Graniitti has the right motivation
The majority of respondents found working at Graniitti motivating. In the role of a consultant, the change of work was felt to be the best: people, challenging and interesting assignments, tasks and versatile industries.
The consultant's work was described in the responses, for example, as follows:
"The assignment is suitably challenging and interesting in terms of role and tasks. I get feedback on my work both at the client and at Graniitti, and I get to work on interesting projects where I can use my professional skills. Developing Graniitti's activities and participating in them are also important to me."
The people of Graniitti are thirsty for new challenges
Most of the people from Graniitti enjoy their current assignment well. We would like assignments to support our own career development even more and we would hope to be able to influence them more than at present.
There were many opinions about the relevance of one's own work. Meaningfulness was interpreted in varied ways among respondents, but the experience of success in particular came to the fore. The experience of success was strengthened by the use of own expertise in solutions, the feedback received from the customer and the continuation of the customership.
The majority of Graniitti residents feel that they will be respected. In particular, receiving and giving feedback, being equally noticed regardless of location, and recognising professional skills were felt to be important.
Receiving feedback was perceived to be easy, but giving it was more challenging. In terms of giving feedback, we hoped for activity from both ourselves and others. In particular, the feedback received from customers was felt to be important and the process of collecting it was hoped to be developed.

An open communication culture is praised
The people of Granitti feel that the communication culture is one where the emergence of ideas is encouraged, and there is no harm in communicating about unfinished business. However, the skill of receiving feedback and ideas should be improved. It was also hoped that live meetings would increase with the new office.
Equality was seen as an important development target. The people of Granitti especially hoped that the expertise of various areas of expertise would be better recognised. It was also brought up that equality should not be dependent on the employee's physical location. Open communication, inclusion and other considerations were seen to increase the experience of equality.
Graniitti's management style was largely appreciated and it was hoped that it would be an increasingly active involvement in development and the community. Empathy and emotional intelligence, as well as low-threshold communication, were considered important:
"Staff are taken care of. It is easy to approach management and superiors. I will be heard and, if possible, I can influence future changes and/or reforms, at least by giving my opinion."
A house full of top experts
Graniitti experts know that success is the merit of many knowledgeable Graniitti experts. The house is full of great colleagues and the founding members are also willing to develop the company forward. Graniitti was also perceived to have good networks and good customers.
According to the survey, Graniitti did best in the following areas: Graniitti's future was seen as successful, giving open feedback was perceived as easy, and Graniitti was perceived as a good employer.
There are also plenty of areas for development in expert work
In the survey, the most important areas for development were having fun in assignments, developing a sense of the meaning of work, improving roles and job descriptions, and developing a more open communication culture.
Graniitti's future goals are particularly well summed up in this answer:
"I would hope that in the future Graniitti would still be able to influence the company's direction and development. Communalism would be maintained. I would also like to be able to influence my own assignment and what I end up working on."
The answers to the staff satisfaction survey showed that we are on the right path, giving us an indication of what to focus on more and more strongly. In cooperation with Graniittilainen, we will focus on development targets this year, so that we can create an even better and more responsible workplace for all of us.
We are happy to discuss responsibility issues and are ready to go on a responsibility journey with your company as well.
