Creating Heatmaps in Teamgage

Creating Heatmaps in Teamgage

Heatmaps allow you to compare results across multiple teams in a single view, making it easy to identify trends, strengths and areas that may require additional support.
Whether you're reviewing Huddle or Survey results, Heatmaps provide a consistent way to benchmark performance across your organisation without needing to open each team individually.
Heatmaps can be created for:
  1. Your entire organisation
  2. A division, department or business unit
  3. A region or location
  4. Teams sharing a common manager
  5. Analysis Reports (for demographic comparisons)

When Should I use a Heatmap?

Heatmaps are particularly useful for:
  1. Comparing Huddle Metric scores across teams
  2. Comparing Survey results across departments
  3. Identifying teams with declining engagement or response rates
  4. Highlighting areas where leaders may require additional support
  5. Monitoring organisational trends over time

How to Create a Heatmap

  1. Log into the Teamgage platform
  2. Select Heatmaps from the left-hand navigation and click New
  3. Enter a Name for the Heatmap
    1. For example
      1. Sales Division
      2. Adelaide Region
  4. Choose what you would like the Heatmap to display:
    1. Huddle Results
    2. Survey Results
    3. Both
  5. If displaying Huddle results, select the relevant Metric Set
  6. If displaying Survey results, select the appropriate Survey
  7. Click Add Team
  8. Select the highest level team you want included
    1. For example:
