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
- 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).
Questionnaire (excerpt)
| Theme | Question | Type | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| Direct manager | My manager gives me useful feedback at least once a month. | Likert 1-5 | Feedback quality |
| Workload | My sales targets are achievable with the resources I have. | Likert 1-5 | Perceived workload |
| Growth | I see a clear path to grow here over the next two years. | Likert 1-5 | Development |
| Recent change | Since September, I understand the sales team's priorities better. | Likert 1-5 | Effect of the new head of sales |
| Intent to stay | How likely are you to recommend working here to a friend? | eNPS 0-10 | Loyalty |
| Open | What would you change first to make you want to stay? | Open-ended | Retention levers |
Quality review
- ~~"Does your manager support and recognize you?"~~ → split into two: it was double-barreled.

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.
