WHY CHOOSE THE ENJOYWORK SURVEY

ENJOYWORK SURVEYA simple, practical and cost effective alternative to a traditional engagement survey.

Enjoywork measures work related enjoyment. You learn what causes it, what gets in the way and the real cost of misery.

™

Focus on what matters most.Engagement surveys are not engaging. Too many meaningless questions and dull-as-dishwater slides. The average person enjoys less than half their working day. The other half is spent in misery, which is costly and avoidable when you know what to fix.

Analyse what people say - not what they click.Words have more impact than averages and dull-as-dishwater statistics. With our simpler approach leaders can facilitate a conversation with team members about what they think and feel.

Based on a lot of research and a little common sense.The Enjoywork Survey has an immediate and lasting impact because new research shows enjoyment correlates positively to performance, productivity, motivation and retention.
