Internal Communications Survey

Which channels reach people, what gets missed, and how informed employees actually feel.

4 questions · 1 page · about 2 minutes to answer · fully editable after you start

Leadership thinks it communicated; employees think otherwise – this survey measures the gap. It checks how informed people feel about the things that matter (strategy, changes affecting their work, wins), which channels they actually read, and where important information gets lost.

The channel matrix is the budget saver: it routinely shows the lovingly produced newsletter going unread while the scrappy team standup carries the real signal. Rebalance toward the channels people actually consume.
