Employee Engagement ROI Analysis

Step 1: Get Buy-In

First things first, you need to get leadership buy-in to launch and act on the results. Without buy-in, most employee survey initiatives may do more harm than good. 

We understand that gaining buy-in can be challenging! It's a two-part process. It begins with why it's important, and how you can achieve it! 

Having a plan is critical, so we developed the Employee Engagement ROI Analysis. A researched-based tool that will help you get the support you need. 

Here's how you can get buy-in with the ROI Analysis: 

Step 2: Implement

Employee surveys are an essential tool for increasing engagement, yet they're often misused. Without an implementation plan in place, time is most likely wasted and results fall flat.

Start by asking the right questions to build a plan that aligns with the outcomes you want to achieve:

Step 3: Launch

Now it's time to prepare for your survey launch!

This is a common roadblock that has the biggest impact on employee participation, which will make or break the quality of your results.

Here are a few key questions you should have answers to before you launch: 

  • How are we introducing and marketing the survey to ignite excitement and encourage honest feedback?
  • Does our leadership and management team understand the purpose and importance of the survey (they hold the most influence over participation)?
  • How do we ensure responses are truly 100% anonymous and confidential?
  • When are we going to share the results with leadership, management, and employees? (Hint: set dates and promote it so everyone knows how action will be taken). 
  • What will leadership do with the feedback? (Be specific, will you share an action plan?)

 

Step 4: Take Action

Once the results are in, don't stop there! One of the BIGGEST mistakes any organization can make is conducting a survey and then neglecting to share and take action on the findings.
 
This is a crucial time in the survey process, and should never be overlooked - even if the feedback is positive and you feel like you're in great shape.
 
Get started with these questions: 
Employees who feel their voice is heard are 4.6 times more likely to feel empowered to perform their best work.

We understand that some surveys require you to comb through and understand all the data on your own. It's VERY time-consuming, we know. (That's why our #BeHeard Report does the heavy lifting for you).

But, regardless of the survey you use, employees need to know that their feedback was heard and action will be taken. This is key to elevating employee engagement and future participation!
