When to use it

Use the template when the answers can change a decision.

  • For periodic team pulses
  • After an employee lifecycle moment
  • When anonymity can improve candor

  • State clearly how responses will be used
  • Avoid collecting identity unless the workflow needs it
  • Keep demographic questions optional unless essential
Why these questions?

This template intentionally mixes structured answers with a small amount of open text. Structured questions make patterns easier to compare; open text gives respondents room to explain what a score alone cannot.
