When your employees are actively engaged in the workplace, they feel happier and ready to go above and beyond to achieve your company’s goals. Don’t believe us? Here are the stats.
Employee engagement software uses a combination of surveys, task management tools, and data analytics tools to help leaders in an organization uncover blind spots in their culture and boost employee engagement.
Employee engagement is the exact state of how team members feel determined and attached to their work. And while your job isn’t the main component of your life, it sure does take up a big portion of it.
While there are various definitions of employee engagement, our definition is simple: the level of commitment team members have to their organization and how satisfied they are in their role.
At the core of it, employee engagement is what keeps an organization alive. It’s a workplace approach that provides the best conditions in an organization.
When it comes to employee engagement surveys, it’s only a measure of how happy employees are, but it measures how dedicated people are to the company’s success.
Constructive feedback for managers is just as important as constructive feedback for employees. When employees feel seen and heard, they will be more open to the constructive feedback that their manager provides them.
Truth is, delivering constructive feedback is not always easy. There's a distinct line between feedback and criticism, and oftentimes those giving feedback blur the lines. To be specific, feedback and the words you use may alter your feedback to sound more like criticism and negative.
Feedback can be given in three ways: Through constructive feedback, recognition and praise, and criticism. When it comes to helping your peers achieve success, don’t fall into the trap of focusing on just positive feedback and criticism.
Unlike criticism or negative feedback, constructive feedback is used to instill confidence in your team members while telling them how they can improve. The primary difference between constructive and destructive feedback is the outcome.

After months of hard work, we launched our vision for the future of feedback. We're reflecting on last year so we can continue to reach our big, hairy, audacious goal of making peer feedback easier, more pleasant, and more productive.
We’re excited to announce the launch of Matter, a new app for professionals to become the best version of themselves. Discover your strengths, feel amazing at work, and reach your career aspirations.
There are over 6.7 million job openings in the U.S. - a record high. While software engineering skills are still needed by employers, there is another set of skills in much higher demand.
Welcoming Marc Reisen to the Matter team. Marc and I first worked together in 2013 and I’m thrilled to have him back on the team. Most recently, Marc was a Design Team Lead for Bitbucket at Atlassian.

On May 6, 2015, I sold my company, Hall, to Atlassian. I weighed 420 lbs on this very day. While up-and-to-the-right-type growth curves are generally the goal for start-ups and investors, this wasn’t the type of curve I wanted to see.
You’ve probably heard that cliché statement, “Feedback is a gift!” from mentors, supervisors, and bosses more times than you care to remember. Sure it’s catchy, but is it true?
