Character Limit on Teamgage Huddle Comments

The comment field in Teamgage Huddles is limited to 180 characters.

Why the Limit?

    1. The character limit helps submitters distil their thoughts into key points, making feedback more focused and meaningful
  2. Improves completion rates
    1. Long comment boxes can slow people down or discourage submissions. A concise format keeps the process quick and user-friendly
  3. Simplifies analysis
    1. Shorter comments are easier for leaders to review, identify trends, and act on insights efficiently. This reduces cognitive load and supports ongoing engagement with feedback

Best Practices for Huddle Comments

  1. Focus on what matters most – Share the most critical aspects of your feedback
  2. Be clear and specific – Use concise language; avoid vague statements
  3. Make it actionable – Where possible, suggest solutions or next steps that could help your team improve
  4. Contribute multiple insights – Aim to add at least 2–3 comments in each submission to provide balanced feedback
Idea
A useful way to structure your comments is with the Stop, Start, Keep approach:
  1. Keep - What’s working well
  2. Stop – What’s holding us back
  3. Start – What we should try next
