We've never had so many great and easy to use survey tools, but just because you can physically do something it doesn't mean you can do it well.
That's the view of internal measurement and survey expert Angela Sinickas, and how right she is. The point of any survey is to gather accurate data, whether in a political context it's trying to find out how candidates or parties are doing in an election, or, in an employee survey, testing what sentiment is like on a particular issue.
But, of course, the information gathered can be fundamentally influenced by the questions asked, their precise wording and how they are phrased. People conducting employee surveys think they know this, but still they make the same mistakes, and then get dodgy data and skewed results.
To help you avoid these pitfalls and learn how to do it right, we've compiled these Top Tips from Angela's webinar for Poppulo, Getting the most out of surveys.

In today’s competitive business landscape, it’s increasingly important to showcase the impact and value of internal communication efforts. IC teams that use data-driven strategies can ensure their communications contribute to business success—and, most importantly, that they have the proof to back it up.
It’s time for a strategic communications reset. Strategic focus is key to company success, yet half of internal comms executives say they don’t strategize to deliver their top priorities.
The debate over the return to the office remains divided, with opinions on whether to return—or in what capacity to return—split across the board. Regardless of whether the return is mandatory or voluntary, it will be doomed if the office experience is subpar. If the in-person environment fails to meet employees’ needs and expectations, it will inevitably lead to low morale and poor engagement, making it difficult to retain and attract top talent.
