A Rypple Infographic

When it comes to feedback, there’s an enormous disparity between managers and their teams. In a recent poll conducted by Rypple, 65% of employees said they wanted more feedback, while 58% of managers think they give enough. The gap was even wider among young managers at small companies.

This isn’t just an academic question. Research by consultancy McKinsey & Co. and others shows a clear positive connection between feedback and employee engagement. So to all the managers out there, a little more feedback is likely to go a long way.
