What is the Curiosity Index?
The Curiosity Index is simply measuring the percentage of messages that are framed as questions on Workplace (ie there is a question mark in the text). SWOOP will show you your overall curiosity percentage as well as the performance of posts when they include a question vs. when they exclude a question. In the Personal Dashboard, you can also see how your curiosity levels compare to the broader organisation.
Asking questions is a great way of starting discussions and conversations that can lead to deeper insights. The typical trend we around curiosity is when posts include a question, they will provoke a higher response rate.
