How do I send out a Leadership Survey?

Creating a solid and action focused feedback loop is pivotal to creating and maintaining an engaged workforce. WorkCompass includes surveys that allow your teams to be candid open and honest about their Managers and advise ways for them to improve. Managers can use this information to create improvement plans for themselves and build trust with their team. This can be done very easily through the Leadership Survey function. 

Sending the Leadership Survey

Managers and Admins can send out leadership surveys to anyone that has logged into a WorkCompass account in their platform by following the steps below: 

  1. At the top of the page click on Surveys, and then click on Manage leadership survey
  2. Click the +Add Survey button in the bottom right corner
  3. Customize the message and select the manager(s) whose direct reports will be receiving the survey


  1. You will be able to see how many responses you have received by clicking on Surveys, then clicking on “Manage Leadership Survey”.

    As you can see from the screenshot below, you will also see the survey progress on the bottom right-hand side of your Home page.

    There is also an option to resend the Leadership survey to employees who have not completed it, by clicking on the “Resend Surveys” button. 

Survey Questions

How to view and interpret leadership survey results

After the Managers' direct reports have completed the survey, each direct report is asked to provide a suggestion for any areas in which they rated their Manager lowest.

When the survey closes, Managers will only see three suggestions in total. The survey engine picks the three that cumulatively are rated the lowest.

In order to see the results, Managers can click “Follow up on your Leadership Survey” on their Home page, as highlighted below:

For customers who are using the new Home dashboard UI, you can click on the badge notification highlighted in the first screenshot below and select the Leadership Survey - Follow Up task (highlighted in the second screenshot):

Step 1: Click the badge notification

Step 2: Click 'Leadership Survey - Follow up'

On the next page, the Manager will be able to commit to the improvement initiatives suggested by their direct reports, or create their own improvement initiatives based on the suggestions their direct reports have provided.

To commit to the improvement initiatives, click the button Commit to these improvements as highlighted below. 

Once the Manager has committed to the improvement initiatives , they will be brought to the profile page where they can see them under the Current Improvement Initiatives section.

These improvement initiatives allow you as a Manager to see which areas you are weakest in, according to your direct report.
