Adaptive Leadership and Cultures

I like the idea of acting fast on employee feedback - getting groups together to work with high intensity over a short period of time. Resource the sprint, get the results and move on. My experience with traditional engagement surveys, is that action planning takes time and then a bunch of people are given stretch opportunities working in cross functional teams to act on the results. The intent is sound, but in practice, the projects trickle along and apart from the lack of progress, the project team members gain little from the opportunity and if anything, end up less engaged.
