What if your people could answer YES to these seven questions week after week?
Use the BITE7 Survey™ to keep a finger on the pulse of engagement in your organization. Connect the results of the survey to the tools in your Business Operating System (BOS) to systematically solve people problems.
Imagine what your organization could achieve if everyone could answer YES to the seven questions below.
Buy-in, Inclusion, Trust, and Engagement

Do I Believe?
Attract people who believe in your mission and the strategy you’re using to achieve it.
Do I understand what I'm Accountable for?
Ensure that everyone understands the purpose of their jobs and everything they need to be thinking about and doing in their various roles.
Do I understand how I'm Measured?
Provide everyone with meaningful feedback they can use to get better.
Am I Heard?

Why Does It Work?
BITE7™ avoids three traps that snare other employee engagement and trust systems.
BITE7™ was built to avoid the three traps that snare other Employee Engagement and Organizational Health systems, traps that cause them to fail. The BITE7 Framework™ is a field proven gamechanger – One simple seven question survey and BITE Index™ coupled with the tools of your BOS (Business Operating System like EOS®, Scaling Up, Pinnacle) is how you unlock the power of your great people.
It is how you “flip the script” making your BOS Implementation for them and not to them. It is how you finally root out all of the organizational confusion and dysfunction that is holding your people back from being their best selves at work. It is how you empower your people to attract the right people while repelling the wrong ones. It is how you recapture the company you always dreamed of.
For them, not to them
BITE7 flips the script. Your people will see your efforts as being done for and with them, not to them.
SIMPLE, CONSISTENT, and COMPLETE
BITE7 is straight-forward and easy for people to wrap their heads around. Most efforts fail because they are too complex or inconsistent, always skipping around, chasing the new flavor of the month. BITE7 is Simple, Consistent and Complete.
ACTIONABLE RESPONSE
BITE7 uses the tools and methodology of your Business Operating System (BOS) to build an effective, systemized, data-driven response. Other approaches leave employees frustrated by the organization’s inability to respond to feedback. BITE7 eliminates this frustration.
How Does This Sound
BITE7 Companies enjoy results like these.
Higher Customer Loyalty
Customers become more loyal and you are not having to backfill them each year. Do the math.
Better
Sales
Results
This goes hand in glove with customer loyalty, more customer trust leads to better sales results. Customers can smell it when your organization is healthy or unhealthy. if you smell sick, they stay away. Do the math.
Better Employee Retention
Less turnover in low turnover enviroments.
We have a growing client in the Gov Con space that increased to 82 and saved $6,285,432 dollars per year. They compute the cost of turnover equal to one year's salary, and they think that is low. Think about your company and do the math.
Better Employee Retention
Less turnover in high turnover environments.
We have a Salon franchise with 48 locations, when we helped the client raise their Stylist BITE their retention and turnover problem went away and their profits soared. People like to use the same stylist.
Less Absenteeism
People don't call out because they become connected to their team. Do the math.
Fewer
Quality
Defects
When folks understand why they are doing something, understand how they contribute, agree with how they are measured, heard and developed, they pay more attention and quality improves. Do the math.
Fewer
Safety
Incidents
Safety is a culture thing, a trust thing, a self-respect thing. When people feel connected to an organization, their self-respect goes up and their respect for co-workers goes up, this translates into better safety. Do the math.
Better
Bottom
Line
"It" just all adds up - people care more, they trust more, they have more courage to challenge the status quo, they participate and become engaged in the whole. This drives the bottom line. Do the math.
The BITE7 Framework™ we’ve developed with our clients over the last twenty years is about taking action, action to protect and grow your hard-won Organizational Health. Through years of research and implementation, we have discovered that there are seven needs that must be met for all workers to buy-in, feel included, trust in their teammates, and engage with their work. BITE7 makes Organizational Health measurable, and once you can measure something, you can work on it.
Unlike other health and engagement approaches, BITE7 combines how you measure (The BITE7 Survey™) with a diagnostic tool, (The BITE Index™) that leads to action you take through The Full BITE Method™ where you leverage the tools of your Business Operating System* (BOS) to continuously improve.

Attract or Repel
Attract or Repel is the book that birthed the BITE7 Framework. In it, Walt brings your favorite 20,000 foot theories to the ground for practical application. In particular, he digs into four very popular schools of thought on Organizational Health: Brene Brown’s Courage, Patrick Lencioni and Don Clifton’s Trust, Gallup’s Engagement, and Google’s Psychological Safety. He breaks them down and weaves them together into Seven Simple Questions you use to survey your people and then shows you how to take action, bringing them to your organization through the tools of your BOS, like EOS®, Scaling Up, Pinnacle etc.
