Why Einstein would love Winningtemp’s AI (and why your team will too!)

Why Einstein would love Winningtemp’s AI (and why your team will too!)

Einstein said it best - the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. 

Now Einstein might not have used Winningtemp but we’re sure he’d appreciate it. Afterall, in this instance, Winningtemp is a modern solution to the contemporary problem of doing the same thing over again and expecting it to work out differently.

For example, our employee engagement survey doesn’t send the same questions out every time. Instead it learns from previous responses and sends out personalised questions tailored to each employee. Pretty cool, right?

So what does this mean and why does it matter?

Look at it this way; one of your employees, we’ll call them Sarah, gives a negative response to a question that they usually answer positively. 

Did you know?
This response will always be anonymous. As a leader, you can’t see Sarah’s answers or know how she feels. Instead, you can see how the whole team or group feels together. This anonymisation means Sarah always feels comfortable and answers truthfully. 

What Winningtemp’s machine learning will do next for you is take the negative response as a cue. It will automatically follow up with different related questions within the same category in upcoming surveys to determine whether this change was just a one-time thing (maybe Sarah was having a bad day) or if there’s something more going on and an underlying trend that needs looking at.

And this is exactly how Winningtemp supports your teams. 

By asking these varied follow-up questions within the same category, you’ll understand whether the response was a temporary shift or part of a bigger pattern, while also having the ability to quickly measure the impact of any activities or changes.

It shows you how they’re feeling, what’s working, and the challenges they’re facing, while also helping you know when to take action. This allows you to address key issues effectively, keeping employees motivated and engaged, and, most importantly, show them that their opinions matter.

For you, this means real-time insights into your team and how to build a team that not only performs well but also feels great doing it. It’s not just insights you get, either. Winningtemp analyses your team’s feedback and suggests recommended actions based on world-leading research. This means you can focus on what really matters to your team - creating plans for improving engagement and performance and setting them in action.

If we jump back to the example with Sarah, you can see that your team is experiencing high levels of stress right now. You know this because of how they answered the questions in the survey and Winningtemp flagged it for you. So what are you going to do? Don’t worry, you’re in luck. You’ll be given recommended actions to take depending on the situation. 

In this case, one of the recommended actions could be initiating a discussion with your team about the boundaries between work and private life. Things like whether the team members continue to work after hours? Are they checking emails late in the evening? And even quizzing them about whether they have time for proper rest, physical activity, and balance between their personal and professional lives. 

As you can see, this isn’t just about gathering data or sending out surveys as a box-ticking exercise. Winningtemp helps you listen, learn, and act in ways that make a real difference to your team’s engagement and wellbeing.

Because without action, collecting data means nothing.​
​And without the right data, action is pointless too.​

Let’s take a closer look at how it works and how it can help build a brilliant team, a fantastic culture, and an environment where your employees feel safe, happy, and valued.

More than a survey tool

Think of Winningtemp like your wingman or trusty co-pilot; You’re in control but it’s there to help and guide you when you need a little extra support.

Here’s some of the ways it does it:

  • It asks adaptive questions. As we’ve mentioned, Winningtemp’s ML selects survey questions tailored to each employee’s previous responses. This means your team gets personalised and relevant questions - which is huge. It makes them cared for, listened to, and valued. 
  • It spots trends. By analysing patterns over time, our machine learning identifies trends that might otherwise go unnoticed - helping you tackle small issues before they grow into much bigger ones.
  • It gives you anonymised insights. All data is pulled together and anonymised, giving you a clear picture of how your team is really feeling without compromising their trust and privacy.
  • It delivers real-time feedback. Winningtemp helps you keep your finger on the pulse of your team, collecting and processing data in real time. This means you don’t have to wait around for annual survey results - with our easy-to-read dashboard, you’ll see what’s going on in your team the moment it happens.
  • It sends proactive alerts. Catching a problem early - and before it gets out of control - is a big deal. It’s why Winningtemp’s AI flags early warning signs, such as poor engagement or increased stress within the team - which is all anonymised.
  • It provides you with recommended actions. As we saw in the earlier example, Winningtemp gives you recommended actions. Based on your team’s feedback and needs, it suggests specific actions you can take to improve engagement, wellbeing, and performance. These tailored recommendations make it easier than ever to turn insights into real, positive change.

In short, Winningtemp uses AI and machine learning to take the guesswork out of leading your team. 

It gives you:

  • A clear picture of how your team is feeling so you can fix problems fast.
  • Tools to celebrate wins and understand what’s working well.
  • Simple ways to take action and keep your team happy and engaged.

And the best part? It’s super easy to use - no confusing data to analyse or lots of tech knowledge is needed.

We know that when people feel listened to, they work harder, stay longer, and feel good about their jobs. Winningtemp helps you make your workplace a positive space where everyone wins.
