Providing feedback based on Mystery Shopping. How to improve it?
Feedback based on Mystery Shopping can either lift an employee up or bring them down. Imagine if a family doctor gave a patient their blood test results and said, “Well, you know, it’s just a meaningless obligation that you need to fulfill … check your iron levels.” And that’s it! Without explaining which indicators, how, why, what’s the expected level of iron, and what’s considered too low? Or, if the doctor took a blood sample, held it up to the light, and subjectively said, “What a wonderful color!” It wouldn’t be very trustworthy, would it?
