Engagement for tech and IT teams | Amélio

Amélio for technology companies

A team running below its full potential is costing you a fortune.

Your teams are still shipping, but at what cost? Can they keep up with the sprint pace, do they see where the roadmap is heading, are they already answering recruiters?

Quiet disengagement never sets off an alert

The signals are there, scattered across the week's conversations. Nobody connects the dots until a resignation lands.

  1. Julien

    Does anyone know what the 10 a.m. meeting is about? There are nine of us invited.

  2. Sarah

    The sprint priorities changed again. That's the third time.

  3. Marc

    I'm on call this weekend. Again. Fourth time this month.

  4. Amélio

    The pulse survey is closed. Your priority: roadmap clarity. Two actions have been added to your next retrospective.

    Roadmap clarityWorkload

What we think keeps talent

  • A ping-pong table
  • Pizza nights
  • Yet another team activity

What actually keeps them

  • A clear roadmap
  • Protected focus time
  • Recognition
  • A manager who acts

Amélio tells you which of these levers matters most, team by team, so your efforts land in the right place.

Your velocity depends on how your teams perform.

In tech, turnover isn't always the biggest line item. The real cost is a team delivering less than it could, sprint after sprint, with annual reviews that change nothing.

CyberPublicity's eNPS, from January to October 2023

Success story · CyberPublicity

Salary increases weren't enough. Recognition made the difference.

This Montreal digital agency of about fifty people raised salaries dramatically: the effect on engagement was short-lived. With Amélio, it measured what really mattered and launched a recognition program.

70%of employees see themselves staying more than two years, up from 47% before. The eNPS is nearly seven times higher in ten months.
We've seen a huge difference in our staff retention since we implemented the Recognition module.

29 languages

For teams spread out here and abroad, everyone answers in their own language.

Tight release deadlines count too

End-of-cycle overload, always-on availability, isolation in remote work: occupational health and safety rules increasingly require employers to identify and prevent these psychosocial risks, in a 30-person startup as much as in a 500-person company. In Quebec, Law 27 makes it explicit. Amélio measures them team by team, tracks your actions and keeps a record of your approach.

Objections we hear from tech leaders

Our employees won't answer another survey.

They answer when they see their responses lead to action. Across our clients, average participation is above 85%.

It's an HR tool. Our engineering managers won't use it.

They get one or two concrete actions to bring into their retrospectives and one-on-ones. No theory, no HR jargon to wade through.

We're in the middle of a reorg. This isn't the time.

That's exactly when uncertainty weighs the most. Measuring buy-in during change lets you adjust your communication before you lose people. See our change management advisory services.

We're a small team of 20 to 50 people. Is this relevant?

Yes. In a small team, every departure hits hard. Anonymity stays protected through result groupings.

See the four other questions

We already run an annual survey. Why change?

What happens to the results once they've been presented? With Amélio, the survey is only the starting point: each manager gets their team's action plan, to bring into retrospectives and one-on-ones, plus automated coaching to carry it out. During a reorg or a launch, a pulse survey checks whether things are moving.

Where is our data hosted?

In Canada, encrypted, in a SOC 2 Type 2 certified environment that complies with Quebec's Law 25 and the GDPR.

Can Amélio help us with psychosocial risk prevention?

Yes. The diagnostic measures psychosocial risk factors and helps you document your actions, including for Quebec's Law 27. Our team also offers psychosocial risk advisory services.

Amélio measures engagement. What about our employees' performance?

Amélio also includes a performance management module: goals that tie every sprint to company priorities, a development plan to deepen each developer's expertise, reviews and one-on-one meetings. Because it's connected to engagement results, managers evaluate each person with their team's context, rather than with an isolated score. See performance management.

Every sprint without visibility into your teams is a risk you aren't measuring.
