Employees want frequent feedback on what they do well and how they can improve. In fact, 61 percent of employees prefer to receive feedback as they complete projects (as opposed to once a year), and appreciate casual one-on-ones with their managers. Continuous feedback is the new human resource management paradigm replacing old methods of annual appraisals. This is a means of empowering the employee to become more responsible for his or her own career. Employees who receive regular feedback can initiate conversations about their goals rather than waiting for their leaders to do so. Request feedback regularly to avoid unpleasant surprises at the annual review time. nGAGE @ Work enables continuous feedback and it is the most effective tool for: organizational development, talent development and recognition, productivity in remote working, preparation for the performance review, employee feedback trends, self-evaluations, team building, training and team motivation.  Features of nGAGE @ Work include: * Leaderboard of top performers * Ratings under performance categories * Ratings of attributes under category drill-down * Give feedback to colleagues * Request feedback
