Pulse Check

The team barometer

Gut feeling is good. The pulse check is better. It makes invisible team dynamics visible, measurable, and discussable. This gives teams and managers the impetus to appreciate what is going well and to address what needs improvement.

Leaders who take responsibility

The pulse check regularly reflects on managers how their style is received and what the team needs. In this way, they illuminate blind spots on their own responsibility and further develop their leadership work. Keyword: Positive leadership.

Frequently asked questions

What distinguishes the wyrd pulse check from a classic employee survey?

Classic surveys are often annual mammoth projects that take a long time to evaluate. The wyrd pulse check is a continuous “team barometer”. It only lasts 3 minutes, takes place regularly (e.g. quarterly) and provides immediate results. Instead of collecting data for HR, he gives the team and the manager direct impulses to improve collaboration now.

Is the pulse check based on science or gut feeling?

We rely on evidence. The pulse check combines that PERMA model positive psychology with current research on work satisfaction. This is how you measure the factors that are proven to be decisive for commitment, health and performance.

What happens with the results?

Data without action is useless. Wyrd therefore prepares the results in such a way that they can be discussed immediately. Leaders do not receive bare figures, but context and reflection questions in order to identify blind spots and actively shape the dialogue with the team.

How much time do employees have to invest?

Maximum 3 minutes per check. We have deliberately designed the process to be “lean” so that it is seamlessly integrated into everyday working life and is not perceived as an administrative burden.

How often should we do the pulse check?

We recommend a quarterly rhythm. This is short enough to identify trends early on, but long enough to initiate changes between measurements.

Are the answers from employees anonymous?

Psychological safety is our foundation. Responses are presented in aggregate to prevent conclusions about individuals. The aim is to recognize patterns in the team, not to control individuals.

Does the pulse check replace a personal conversation?

Absolutely not! It really makes it possible. With the results, you have an objective base. wyrd is the conversation opener, not the substitute for the conversation.

Is the tool intended for HR or for managers?

The primary benefit lies directly in the team. Unlike traditional tools, where data disappears into the “HR or GL silo,” the pulse check returns the results directly to managers. HR/GL is given the meta-perspective (trends across the entire company), but sovereignty and responsibility for action remain where they belong: in the team.

Doesn't frequent questioning lead to survey fatigue?

Only if action is not taken. Employees get tired when their input flows in the sand. wyrd delivers results in real time so teams can take immediate action. Experience shows that when feedback has a visible effect, participation remains high over the long term.
