Feedback App
This free and easy web-based tool from Keystone Accountability is a simple way of getting feedback from your partners on what they really think about your work. The application starts by asking you to choose from a standard list of questions, like "How strongly would you recommend [your organization] to a colleague or friend?" Answers are on a scale of 1 - 10 or open-ended. You can add questions, as well. Then you provide a list of respondents to receive the short survey. Data are anonymous and confidential—you alone see the results on a private web page that is accessible when you need it. As more organizations use the App and a database builds up, you’ll be able to compare your results to other similar organizations.
