If you’re feeling overwhelmed, start by sorting out what’s helpful right now. Focus on the feedback that relates to your goals or projects first. And if something isn’t clear, don’t hesitate to ask for more information. By breaking things down this way, you’ll make it easier to handle and much more manageable.

Overload of information is as bad as lack of information, I say. If you are drowning in feedback at work, organise it in a meaningful way - categorise it into relevant groups. For example by topic. Or by positive vs negative responses. Alternatively you may decide to organise comments by demographics. Or feedback received from each business unit. The reason for doing so is to help you filter by themes that you can report on in a meaningful way. Ask yourself: who needs to know? What would your stakeholders need to know? There might be more than one group of stakeholders eager to know the findings from your feedback. Therefore, you may need to categorise the study differently for each of them.

Para enfrentar la sobrecarga de mensajes en canales de comunicación interna, es clave priorizar y categorizar los mensajes por relevancia y urgencia. Utilizar filtros automáticos en las plataformas de comunicación ayuda a organizar notificaciones y evitar distracciones. También, es útil centralizar los mensajes en una única plataforma de intranet o mensajería corporativa donde el contenido relevante sea fácil de encontrar. Además, establecer horarios específicos para revisar comunicaciones reduce el estrés y mejora el enfoque, asegurando una mejor gestión del flujo de información.
