Every finding has a status

Notice. Understand. Act. Learn.

Nothing is allowed to sit here as an interesting insight forever. Each finding moves, or we say why it stopped.

01

Noticed

Something appeared.

02

Looking closer

HEWEN is gathering more information.

03

Confirmed

There is enough evidence for leadership to look at it.

04

Action agreed

The company decided to do something.

05

In progress

The change is happening.

06

Measured

HEWEN checked what happened afterwards.

  • The same delay described in four locations

    17 people, independently, without knowing each other.

    Confirmed
  • Two teams building the same thing

    Neither knew about the other. Now one path.

    Action agreed
  • A capability only one unit uses

    Two other teams are testing it now.

    In progress
  • A process people work around instead of using

    Mentioned in three regions. We're gathering more.

    Looking closer
  • Knowledge sitting with one service team

    Appeared last week. Too early to say more.

    Noticed
  • A customer question nobody owns

    Owner assigned in month 2. Checked again on day 88.

    Measured

Listening windows

A few short questions. Three times in 90 days.

We are not looking for who said it. We are looking for what the company is trying to tell us.

Week 2

Five short questions. Open answers. Everyone in scope.

Week 6

Follow-up questions, written from what came back the first time.

Week 11

A short check: did anything change where you work?

  • What makes your work harder than it needs to be?
  • What works really well in your team that other teams could learn from?
  • What does your team know that other parts of the company probably don't?
  • Where do you regularly work around a process instead of using it?
  • If you could ask leadership to look closely at one thing, what would it be?

How we handle answers

Answers are read for patterns, not for individual performance. Nobody's manager gets a list of who said what. Findings only leave this page when several people, in different places, describe something similar.

HEWEN also writes follow-up questions from what came back the first time, so the second round is more specific than the first.
