Pre-Survey Communication sent by your organization
TIP:This letter should be from your organization’s CEO or another senior representative. The letter "positions" the survey/program and serves as an alert so that employees do not delete the survey invitation email. Organizations that pre-communicate the survey typically have significantly higher response rates.
Also, it is recommended that you send an additional reminder to your employees during the survey period. A sample of this communication is also included here.
