Employee Feedback Can Give
Your Company a Significant Competitive Edge
Employees
are in a unique position to observe the day-to-day functioning of
your organization. Yet many companies do not take the simple step
of asking employees for systematic, structured feedback.
Here
are just a few of the vitally important questions a well-designed
employee survey can answer:
-
What
motivates your strongest employees to do their best?
-
Do
your employees have the tools, skills, and authority they need
to create magic for their customers?
-
Do
your employees have the opportunity to use their strengths every
day at work?
-
Do
your employees believe it is "safe" to report illegal,
unethical, or discriminatory behavior?
-
Do
your employees believe your company provides growth opportunities
as well as training and development to support their career
aspirations?
-
Do
your employees have faith in the company's direction and leadership?
-
What
percentage of your employees are actively seeking positions
outside the company?
-
What
can you do to keep your best employees when your competitors
start hiring again?
We
help small to medium-sized organizations that have a sincere desire
to obtain high-quality, relevant employee feedback, but are not
in a position to invest tens of thousands of dollars in custom survey
design, implementation, and analysis.
A
customized or semi-customized survey helps to ensure that your survey
addresses current hot-button issues. We'll work with you to build
a survey based on your unique issues and culture.
"Gainen Surveys helped us construct a
survey that really got to the heart of our HR issues."

Customization need
not be expensive.
We
recognize the value of comprehensive custom survey development.
The process often involve extensive pre-survey interviews and employee
focus groups. These highly interactive methods convey the message
that your organization values employee participation, open communication,
and collaboration. At the same time, we recognize that an in-depth
design process may exceed the time and resources available to HR
and OD managers already pressed to do more with less.
We work with you
to streamline your survey development phase, for example, by:
- Helping you
focus your survey on your most pressing business concerns
- Building
on existing resources to accelerate the design process (our survey
models, your prior surveys, informal pre-surveys by email, online
focus groups)
- Coaching
your internal team to do the initial design
- Providing
feedback on a draft survey designed by your internal team
After
the survey, we will extract the full meaning of your results and
present concise, high-impact reports.
We
will conduct a thorough statistical analysis and present key results
in a concise, highly visual format to point out key strengths, potential
strengths and vulnerabilities, and top priorities for improvement.

We
will also prepare a complete set of tables and charts, with breakdowns
for specific departments. Or you may choose to prepare your own
reports.

The
