What is a poll?
A poll is a really simple but powerful way of identifying top talent and performers. You provide an open-ended question for employees to vote on. Polls can be used to decide things like employee of the month, and should be used to recognise an individual from your team.
When the poll closes, the person with the most votes is the winner and the result is published in the activity feed.
