How the Innovation module works
Updated over 4 months ago

Amélio helps employers innovate with its innovation module that involves employees and develops their sense of belonging.

The platform leverages the strength of your internal network to find innovative ways to attract new customers, transform your industry, or optimize productivity in your company.

Here's how it works

Directed Questions

Questions with specific objectives are defined by the organization's administrator.

These questions aim to engage employees, for example, to define new strategies to accelerate the recruitment process, reach millennials, establish a new advertising campaign (better than your competitors!), improve your products, etc.

There are two ways to participate in the suggestions module: at the end of the survey and directly via the platform.

At the end of the survey

Once the survey has been submitted, employees are asked one of the guided questions and invited to share an idea.

When an employee publishes an idea, it is shared with members who are part of the audience targeted by the person who posted the idea.

Colleagues who have access to the suggestion can then vote for it and improve it by adding comments.

Account administrators always have access to all published suggestions

On the platform

Employees can also submit ideas at any time, or make simple suggestions on work methodologies or team activities, for example.

To do so, simply go to the Suggestions section of the left-hand menu.

Employees can then add their own suggestions, or be inspired by the various suggestions available:

The audience to which the suggestion is made accessible can be determined by the employee when they publish it.

The suggestion and comments can be added anonymously or not.

It can also be shared with the whole organization, its department or another, or as a private message to a single person.

➡️ Note: You can prevent employees from submitting suggestions to the entire company and also from submitting private suggestions. Here are the steps to follow:

  1. Click on the Admin tab > Customization, and then on the Ideas & Suggestions menu.

  2. Finally, under Audience Customization, you can check or uncheck the relevant options.

This option is only available if you have activated the Suggestions module.

Creating Directed Questions

Directed questions are available in the Administration section under Customization.
You can then add a topic in the Directed Suggestions tab.

They are created and managed by account administrators.

To Use the Module

To use the module, users must have access to the Amélio platform to view and comment on suggestions at any time.

If they do not have access, the suggestions can be displayed at the end of the next survey the employee completes. This option can be configured for the organization.

To activate this module, contact your Amélio partner or email us at [email protected].

Facilitating Navigation in the Module

Concerned that it might become a jumble of ideas? Amélio has thought of you!

Labels make it easier to navigate through the module and classify proposals.

They also enable you to identify which ideas have been retained, which are under development and which have been completed.

Employees can follow the progress of their ideas directly in the platform.

Filtering Ideas

The filters at the top of the screen allow you to view ideas according to:

  • Chronological order (from most recent to oldest)

  • Popularity of ideas, those that have garnered the most reactions. 🤩

  • The categories you have created

  • The audience of the suggestions

In short, the collaboration module of the Amélio platform allows you to maximize the strength of your network to take your organization further.

Perhaps one of these ideas will become your team's next flagship project!

The collaboration module is free with the Continuous Improvement package.
