are bloated — and frankly, a complete waste of time. But, you need a way to get your team on the same page, efficiently. What to do? This is where our Heartbeat Check-ins come in. Use our Heartbeat Check-in to automate status updates in your team. You’ll align everyone around progress, and save dozens of hours a month (and a pile of money!) by streamlining or replacing your daily stand-up meetings.
How our Heartbeat Check-in works
Every day or week, we ask a periodic question that aligns your team around the progress they’re making. For example, we’ll ask “What will you work on today?” or “What’s your #1 focus this week?” You could also ask, once a month, “What are you most proud of accomplishing last month?” to everyone on your team. We’ll deliver the question via Slack, or Microsoft Teams or email, and share the answers with everyone in a summary. That’s it. Dead simple.
Keep a live, running history of progress
At any point in time, you can get a clear snapshot of how what each team member is actually working on. Use this to prepare for your one-on-one meetings and performance reviews — and to share with new employees so they understand what progress has been made, to date.
