Companies are moving beyond sole reliance on traditional surveys to more agile listening strategies, driven by advances in technology. In response to current events, we have created some new custom surveys that will allow you to assess your employee’s needs.
Pulse survey
Sometimes you need employee data quickly. These are short surveys that provide access to employee opinions and reaction to events. We recommend sending these weekly. Here are some of our pulse surveys:
Mood – How do you feel?
This tracks mood and sleep every time an employee logs into their Cognisess account. It builds a picture of the relationship between mood, sleep and productivity.
Ask Me (work related) video diary
This is to track or record how an employee is feeling using the Ask Me video tool. It can be used for appraisal, ideas and feedback. Alongside listening to their feedback, you have the option to view how the person is truly feeling. The machine vision used by our DeepLearn™ uses highly advanced algorithms that read from 27+ points on the face. It tracks the differences of the positions over time to establish a picture of the emotion that is being expressed by a person.
Employee survey
We recommend sending these on a monthly basis. These will give you a thorough insight into your employees and culture. Here are a few of our new employee surveys.
Leadership Check in
This template is for the executive leadership team to get a pulse on their employees to make sure they have the support they need while working from home during the Covid19 (Coronavirus) pandemic.
Listening in challenging times
This template is for employees to understand trends and changes over time and can be used to monitor engagement. Questions include: What are the biggest challenges you anticipate you will have in meeting your customers’ needs? And, my manager makes an effort to keep in touch with me when I’m working from home.
Coping in a new world
This template is for employees and how they adapt to changes to working from home. Questions include: Are you meeting set criteria working from home?, Are you finding new ways to work efficiently? And, do you have a similar routine/structure as you did at work?
Health and wellbeing
Employer response to COVID-19
This template is for employees and relates to Covid-19 and working in a different way. Sample questions include: What policies/aspects do you feel have worked during this time? And what level of flexibility is provided by your organisation when it comes to getting work done?
Mental Wellbeing
Checking in on your people in this challenging time is important. A dip in work performance may be due to low mood instead of lack of work ethic. This template is for employees and focuses on areas of job satisfaction, personal & mental wellbeing.
You can add your own questions, allowing you to ask the questions that are valuable to your organisation.
