Once you have reviewed your data, make sure to recognize and celebrate strengths first. This will allow your team to continue to be successful in areas that are creating engagement!
Pick one to three survey items to discuss with your team. Consider:
- Which issues are the most important to address, given our goals and priorities today?
- Which issues will get in our way if we don’t address them?
- Which issues are not a high priority, even if they could use improvement?
- For issues that cannot by addressed, schedule a team meeting or uninterrupted one-on-one time to gather context about employee engagement data and ask questions about their experiences.
The goal of the discussion is not to problem solve, rather to clarify and create a deeper understanding of the most important issues and also the issues that will keep your team from achieving its goals if left unaddressed.
