Deploying employee surveys and acting on them demonstrate your commitment to employees. People appreciate their voices being heard and seeing the changes they initiate. However, most employee surveys are structured or analyzed in ways that oversimplify or distort the meaning or intent of employee feedback. The outcomes? You overlook true employee concerns, or you build an employee experience or invest in action plans that are irrelevant to what employees need or want. These mistakes could compromise employee trust, loyalty, and motivation. DO survey frequently, but don’t be annoying.
