Survey Bites

Keep these dates and links handy. 

The May 6 survey launch is quickly approaching! Here are key reminders to help your organization prepare: 

1. IMPORTANT: We are unable to process changes leading up to the May 6 survey launch or while the survey is open. This means we cannot add employees or update demographics on the HRIS or survey. We will only be able to accommodate requests for removing employees from the survey.
2. Keep this kiosk link handy! If an employee is unable to find their survey link, or if it was sent to an incorrect or misspelled email address, they can access their survey by clicking this kiosk link and entering their email from the survey as it was submitted as the code.
3. Be on the lookout for a test survey from Leading Edge via Culture Amp <notifications@cultureamp.com> that will be hitting your inbox on April 23. This short survey is shared to help make sure your organization’s servers don’t block notifications from Culture Amp. If you haven’t done so already, we recommend also sharing this article with your IT Department this week.

Additionally – CEOs and survey liaisons will be receiving an email on Tuesday, April 22 about consultant pairings. Please keep an eye out and plan to respond no later than Friday May 2.

Start planning for after-survey offerings!

As we’re quickly approaching our May 6 survey launch date, we want to encourage you to think ahead by holding time on the calendars of appropriate staff who should attend the final two workshops of our  Survey Education Series. 

1. Survey Education Series: The survey’s closed; now what?
   Thursday, June 12 from 12:00 – 1:15pm ET
   This session will provide an overview of how to read and filter your report, prepare for your consultation, and how to thank staff for their participation.
   
   Note: The registration link will be shared with organizations who’ve met the participation threshold after the survey closes.
2. Survey Education Series: Themes and Insights from the 2025 Survey
   Thursday, July 10 from 12:00 – 1:30pm ET
   
   This session will uncover high-level trends from the full cohort of participating organizations, as well as action-planning and accountability strategies. The registration link will be shared with all participating organizations after the survey closes.

Help make sure staff can receive the survey.

When the survey launches on May 6, employees will be sent a unique survey link from “Leading Edge via Culture Amp” at notifications@cultureamp.com to the email address that was submitted on their behalf on the HRIS. 

Allow List:

To help ensure staff receive the email in their inbox, share this article with your IT Department so your organization’s servers don’t block Culture Amp notifications.

Kiosk Link:

If at any point during the survey an employee cannot find their unique link, or if it was sent to a misspelled or incorrect email, they’ll be able to access their survey by clicking this kiosk link and entering their email address as it was submitted on the HRIS as their unique code..

Be sure to keep the kiosk link handy! Once an HRIS is submitted, we’re unable to edit or replace email addresses; and once the survey opens, we’ll be unable to resend survey links.

Set a goal to achieve at least 70% participation!

Staff participation is essential to the success of the survey. Having a high participation rate helps ensure that more voices are heard and that your results reflect an accurate representation of your workplace.  

If you’re looking for ways to encourage participation, start by reviewing this resource of suggestions based on your work arrangement. 

You can also register here to gain tips and strategies from other survey liaisons during our Survey Education Series workshop this Thursday from 1:00pm – 2:00pm ET.

Once the survey opens, you’ll also be able to view your participation rates in real time to help you steer your efforts while the survey is live. 

Tell your staff about the survey.

With less than two months until the survey launches, communicating with your staff early and often is the first step to achieving a high participation rate. 

Here are three things you can do today:

1. Customize these email templates to let your team know why you’ve chosen to participate and when they can expect the survey.
2. Remind staff that their identities and responses are protected in multiple ways, as outlined in our confidentiality guide. 
3. Register here to engage with other survey liaisons around communication and participation strategies next Thursday, March 20 from 1:00 – 2:00 pm ET (10:00 am – 11:00 am PT).
