How to Take Action After Your Employee Survey

Employee Surveys are a tool to drive positive change. Designed strategically for your organization, they solicit the data leadership needs to make better decisions and to focus action efforts.

Unfortunately, too often employee surveys are seen as the final destination for organizations soliciting feedback. Yet merely collecting feedback isn’t sufficient; you need to fully understand the data, put it into the context of your unique organization, and create Action Plans around the items that are most likely to have an impact.

This isn’t easy, which is why so many organizations struggle. To make it more attainable, we’re introducing a 3-part web series focused on action. These short videos will cover issues such as where to focus your efforts, how to empower your people to act, maintaining momentum long after a survey closes, and so much more.
