Automate Supervisor Check-Ins
Regular one-on-one check-ins are essential for retaining employees, yet they often get pushed aside when managers juggle multiple priorities. Without consistent touchpoints, concerns go unnoticed and engagement drops. By automating check-ins, you ensure every team member gets the support they need, preventing small issues from escalating.
How you might currently be doing this
- In-person job site meetings
- Scheduled phone calls
- Toolbox talks/safety meetings
- Performance reviews
- Shift/end-of-day debriefs
- Text message check-ins
- Supervisory walk-throughs
- Informal break-time conversations
- Team meetings
- Group huddles
How to do this more effectively
Team Engine’s automated reminders guarantee supervisors and employees follow through with regular conversations, even when wearing multiple hats. Our automations make sure no one slips through the cracks, and real-time visibility into check-in status allows leadership to spot potential issues early.
Why Use Team Engine Instead
Reliability: Automate text message reminders ensure check-ins happen consistently, whether in person or digitally.
Privacy: Text and email reminders allow managers to schedule and hold private, one-on-one conversations without others around to overhear.
Frequency: Regular check-ins ease the anxiety of formal reviews and create a culture of continuous feedback.
