subject: Exciting Ways To Use Rypple [print this page]

Check out some fantastic uses for Rypple below. These have been excerpted from Rypple's blog:

Personal Feedback (AKA: "What do you think about me?")

What's it about?: The classic! Many people want quick, actionable feedback

on a specific task, deliverable, or behavior. Personal feedback helps

Rypplers to improve and advance their careers.

Sample Request: "What's one thing you liked about the presentation I gave

today and one thing you would suggest I change for next time?"

Customer Outreach (AKA: "How is our company doing serving you?")

What it's about: Knowing what your customers think about the service you

provide is key whether you're kicking off a project, running a promotion, or

simply running your business! Knowledge is power.

Sample Request: "Do you feel your recent project kickoff meeting has set you

up for success? How can we best support you moving forward?"

Team Feedback (AKA: "What do you think about us?")

What's it about?: It's about US. How are we doing as a team? What feedback

do you have for the group?

Sample Request: "How we can improve and collaboration and communication

within our team?"

The Micro-Poll (AKA: "Hey Everyone! Can I quickly get your thoughts on

this?")

What's it about: Forget email or long surveys that people hate filling out

(or don't bother responding to)! Asking a large group one simple question is

a surefire way to get the quick answers you're looking for!

Sample Request: "What was the highlight of this year's user conference for

you? What's one thing we can improve for next year?"

Decision Support (AKA: "What do you think about this idea?")

What's it about: Need to make a decision and want input from others?

Getting everyone together and slowly coaxing out suggestions takes too long!

Meetings can be painful when everyone is gauging their opinion by what

everyone else is saying.

Sample Request: "What do you think our team's top priorities should be for

2009?"

Executive Outreach (AKA: "How have we been treating you?")

What it's about: Engage your people by showing them that their feedback

matters!

Sample Requests: "What do you like best about working here and how can we

make our company an even better place to work for you?"

Rapid Peer Reviews (AKA: "What do you think about this person?")

What it's about: Supplement those hard-to-organize (and costly) 360 reviews!

Quickly ask for feedback to help coach your team to success.

Sample Request: "Briefly describe your experience working with John Smith

during Q2 of 2009."
