The purpose of the survey is to give your company valuable feedback about how its employees feel about their jobs, their managers and overall company culture.
Below is a quick overview of how the survey works. If you have additional questions, please send them to me via email at ddiamond@bizimprovement.com and I’ll make sure to get you the answers you need.

Quick Overview
There is no cost to do the survey.
The survey is completely anonymous - no individual answers are ever shared.
You invite your team members directly - we send you a link to the survey to send to your team.
The survey takes about 20 minutes to complete.
Your team’s answers are summarized and crafted into a comprehensive report that’s sent to the CEO.
To give you a broader context, your team’s data will be compared to other companies of your size and to all the companies that have taken the survey over the last several years. This gives you get a sense of how your team assesses their jobs, their managers, and the company culture compared to other companies.
The survey asks your team the following:
To agree or disagree with about 50 statements about their jobs, their manager, and the company culture. Each question has an optional comment section.
To tell us which statements are important to them.
Employee Net Promotor Score.
One open-ended question.
A snapshot of one of the several reports you get at the conclusion of the survey, the Summary report, appears below.
The Summary Report compares your company to all the companies who have participated in the survey over the last several years. The columns show the following information:
Current Overall Score: How your company scored on the survey overall. Max score 100.
Fast Facts: Some quick information about your current score and current participation compared to your most recent previous survey. If this is your first survey, you won’t see the comparison information.
Similar Size Company Comparison Group: We compare your scores throughout the reports to Similar Size Companies. This section tells you how many companies you were compared against and the company size.
Survey Background
I have a core belief that great companies have strong relationships with their clients, employees, and shareholders, all at the same time. I’m passionate about helping companies become great no matter their size.
Especially for people-centric businesses (where interactions and relationships between your staff and your clients are essential), your client’s satisfaction will be proportional to your staff’s engagement.
This culture & engagement survey allows teams of all sizes to measure their relationship with their staff.
Survey Purpose
Survey reports are designed to help your team engage in healthy discussions that generate ideas you can put into action. Culture and engagement are squishy – hard to measure/quantify exactly. But focused attention on real collaboration between leaders and staff does make real and often lasting improvement possible.
My hope is that this survey becomes a catalyst for growth and improvement in the companies that participate. Read on to get a sense of how it works.
How It Works
After your company signs up, your Survey Administrator gets a unique link for your company. You send the link to all of you staff members (leaders and CEO included!). If you choose, you can also send the link to key contractors who operate much like staff. We send you weekly updates telling you how many people have participated so you can send reminders to your staff until everyone has answered.
What Is the Format of the Survey?
The survey asks each participant to indicate whether they agree or disagree with about 50 statements about their jobs, their manager, and the company. Participants can optionally provide a comment on each statement to explain their answers or make a suggestion. There are also a few open-ended questions at the end of the survey to allow people to provide free-form comments/ideas/suggestions. The survey takes people on average 20 minutes to complete.
Can I See the Survey Before I Commit?
Please send us an email at ddiamond@bizimprovement.com if you would like to see a copy of the survey.
Is the Survey Anonymous?
Yes - the survey is completely anonymous. Everyone at your company will use the same link so there's no way to identify anyone's specific answers. Further, no individual answers will ever be shared - all results will summarize the teams' answers together to make it impossible to see any one person's answers.
How Will I Know How Many of Our Staff Took the Survey While It’s Open?
While the survey is open, you will get updates every week stating how many people have completed the survey for your team. You can then keep your team updated and keep encouraging them to participate if they haven’t already.
We suggest that you ask participants to take the survey at their earliest convenience - teams who get to it early usually have higher participation, which gives them a full picture of the opinions of their team members.
What Are the Advantages of Having Business Improvement LLC conduct this survey?
Some companies do their own employee surveys and that’s great. But having a third-party company can help in several ways:
Often staff trust that their answers will truly be anonymous if the survey is administered by a third party.
By opening this survey up to many companies, we can offer comparisons between your company’s results and the results of other companies of about your size.
Because we’ve been doing this survey for years, we can share with you where you excel and where you need work based on how other companies have answered the same questions.
What Do The Survey Results Look Like?
We send you two reports when the survey closes. Examples of each are linked below:
Is there a reason I shouldn’t take the Survey?
We recommend this survey to most teams, however, there are two scenarios taking this survey might not be for you
1. If you've recently completed another culture survey (within the last 3 months). We don't want you to over-survey your team.
2. If your company is not in a place to take action on the survey results. If you can't make improvements based on your teams' opinions, it's better not to ask.
What is the Cost of the Survey?
It’s free! Really. We mean it.
