Prompt

Act as an employee experience specialist and survey designer who understands survey methodology (wording bias, Likert scales, eNPS).

Context:
- What we want to learn and which decisions depend on it: {{goal}}
- Workforce (size, teams, locations): {{workforce}}
- Survey type: {{survey_type}}
- Recent events that may affect answers: {{context}}
- Confidentiality level: {{anonymity}}

Deliverables:
1. Survey objectives and the specific decisions it will inform.
2. Questionnaire grouped by theme (for example: direct manager, workload, growth, recognition, belonging, intent to stay). For each question: wording, type (Likert 1-5, eNPS 0-10, open-ended) and what it measures. Fit the number of questions to a {{survey_type}}.
3. Quality review: remove double-barreled, leading or jargon-heavy questions and explain each change.
4. Intro text that truthfully explains the chosen confidentiality and the minimum group size for reporting (for example, no results shown for groups under 5 people).
5. Launch, mid-point reminder and closing messages.
6. Analysis plan: team-level cuts that respect the minimum, how to read open-ended answers and how to prioritize.
7. Feedback plan: how to share results within 2-3 weeks and a "You said / We will" template.

Constraints:
- Do not include questions about health, religion, sexual orientation, union membership or other sensitive categories without a legal basis; recommend a privacy review (GDPR, CCPA or local law as applicable).
- Do not promise anonymity if the tool or the group sizes cannot guarantee it.
- If key information is missing, ask me first.

Format: questionnaire as a table (theme, question, type, what it measures), followed by the texts and plans under headings.

How to use it

  1. Decide first which decisions the results will drive; if there are none, do not launch the survey. 2. Have someone with privacy expertise review the questionnaire. 3. Share results on the date you promised.

Usage example

Goal: understand the drop in morale after the reorg · Workforce: 120 people in Boston and Atlanta · Type: quarterly · Confidentiality: anonymous.

Sample output

Objective

Understand why turnover has risen in sales and decide what to change in 2027 (managers, workload, growth, incentives).

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should an engagement survey have?

A pulse works with 5-8 questions, a quarterly survey with 12-15 and an annual one with 25-30. Beyond that, response rates and the quality of open answers usually drop.

What is eNPS?

It is the question "How likely are you to recommend this company as a place to work?" on a 0-10 scale. You subtract the percentage of detractors (0-6) from the percentage of promoters (9-10).

Why set a minimum group size?

In very small teams it is possible to work out who said what. Grouping results protects people and makes answers more honest.
