We believe in the power of regular reflection and feedback to drive personal growth and organizational success. That's why we use the 15Five platform for our weekly check-ins – a simple yet powerful ritual that helps us stay connected, aligned, and thriving. 🌱💫

The Purpose of Our Weekly Check-Ins

  1. Reflection and Self-Awareness 🪞 In the fast-paced world of work, it's easy to get caught up in the daily grind and lose sight of the bigger picture. Our weekly check-ins on 15Five create a dedicated space for each team member to pause, reflect on their week, and gain valuable self-awareness. By regularly tuning into our own experiences and emotions, we can make more intentional choices and take proactive steps toward our goals. 🎯💡
  2. Celebration and Gratitude 🎉 It's too easy to focus on what needs to be fixed or needs to be done. Our check-ins remind us to celebrate our wins, no matter how small, and express gratitude for the people and things that support us. By highlighting what's going well and appreciating our progress, we cultivate a sense of momentum and positivity that fuels our motivation and resilience. ✨
  3. Surfacing Challenges and Opportunities 🚧 No one has it all figured out, and we face obstacles and roadblocks occasionally. Our check-ins provide a safe and structured way to surface these challenges, whether they're related to work, personal life, or anything in between. By proactively identifying areas where we need support or see room for improvement, we open the door to valuable feedback, resources, and solutions from our team. 💪🤝

How Our Weekly Check-Ins Work

Every Friday, each team member at Float logs into the 15Five platform and completes their weekly check-in. These prompts are designed to be quick and easy to complete while providing valuable insights and opening the door to deeper conversations when needed. The check-in consists of the same key prompts each week:

🧭 Rating Your Week: “How did you feel at work this week? On a scale of 1-5, you rate your overall week experience. This simple score provides a quick pulse check on your well-being and satisfaction.

🏆Celebrating Wins: “What went well this week? In this section, you highlight what went well during the week. This could include key achievements, breakthroughs, or just small moments of progress or joy. The goal is to recognize and reinforce the positive.

⚠️ Surfacing Challenges: “Any challenges you’re facing?” Here, you can share any challenges or roadblocks you're facing. These could be work-related obstacles, personal struggles, or areas where you could use some extra support or guidance.

🙌 Kudos (formerly the Hi-Five) ****This weekly check-in ritual is also a great opportunity to give a virtual Kudos to one of your team mates, recognizing their contribution to your week, their efforts, support, assistance, or anything that comes to mind.
