Enquêtes sur le pouls des employés :

Il s'agit d'enquêtes courtes qui peuvent être envoyées fréquemment pour vérifier rapidement ce que vos employés pensent d'un sujet. L'enquête comprend moins de questions (pas plus de 10) afin d'obtenir rapidement des informations. Elles peuvent être administrées à intervalles réguliers (mensuels/hebdomadaires/trimestriels).

Rencontres individuelles :

Organiser périodiquement des réunions d'une heure pour discuter de manière informelle avec chaque membre de l'équipe est un excellent moyen de se faire une idée précise de ce qui se passe avec eux. Comme il s'agit d'une conversation sûre et privée, elle vous permet d'obtenir de meilleurs détails sur un problème.

eNPS :

L'eNPS (employee Net Promoter score) est l'un des moyens les plus simples et les plus efficaces d'évaluer l'opinion de vos employés sur votre entreprise. Il comprend une question intrigante qui permet d'évaluer la loyauté. Voici un exemple de questions posées dans le cadre de l'eNPS Quelle est la probabilité que vous recommandiez notre entreprise à d'autres personnes ? Les employés répondent à l'enquête eNPS sur une échelle de 1 à 10, où 10 signifie qu'ils sont "très susceptibles" de recommander l'entreprise et 1 signifie qu'ils sont "très peu susceptibles" de la recommander.

Sur la base des réponses, les salariés peuvent être classés dans trois catégories différentes :

Promoteurs
Employés qui ont répondu positivement ou qui sont d'accord.
Détracteurs
Employés qui ont réagi négativement ou qui ont exprimé leur désaccord.
Passives
Les employés qui sont restés neutres dans leurs réponses.
