Employee surveys may have some hurdles that can be annoying, or sometimes downright obstructive. We are currently working on employee surveys for a new intranet project, and this is my contribution to the conceptualization phase. If you are in a similar situation, the following thoughts and examples may be useful.
An intranet is a company’s image. Right now, things are …
When introducing an intranet, there are often fundamental misunderstandings with the members of the employee representative group or worker’s council.
