In short, make your own visual management feedback board. As a result, give colleagues the opportunity to share views. Likewise, to put forward ideas. Above all, to deliver continuous improvement.
A visual way to listen
A visual management feedback board works in a number of ways. Firstly, it makes the feedback process visual. Likewise, visible and accessible to all. Secondly, it shows colleagues their opinions matter. In other words, it is a visual way of actively listening. Furthermore, taking action in response to those views. As a result, people feel valued. Likewise, heard.

Team members can share views openly if they choose. On the other hand, however, they can offer feedback anonymously too. For example, by using the letterbox on the board. Above all, team members have the chance to voice opinions. Most importantly, in the way they find most approachable. Consequently, to make suggestions or share concerns.
Visual management feedback board for a continuous process
So, here is an idea for how this approach works. Firstly, put your feedback board somewhere visible. Secondly, invite your colleague to share feedback. In addition, put in place a review process for handling feedback. Subsequently, share what action your organisation is taking in response. So, for instance, use the A3 document holder to provide updates. Therefore, your team can check in and see how their feedback is resulting in action. For example, using the “you said, we did” model of engagement.
Furthermore, use the feedback board as regularly as you need. For instance, to address a particular topic. On the other hand, make providing suggestions an open-ended invitation. In other words, make your team feel welcome to share feedback anytime.
So many benefits
Most importantly, by making feedback a visual process, you are showing that your teams views matter. Likewise, your organisation benefits from the wealth of knowledge your team has.
Above all, place importance on this valuable process. As a result, give it prominence. Therefore, make your visual management feedback board visible. Likewise, accessible to all. In addition, you choose your colours and design. Most importantly, make it clear how valuable your team’s feedback is.

Our Approach
We create visual management boards everyday. As a result we have plenty of experience. We work for organisations in food production, the power industry, national rail, pharmaceuticals, education, healthcare, packaging and distribution.
Our team works with a simple idea or sketch and creates a professionally designed layout. This is then turned into a highly functional visual management board.
We offer customised options because we want to create the perfect board for you. So, here are a few examples. We can add magnetic areas or a dry-wipe finish (for use with whiteboard pens). Furthermore, you can choose Red/Green sliders or R.A.G. (Red, Amber, Green) status dials so you can quickly and visually update your board. These are just a few examples of the ways in which our boards can be tailored to meet your needs. You may also be interested in whiteboard overlays that can be used on top of an existing magnetic board.
