Companies with highly engaged employees are on average 25% more profitable and have lower turnover rates. Measure your employee engagement with annual, short-form and pulse surveys to identify ways to improve engagement and track your progress over time.

An outstanding employee experience happens when your people are provided with a high-quality physical, cultural and technological environment that allows them to do their best work.

While employee engagement is an outcome, employee experience is the underlying process that should positively impact the engagement of your employees. To better understand employee experiences at your company, you need insight from your people. What do they think? How do they like to work? What could be improved?

The Employee Experience survey asks respondents to rate how much they agree with statements around these core working areas:

You can run the survey anonymously using the app webforms or named by creating items within the app.

Regularly "taking the pulse" of your team or workforce means you're aware of on the ground changes in happiness, motivation and productivity. 

Our simple pulse survey asks respondents to rate on a scale of 0 (not at all) to 10 (completely) the following:

How likely are you to recommend the company to others?

I feel my job is aligned to the company goals

I have access to the resources and information I need to get my job done

I can see myself working here in five years’ time

I can see the positive results based on my work

Employee engagement indicates how satisfied employees are with their working life, their team relationships, and the company. It's a critical part of HR management to ensure every employee is given the proper tools and working environment they need to do their best work.

Engagement is measured in a number of ways, the primary being the Employee Engagement Survey. You should send out this survey annually at least, or every three to six months if you're finding you have a high employee turnover.

Using the results of your survey you can engage key stakeholders (not just HR!) and build action plans to implement changes to improve your organizational health.

Likert scale questions to assess how well the organization promotes communciation, manager relationships, employee growth opportunities and work-life balance.

The standard is for engagement surveys to be run anonymously, and to include responses from your entire workforce. You can use the webforms functionality in the app settings to run an anonymous survey. The template is also easy to customize to add more questions like employee demographics.

Track employee engagement against key factors such as employee-manager relationship, communication, growth opportunities and work-life balance.

Basic Employee Profile

Identify your unique areas of improvement and strength

Gather data that will enable you to incorporate D&I in your organizational strategy

Understand barriers to employee progression

There is no such thing as a diverse individual. Diversity is a relational and contextual concept; a set of characteristics drawn from a specific group of people, in a specific setting, measured on a collective whole.

Your organization has its own unique criteria for diversity and inclusion, and your own areas that you need to improve. The best way to start to tackle this is to measure the perception of D&I among the people who live your company culture every day: the employees.

This Diversity & Inclusion benchmarking company survey is created to help you baseline your D&I efforts to create a platform on which you can improve. The survey asks 10 questions about leadership, hiring, training and motivations for diversity that shouldn't take longer than 3 minutes to complete.

Benchmark the levels of diversity and inclusion across the organization in order to start tracking improvements and employee feedback.

Benchmarking Survey - D&I

Boost employee engagement through opportunities for growth and development

Retain talent by giving them the resources and training they need to progress within the organization

Create cross-functional relationships by assigning career mentors who are not the employee's line manager

Growth opportunities are a crucial part of employee engagement. Encourage employees to plan their career progression with the help of mentoring conversations.

The Career Development One-to-One app includes:

Talking points: open-ended questions for the employee to assess their current working life, identify skills they want to learn, ask for coaching and set a timeline for their progression

Comments from the mentor/supervisor on each talking point to provide their expertise and recommendations

An area for both parties to define meeting outcomes and agreed action plans

This template has been created to help employees document their current career path and think about where they want to go next. It's designed as a conversation to take place between the employee and a mentor or supervisor they look up to, who can provide strategic direction on their career plan. Ideally a face to face meeting should take place to discuss what's been written, and then both parties can document the outcomes and actions they agreed on.

Discuss a career progression plan with your mentor/supervisor.

Career Development One-to-Ones

Regularly check in on employee development, engagement and well-being

Promote relationship building between employees and colleagues

Identify problems early on so you can create action plans to improve

Regular check-ins are vital for employee development and for building productive working relationships between supervisors and their direct reports. They're a chance to reflect and take stock of your work, development, wellbeing and satisfaction.

This simple check-ins app allows anyone to set up a meeting with their manager, supervisor, mentor or a colleague. We leave it up to the initiator to create their talking points so that they can have a catch-up with their own agenda.

Setting up the meeting type, date and talking points

An option for the counterpart to accept or decline the meeting

The initiator documents the meeting outcomes and agreed action items

You should further customize this app to allow employees to link other information into the check-in (goals, peer feedback etc.). We have additional apps for Monthly One-to-Ones and Career Development One-to-Ones if you're looking for a more structured set of talking points.

Set a structured agenda and talking points for a meeting with your manager or colleague.

Check-Ins

Create alignment across all departments, teams and individuals

Keep the company's strategic vision top of mind for everyone

Hold leaders accountable to the targets they set

Publishing inspiring, challenging company objectives gives everyone a goalpost to work towards and brings meaning to the work they do for the company.

Company objectives are the overall strategic objectives for the full organization. By making company objectives publicly available to all employees you can help keep them top of mind and give everyone a framework from which to build their own objectives.

The Company Objectives app includes the following:

Objective name and details - keep it short, specific and inspiring

Strategic themes to group your objectives together, such as Growth, People & Culture and Operational Excellence

Key metrics by which the success of the objective will be measured

A section for ongoing updates and progress reports

Company objectives should be owned and updated by the senior leaders in the organization. Employees can align their own goals to these objectives, and can provide their thoughts and updates to the company objective by using the Comments section of the app. This gives everyone a sense of ownership of the company's growth and transparency in what you're all working towards.

Set, track and publish your organizational objectives to drive awareness and ensure everybody is aligned.

Company Objectives

Help team leaders to understand their team's strengths and weaknesses

Limit potential damage from thoughtless feedback by going through a gatekeeper

Help your peers improve and grow through constructive feedback

Reflect on your own strengths and weaknesses

Feedback can be a tricky subject for employees who may not be comfortable giving open criticism to their peers. Give everyone the option to send feedback to a manager, supervisor or HR and ensure their comments are kept confidential.

Peer feedback provides plenty of opportunities to learn from one another, but that feedback isn't always delivered with tact and understanding. If your organization is new to giving feedback or you'd prefer that managers summarize comments and deliver only the summaries to their reports, then confidential feedback is for you.

Three simple start, stop and continue questions to help providers frame their feedback in a specific and constructive way

An assessment grid to easily rate skills, teamwork and professionalism

Once you're more confident that feedback is given in a constructive way, you can install the full 360 Feedback app to sit alongside your confidential feedback process.
