PeopleScan: Employee Pulsing Technology
PeopleScan is a technology that facilitates real time ‘pulsing’ of employee condition to inform management decision-making. Using the PeopleScan pulse survey system, metrics are established that are reliable predictors of organisation success. Different from traditional surveys, PeopleScan takes frequent snapshots to assess metrics and generate trends that allow variations to be tracked at the organisation, department, team and even individual level whilst maintaining confidentiality.
PeopleScan technology delivers the following advantages:
- Valuable whether organisations are in a period of stability or undergoing large-scale change
- Delivers ‘real time’ information on employee condition
- Generates data that is quantifiable and measures the indicators most important to leaders
- Managers readily own the data from the pulse survey and know where to focus resources and take action to optimise employee motivation and effectiveness
- Easily customised to craft questions and metrics, including use of open-ended comments
- By its very design, the pulse survey only take a few minutes for employees to complete.
- Requires minimal implementation; a simple file consisting of employees' email and demographic information is all that is required
- Priced to allow for a wide range of uses in organisations of all sizes
- Keeps leaders informed so they can share trends and have more effective real-time discussions with employees, as one manager said:
"Using PeopleScan data in our meetings saves time because it doesn't take half of the meeting for employees to open up and talk about the important issues. The real concerns are revealed in the data and serve as a guide for keeping our meetings on track."
