Employee surveys are a commonly used – and commonly misused – tool for learning about our clients’ challenges. Poorly done, however, a survey can exhaust organizational will, dampen employee engagement and overwhelm a sincere change effort. Done well, an employee survey can illuminate complex problems and engage staff in future change efforts.
While the pitfalls are numerous, the keys to a successful survey project are only a few. And most of them are NOT commonly known in business circles.
Join us for an evening that delves into effective survey design.
Are YOU using surveys correctly? Attend to find out!
