Employee Motivation Survey
Employee surveys have a range of advantages. If undertaken properly, even if they confirm that organization is far from perfect, they simultaneously help to identify those areas that require attention and effort by highlighting issues of both individual and common concern. Often, more detailed surveys targeting even more specific areas are required to follow up the lead that an initial employee motivation survey uncovers. So, for example, a general survey may show that employees in a specific department are unhappy, but the exact reasons behind their collective dissatisfaction may be unclear. A follow-up survey, specifically targeted to that department may then help reveal the actual causes. So when any organization regularly undertakes employee surveys and systematically addresses the issues thereby identified, they are bound to see the benefits reflected not only in subsequent survey responses but also in overall company productivity.
Employee Motivation Surveys also provide the perfect opportunity to the management to have their perspectives and assumptions about the functioning of their organization to be corroborated or suitably qualified by the responses of their employees. It provides an effective platform for the overall and democratic appraisal of the entire organization and if a suitable transparency is able to be maintained in this regard, this ensures the establishment of a secured rapport and productive communication between the employer and the employees which in turn conduces to the overall benefit of the organization.
Employee motivation surveys therefore offer both direct and indirect benefits for the company: not only to the management but also the employees as well as to the customers in turn.
The most critically important factor for employee motivation in the workplace has been found to be employee recognition. So, the surest way to retain highly motivated employees while also encouraging others to perform better is to make it a general point of principle to select and reward outstanding performers, and to consistently recognize their efforts and contributions generously in public.
The COI (Centre for Organizational Innovation) Group is an Australian organization based in Sydney responsible for designing a tool called the OEP (Organizational Effectiveness Profiling) which has made the work of gauging and maintaining employee motivation that much easier.
The salient features of this OEP tool are:
• Diagnostics that investigate all important organizational issues (over and above the traditional and ineffective emphasis on only cultural issues)
