Engagement survey and dashboard in one evening

Build a survey from ready-made questions, run it in Google Forms or a spreadsheet, paste the answers here — and get a dashboard: engagement index, eNPS, strong themes, weak spots by department and a report text for leadership.

No sign-up. Employee answers are processed in your browser and are not sent anywhere.

Pick the survey themes

Each theme has three statements. An employee rates agreement on a scale from 1 to 5. Themes are not shown in the survey itself — they are for reading the answers.

A survey in a minute: a prompt for Google Forms and Microsoft Forms

Both services can build a form from a description. Copy the prompt, paste it into the form assistant — and you get a ready survey with the same questions and scales. Check the questions and send the link to employees.

The assistant is not included in every Google and Microsoft plan. If you do not have it, take the survey text below and build the form by hand.

Paste the headers into the first row of Google Sheets or Excel: each row below is one employee. In a form, keep the question titles word for word — then step 2 recognizes the answers on its own.

Paste the table of answers

In Google Sheets or Excel, select the whole table including the header row, copy it and paste it here. Answers are numbers from 1 to 5 or the scale labels themselves. A “Department” column is optional, but with it you get a breakdown by department.

The dashboard appears once there are answers

Paste a table in step two — or see what it looks like on an example.

This is an example on made-up answers. Paste your own table in step 2 and the numbers will recalculate.

      Where to start: the two weakest themes

      Check the survey against HR metrics

      A survey shows what people say. These three metrics show what they do. Enter the numbers for the period; the previous period is there to show the direction.

      This periodPrevious period
      Average headcount
      Left voluntarily
      Left in total
      Days absent, total
      Working days in the period
      How to read the numbers. The index is the share of “agree” and “strongly agree” answers among all answers. It is not a grade for the company and not a market benchmark: compare it with your own previous survey and across themes. eNPS reading: above 0 is acceptable, 10 to 30 is good, above 30 is excellent.

      How it works

      How to measure engagement

      There is no single engagement number: you measure it with a survey and check it against what people actually do. This tool covers both. First you build a survey from ready-made statements and run it in Google Forms, Microsoft Forms or a spreadsheet. Then you paste the answers and get a dashboard.

      The dashboard shows the engagement index, eNPS, themes from strongest to weakest, a breakdown by department, the strongest and weakest statements and first actions for the two weakest themes. Next to it are three HR metrics that confirm or contradict the survey: voluntary turnover, retention and absenteeism.

      What the dashboard calculates

      Engagement index
      The share of “agree” and “strongly agree” answers among all answers.
      eNPS
      Percent of promoters (scores 9–10) minus percent of detractors (scores 0–6).
      Voluntary turnover
      People who left voluntarily ÷ average headcount for the period.
      Absenteeism
      Days absent ÷ (headcount × working days in the period).

      Questions about the survey

      How do you measure employee engagement?

      Run an anonymous survey with statements grouped by theme — manager, recognition, growth, workload and others — and count the share of favorable answers. Then check the result against behavior: voluntary turnover, retention and absenteeism.

      How many questions should an engagement survey have?

      Here each theme has three statements. The full survey of eight themes is 26 questions and takes about six minutes. For a first survey, start with four or five themes.

      What is eNPS and how is it calculated?

      It is the answer to “How likely are you to recommend the company as a place to work?” on a scale from 0 to 10. eNPS = percent of promoters (9–10) minus percent of detractors (0–6). Above 0 is acceptable, 10 to 30 is good, above 30 is excellent.

      How do I build the survey quickly in Google Forms or Microsoft Forms?

      Copy the prompt in step one and paste it into the form assistant — it builds the survey with the same questions and scales. The assistant is not in every plan; without it, build the form by hand from the survey text.

      Is it safe to paste employee answers here?

      Yes. The table is processed in your browser and is not sent anywhere. Departments with fewer than five answers are hidden on the dashboard so nobody can guess who said what.

      What do I do with the survey results?

      Tell the team what you heard and pick one or two weak themes. The dashboard suggests first actions for each. Repeat the survey with the same questions in three to six months and compare the numbers.
