🎯 Purpose of Employee Feedback on Internal Processes and Team Coordination
The main goals of collecting employee feedback on internal processes and team coordination are to:
- Identify Process Inefficiencies: Understand where existing workflows or systems are causing delays or confusion.
- Enhance Team Collaboration: Pinpoint areas where communication, coordination, or support between team members could be improved.
- Boost Employee Productivity: By improving internal processes, employees can work more efficiently, leading to a smoother event.
- Support Continuous Improvement: Regular feedback helps build a culture of continuous improvement, ensuring that each event gets better than the last.
🧠 Key Areas for Employee Feedback
Employees should focus their feedback on several key areas that are critical for effective event management. Below are the main areas where feedback can be provided:
1. Internal Processes and Workflow
- Event Planning and Preparation:
- How well were the event planning timelines followed? Were there any delays in the planning stages that caused issues closer to the event date?
- Were there any gaps in the information or resources provided to employees during the planning process? Were they able to access the tools and documents they needed to perform their tasks?
- Was the delegation of tasks clear, or did employees feel overwhelmed or uncertain about their responsibilities?
- Communication and Information Sharing:
- Were there any issues with internal communication, such as unclear instructions, lack of updates, or miscommunication between departments or teams?
- Did employees have the necessary information at the right time (e.g., event schedules, technical details, staffing updates)?
- Was there a centralized system for tracking progress on event preparations, or did team members rely on informal communication (e.g., email, messaging)?
- Decision-Making and Approvals:
- Were there any delays or bottlenecks in obtaining necessary approvals or decisions (e.g., on budget, content, or logistics)?
- Did decision-makers have the information they needed to make timely choices, or was there a lack of clarity around decision-making authority?
2. Team Coordination and Collaboration
- Team Roles and Responsibilities:
- Did employees have a clear understanding of their roles and responsibilities, and were there any instances where multiple people were unclear about who was in charge of specific tasks?
- Was there overlap or gaps in team assignments, resulting in either redundant work or tasks being overlooked?
- Coordination Across Departments:
- Were different departments (e.g., technical, registration, marketing, operations) able to work together effectively, or were there issues with coordination between teams?
- Were there any challenges with sharing key information across departments, particularly if different teams were using separate systems or tools?
- Collaboration Tools and Platforms:
- Were the collaboration tools (e.g., project management software, internal chat systems) used during event preparation effective in keeping everyone on the same page?
- Did employees have trouble accessing or using the tools provided, or were there any issues with them during the event itself (e.g., difficulty in updating schedules or tracking issues)?
3. Event Day Operations
- Staff Readiness and Training:
- Were employees sufficiently trained or briefed on their roles before the event began? Were there gaps in their knowledge or preparation, leading to confusion or mistakes?
- Did staff members feel confident in their ability to perform their tasks or was there a need for more preparation or support?
- Task Execution and Time Management:
- How effectively were employees able to manage their time and tasks during the event? Were there any points where employees felt overwhelmed due to insufficient resources or unclear priorities?
- Did the event flow smoothly, or were there delays and interruptions due to miscommunication or mistakes made by staff?
- Problem-Solving and Issue Resolution:
- How well did the team handle issues that arose during the event? Did employees feel empowered to make decisions, or were they waiting for approval to address issues?
- Were there any recurring problems during the event that employees were not prepared to address effectively (e.g., technical difficulties, attendee complaints)?
4. Post-Event Evaluation and Follow-Up
- Debriefing and Feedback Loops:
- Was there a post-event debrief to discuss what went well and what could be improved? If not, do employees feel it would have been valuable?
- Was there an opportunity for employees to provide feedback after the event, and were their suggestions or concerns addressed?
- Documentation and Knowledge Sharing:
- Were important insights, learnings, or documentation from the event properly captured for future reference?
- Did the team feel that the knowledge gained from this event was effectively passed on to improve future processes or events?
📋 Example of Employee Feedback on Internal Processes and Team Coordination
Here’s an example of the type of feedback an employee might provide regarding internal processes and team coordination for the May event:

Event: May 2025 Conference (Hybrid)
Role: Event Coordination and Team Support
Internal Processes and Workflow
- Event Planning and Preparation:
- The event preparation timeline was tight, and we faced delays in receiving final content from speakers. This caused some last-minute changes to session schedules, leading to confusion.
- Recommendation: Have a clear deadline for final speaker content and ensure that all materials are submitted at least one week before the event.
- Communication and Information Sharing:
- The communication between the marketing and registration teams was sometimes unclear, particularly when updates needed to be shared with attendees. Some registration emails were sent late, causing confusion for virtual attendees.
- Recommendation: Improve coordination by scheduling daily check-ins across teams to ensure information is being shared in real time.
- Decision-Making and Approvals:
- There was a delay in getting approval for the event budget, which led to last-minute procurement of event materials and food. This rushed the process, which resulted in minor errors (e.g., incorrect signage or missing materials).
- Recommendation: Set clear decision timelines and approval workflows before event week to avoid last-minute pressure.
Team Coordination and Collaboration
- Team Roles and Responsibilities:
- There was some overlap in responsibilities, particularly when staff members from the registration team had to step in to assist with technical issues. This led to confusion about who was responsible for certain tasks during the event.
- Recommendation: Clearly define roles and establish a backup plan for overlapping responsibilities to ensure tasks are covered without confusion.
- Coordination Across Departments:
- The technical team struggled to receive real-time updates from the event scheduling team, which led to issues when some sessions ran late and weren’t reflected immediately in the event platform.
- Recommendation: Use a shared, real-time updating system to keep all teams informed about session timing changes.
- Collaboration Tools and Platforms:
- The project management tool was not being used effectively by all teams. Some staff preferred using email or messaging apps to track their tasks, leading to confusion about the most up-to-date information.
- Recommendation: Ensure everyone is trained on and committed to using the project management tool, and provide regular check-ins to ensure all tasks are tracked properly.
