😍 You can now customize seniority levels in the Multitudes app! No two teams have the exact same level setup, so we’re happy to announce that you can now configure the levels of team members in order to provide color-coding on our Feedback Flows chart. More here: docs.multitudes.com/configuratio...

Feedback Quality v2 is live! A bunch of you told us what you loved about v1 and what we could do to make it even better, so we listened (and made changes)! Thanks for helping us reclassify feedback, and flagging when our model read too much into the use of cheeky emojis. More here: bit.ly/46fkgXn
A chart showing our Feedback Quality feature, now with improved insights that add context to your feedback data to help your team spot what to focus on first.A chart with the H1 "we listened: improvements to how we show "negative feedback". This shows how we updated the framing of negative feedback to "needs attention" – because models miss things that humans know!This shows two separate images – one is a chart that provides insights on 1:1 feedback received, and also a pane where you can customize specific rules around Feedback Quality on the app i.e. phrases to exclude.

@honeycomb.io needed to track and report the human impact of on-call alerts. Together, we co-designed a solution that cut their reporting time by 90% and provided transparent reporting on the impact of alerts. Read here: www.multitudes.com/success-stor...
Honeycomb did alert reporting 10x faster with Multitudes - chart showing disrupted hours trending down. Quote: If our team wants to look at the on-call data on a weekly basis instead of a quarterly basis, it’s easy now.

How this works in practice ➡️ The view shows the distinct number of calendar hours disrupted by pages. For example, if there are pages at 6.30pm, 7.15pm, and 7.25pm, we would count two disrupted hours (6-7pm, and 7-8pm). Want to see it in action? Book a product demo: multitudes.com/demo

Multitudes @multitudes.co · 08/04/2025
With this new view, you’ll be able to clearly see the difference between concentrated and distributed disruptions to better understand the human impact on your team.

Multitudes @multitudes.co · 08/04/2025
That’s why we’ve launched a new Disrupted Hours chart view – now you can use our in-chart toggles to view page disruptions based on the total number of pages or the distinct number of hours disrupted by pages. 🤩

Multitudes @multitudes.co · 08/04/2025
Looking after your team’s wellbeing while managing on-call page disruptions can be a juggle. PagerDuty research found that 54% of page responders are being interrupted outside of normal working hours. The wellbeing impact of being paged 5 times over 5 hours is larger than 5 times in one hour.

The research discusses the perceived tension between being human-centric AND data-driven; teams want to be both but struggle with how. What helps is building trust and being transparent with the use of metrics, because those support psychological safety. 💡

Trait #4 (2/2) - 💡 Technical ability: Sean also doesn’t think strong engineers need to be particularly hard workers with working long hours. His experience suggests that good work looks like short intense bursts of productivity separated by long periods of relative inactivity.
010
Multitudes @multitudes.co · 19/01/2025
Trait #4 (1/2):💡 Technical ability – Deeply technical people will see simple solutions that others miss, and solve whole categories of problems that others can’t.
010
Multitudes @multitudes.co · 19/01/2025
Trait #3: 💡 Speed – They work fast. Sean believes there are two reasons for this – they don’t put off hard work, and they tackle hard tasks which means they accumulate experience rapidly.
010
Multitudes @multitudes.co · 19/01/2025
Trait #2:💡 Pragmatism – They get things done and have a bias towards working solutions. They're ruthless pragmatists: every design decision is judged by how well it'll work, not how clean or elegant it is. They’re typically happy to make compromises in the interest of shipping.
010
Multitudes @multitudes.co · 19/01/2025
Trait #1:💡 Self-belief – Software problems are all unfamiliar problems, therefore engineers work in the dark. For each new piece of work, it’s impossible to say how tricky it’ll be until it’s completed. Strong engineers have the confidence to know they can figure it out.

Multitudes @multitudes.co · 19/01/2025

Takeaway #3: If the wants and needs of the company and employee are not aligned, you’re not doing them any favors by dragging it out or keeping the employee around in a prolonged state of purgatory.

Multitudes @multitudes.co · 18/12/2024
Takeaway #2: You should rarely try to change someone’s mind about leaving. But always try to understand why they’re leaving. Offering some form of development vs throwing money at the employee has worked for Charity.
