For investors, owners & boards

Understand the company
behind the board pack.

Add a protected employee perspective to your view of the business. Follow execution obstacles, the company pulse and how leadership responds over time.

Are the conditions there to deliver the plan?
A question worth making time for.

A useful signal between board meetings.

Financial results tell you what happened. Employee experiences can help explain what is making delivery easier or harder. Someone puts recurring themes, participation and follow-through next to each other.

  • Follow company-level trends and their coverage.
  • Discuss persistent obstacles with leadership.
  • See whether agreed actions are followed through.

Company pulse

August · Company-wide · Common pulse question

96 / 120People responded · 80%

69 of 96 respondents chose 4 or 5 on a 5-point satisfaction question. Results describe respondents. The people answering may change each month.

A monthly pulse. A quarterly discussion.

Use the monthly view to spot questions worth asking. Each quarter, review persistent patterns, actions taken and what changed. Treat the pulse as one source alongside management reports and other business evidence.

Oversight with clear boundaries.

Access is agreed with each company. Boards and investors see authorised group results, not private employee conversations. Separate organisations keep separate access boundaries. The pulse is not an individual performance rating or a company valuation.

Start with one month.

Choose the people, the question and who will act on the answer.
