Collect employee feedback with these innovative ideas companies are using as an alternative to sending emails with survey links.

Frustrated by low morale and struggling to get real feedback? Traditional email surveys often fall short in capturing the true employee experience.

SurveyStance has a modern way companies can implement an employee feedback survey and capture feedback, ideas, suggestions and more from employees.  An in depth survey sent to associates via email is the traditional approach we see companies take… or asking the tough questions in exit interviews when its too late.

Sure, the traditional email survey may still work for detailed annual surveys, but let’s bring you up to speed on how you could be capturing feedback that will make a difference. Feedback Kiosks are the newest way companies are capturing real time feedback from employees on an ongoing basis. Why?  Because they are quick and easy, convenient and fun!

 The Future of Employee Feedback Surveys – Feedback Kiosk Solutions

  • Ease of Use: User-friendly terminals make it incredibly simple for employees to provide feedback. Ease of use goes up and so do Response Rates.

  • Quick Feedback: Kiosks are strategically placed around the office, enabling employees to quickly share their thoughts on various topics, such as “Do you feel valued at XYZ Company?

  • Anonymity: Assured anonymity encourages honest and candid responses, fostering a culture of open and honest communication.

  • Real-time Reporting: Feedback is accessible within to a secure web-based portal in real-time, providing immediate insights into employee sentiment.

  • Data Analysis: User-friendly dashboards and reports allow teams to easily see feedback trends and identify areas for improvement.

How do I get anonymous employee feedback?

Employee feedback really should be anonymous and that is one of the best parts of the Employee Feedback Kiosks. Employees will be more truthful when giving feedback about their managers if they know the feedback is anonymous. Studies have shown that even email surveys that claim ‘anonymous’ still come with a level of employee skepticism. By capturing employee engagement feedback on a kiosk can help build employee/manager trust and confidence.

Co-Founder and COO of Tutor the People, Eliza Nimmich, has been focused on capturing employee feedback and has experienced similar findings.

Through engaging with the team and ensuring the input remains confidential, we have seen an increase in completion rates. Sharing the conclusions summary and acting on feedback will guarantee that subsequent surveys are indeed well received.

Matt Scott, owner of Termite Survey, asks employees “what they like most and like least about their work, what holds them in the business and what will inspire them to pursue other options”. This allows managers to use that information to build ‘stay plans’ for the best performers. This strategy helps increase retention and prevents turnover. Matt has been a business owner in Silver Springs, Maryland for more than 10 years and continues to focus on employee feedback surveys for continuous improvement.

How do you gauge employee satisfaction?

Ravi Parikh, CEO of RoverPass, emphasizes the importance of proactive feedback gathering. He shared that a highly effective strategy for understanding employee sentiment was to feature employee quotes on the company’s ‘About Us’ page. By simply asking employees, ‘What do you like about working here?’, RoverPass fostered a positive and engaging employee experience. As Parikh aptly states, ‘You certainly don’t want to wait until they are an ex-employee and bad mouth the company on Glassdoor.

The employee satisfaction survey kiosks allow the admin user to setup multiple questions.  The survey admin can control everything from the web portal and can be done in various parts of the business.  Key stake holders will receive a detailed employee gauge survey report each week and month.

Where to use an Employee Feedback Survey?

An Employee feedback survey is key when trying to keep a pulse on employee happiness at all levels. This includes front line employee feedback, feedback about managers and leadership teams and even feedback about specific meetings that are being held (All Hand Meeting Feedback, Team Meeting Feedback).

We have found it best to keep the feedback loop open for employee feedback anytime the associates have something to share.  Waiting for a quarterly or worse an annual survey limits the results to how happy the employee was in the point of time.
