How Showcase IDX uses video feedback for recruiting
I recently had the pleasure of delivering the ROI of Nice presentation for Scott Lockhart and his team at Showcase IDX.
A week later, they published the following video to their YouTube channel and on LinkedIn. We don’t take credit, of course, they’ve built a “nice” company already, but felt it would be beneficial to learn new leadership skills from our presentation.
This is a perfect example of how a business can recognize and feature their people while promoting their culture to future job candidates and to clients as well. This video is an excellent exercise of giving a behind-the-scenes look at the people who make the company so successful.
The short film features employees candidly answering a set of questions. The results of this video make me want to apply to work at Showcase IDX! How about you?

Your fast-growing technology company should use employee surveys
When was the last time you asked your people how you are doing?
You can experiment with open surveys, anonymous, and video answers like the one featured here. For more information on receiving feedback (a core part of the Nice Method) read this article about how to get employee feedback.
