Our Business solution may not be for every organization. The innovative design is based on the latest research and design in the field or organizational psychology. We have very strong beliefs in what makes an organization effective and we build tools around those beliefs. We have been on the ground working with executives and HR teams and we know how organizations perform.

We are disrupting the traditional HR tools used for assessments and annual reviews. We believe that those tools have become obsolete and your best people will leave you because of them. We believe that it is part of human nature to want to develop, but we can only do so when we are aware of ourselves, and 360-degree feedback in conjunction with coaching are the best available tools that will help us in this journey. The transformation in your people will be extraordinary if carried out with the right intent.

We are transferring our cost effective business model to our clients. We believe that 360 Degree Feedback and internal Coaching and Mentoring programs should be mainstream programs across all levels of the organization to build healthy organizational cultures and to develop leadership capabilities. We cannot achieve our mission if we sell our services at a premium, so instead, we keep our costs down and pass the savings on to you. It’s a win-win situation.

We don’t only sell tools, we help you build a development program in your organization. Our features are designed to integrate 360 Feedback with Learning & Development, Mentoring/Coaching Programs, Knowledge Management and Self Development. Our clients are using our affordable 360 feedback tool and development platform for Leadership Development, Sales Competency Development, Culture Development, Performance Evaluations, Technical Skills Development and Performance Management.

If you have contracted the services of executive coaches, you can easily integrate them into the system where they will have access to view information related to users they have connected with. You can have them make their profile available for all your employees or limit them to only your executives. In all cases, your coaches will highly appreciate the ability to use the system along with your employees.

Have you been planning on implementing a mentorship program in your organization? With SelfStir business, it’s a breeze. The system is designed to get people to connect with each other and tools to help each other out. Whether you want to set up a formal mentorship program or just leave people to volunteer as peer coaches on an as-needed basis, the system is flexible to fit any design that you wish to implement or may already have.

We provide multiple approaches to our system. Although our design is intended to be employee-driven, making it easy to set up and get thousands of employees using it within a few hours, we also provide the flexibility for the administrator to carry out 360 feedback on behalf of others. The administrator is provided full control over the customization of the system. This includes the management of the users, the themes and competencies, the recommendations and discussion area. Additionally, a view of the stats showing the usage of all the features provides the admin insight into how extensive the people are using the system.

Our system makes it easy for Human Resources & Organizational Development Champions, Management Consultants, Trainers or Executive Coaches to implement a complete and customizable self-assessment, 180 and/or 360-degree feedback system. We have also included developmental and collaborative tools such as action planning, journaling, connecting with internal or professional coaches, ability to create and share reports, while also building and capturing organization knowledge related to competency and leadership development. You will have all the tools that you normally use offline, all in one place and integrated with one another.

  8. Administration Panel

    The Administration panel provides the ability for the account administrator to customize the following: account settings, survey, knowledge forum, recommendations as well as communication templates.

    Administration Panel

  1. Action Planning

    Action planning is a key part of development and achieving goals. This is a space where you can keep track of the actions you are committed to taking within a certain timeframe.

  2. Journaling

    Keeping a journal is not just for matters that happen in one’s personal life. One of the most powerful ways to develop is to keep a journal of one’s developmental journey, tracking key reactions, thoughts, successes, setbacks, and reflections.

  3. Search for a Professional Coach

    Search for a professional coach if you think you may benefit from the support of a coach. You can message and/or connect with them.

  4. Search for a Peer Coach

    If you need support on your developmental journey but do not wish to work with (or hire) a professional coach, you can also look for a peer coach. Peer coaches are SelfStir users who have volunteered to help others out in their development. You can message/connect with one or more peer coaches if you feel they might be the right fit for you.

  5. Connect and Share with Others

    Humans are social beings. You can send invitations to connect with other users within the system, specifying what you want to share such as your Journal, Action Items, and/or survey report.

  6. Messaging System

    SelfStir has its own internal messaging system that allows you to send private messages to connections, similar to other social networks.

     

  7. Knowledge Forum/Discussion Area

    The Knowledge Forum is a space where knowledge is shared. Discussions can be started around anything and everything related to feedback, development, action planning, journaling, and other topics. Other users engage in these discussions by contributing replies. As a user, you have the ability to follow other users and discussions. You can also vote for discussions that you find helpful.

  8. Group Analytics

    Group analytics is provided to the account administration (for Corporate Plan accounts only) with an overview of the whole organization including trend analysis as well as group averages and filters. You can read more about it here.
