What Are Actions?

What are Actions?

Actions in Teamgage are a simple but powerful way to capture, manage and track progress on ideas, improvements, and decisions that come from team feedback.
They help turn insights into meaningful next steps, keeping teams focused on what matters most and ensuring feedback leads to visible action over time.

Why Use Actions?

Feedback alone does not create change, action does.
Research in behaviour change and workplace improvement consistently shows that progress is more likely when actions are:
  1. Clear and achievable
  2. Easy to follow through on
  3. Embedded into everyday team routines
  4. Visible and accountable over time
That’s why Teamgage Actions are designed to support small, practical and context-specific improvements that leaders and teams can act on immediately.
Rather than creating large or complex action plans, Actions help teams build momentum through continuous improvement and regular follow-through.
Actions can help your team:
  1. Record what has been agreed on
  2. Assign ownership and accountability
  3. Set timelines and track progress
  4. Keep teams aligned and moving forward
  5. Demonstrate that feedback is being acted on

Where can you create Actions?

You can create and manage Actions in multiple areas within Teamgage.

  • Teamgage Huddle: Capture follow-up actions directly from team discussions and feedback conversations.

  • Surveys: Create targeted actions in response to survey themes, trends or opportunities for improvement.

No matter where they are created, Actions remain connected to your team and visible to the appropriate leaders and administrators to help maintain momentum and accountability.

What happens after you create an Action?

Once an Action is created, it becomes part of your team’s ongoing improvement activity.
Actions are:
  1. Visible within your team dashboard
  2. Tracked over time so progress can be monitored
  3. Flexible and editable as priorities evolve
You can update:
  1. Owners
  2. Due dates
  3. Progress status
  4. Action details
This helps teams adapt and refine actions as work and priorities change.

Who can see and manage Actions?

Actions are visible to relevant leaders and Teamgage Administrators, helping teams stay aligned and accountable.
If your team has active Actions, any in-progress items may automatically appear in the message field when sharing results, helping keep team members informed about current priorities and progress.
