Sondaggi sul polso dei dipendenti:

Si tratta di brevi sondaggi che possono essere inviati frequentemente per verificare rapidamente cosa pensano i vostri dipendenti di un argomento. Il sondaggio comprende un numero ridotto di domande (non più di 10) per ottenere rapidamente le informazioni. Possono essere somministrati a intervalli regolari (mensili/settimanali/trimestrali).

Incontri individuali:

Organizzare riunioni periodiche di un'ora per una chiacchierata informale con ogni membro del team è un modo eccellente per farsi un'idea reale di ciò che sta accadendo. Poiché si tratta di una conversazione sicura e privata, aiuta a ottenere maggiori dettagli su un problema.

eNPS:

L'eNPS (employee Net Promoter score) è uno dei metodi più semplici ma efficaci per valutare l'opinione dei dipendenti sulla vostra azienda. Include una domanda intrigante che misura la fedeltà. Un esempio di domande eNPS è il seguente: Quanto è probabile che raccomandi la nostra azienda ad altri? I dipendenti rispondono al sondaggio eNPS su una scala da 1 a 10, dove 10 indica che è "altamente probabile" che raccomandino l'azienda e 1 indica che è "altamente improbabile" che la raccomandino.

In base alle risposte, i dipendenti possono essere classificati in tre diverse categorie:

Promotori
Dipendenti che hanno risposto positivamente o sono d'accordo.
Detrattori
Dipendenti che hanno reagito negativamente o in disaccordo.
Passivi
I dipendenti che sono rimasti neutrali nelle loro risposte.
