Use case
An education-based organisation could see their staff struggle to understand internal policies and procedures. By allowing staff to ask questions in plain language and receive clear, source-backed answers, the organisation removed fear and friction from compliance.
The Problem No One Wanted to Admit
Staff regularly struggled to interpret policies and procedures in their day-to-day work. Many were unsure how rules applied in real situations, others where unclear which policy took priority, some did not even know where to look and instead of asking their manager, many stayed silent.
They did not want to appear uninformed or seem like they were not doing their properly. The result was inconsistent behaviour, avoidable mistakes, and growing risk.
The Reality Inside the Business
The organisation operated in a regulated environment with policies written based on external legislation and acts. These documents were correct and necessary, but complex at times as policies referenced legislation and procedures referenced policies. Staff were expected to read, understand, and apply them correctly. However, most policies were often skimmed and rarely revisited.
The Shift
The organisation loaded its internal policies and procedures into SnapInsight, along with the external legislation and acts those documents were based on.
This allowed staff to engage with policies in a different way. Instead of reading documents line by line, employees could ask questions in plain language and receive clear, source-backed answers aligned to the organisation’s approved content.
The staff could ask questions without fear or judgement of asking the wrong question or feel bad for not knowing or interrupting a manager. They asked their question and received a plain language, natural answer.
What Changed
Just in a few weeks the organisation could see how staff were interacting with policies and procedures. They gained visibility into:
Which policies generated the most questions
Where confusion was occurring most often
Which procedures were rarely referenced at all
This insight shifted how the organisation approached corporate culture and training. Policies that generated frequent questions became targeted training opportunities. Unclear areas were clarified and simplified, and underused policies were reviewed and reprioritised instead of being automatically updated.
The Impact
Staff became more confident applying policies in real situations
Managers spent less time answering the same procedural questions
Training became more relevant and grounded in actual scenarios
Risk was reduced through better understanding (not stricter) enforcement
Most importantly, the organisation began building a culture where understanding policies mattered more than pretending to know them
What They Learned
Compliance fails when understanding is too hard or too uncomfortable to ask for help. When staff can safely ask questions, policies stop being documents and start becoming part of how work actually happens and how it becomes apart of the culture.
