Culture LeadersShow Notes
Have you ever wondered what happens to your survey data after you submit your response? In this episode, we will dive deep into the world of employee experience data and how Culture Amp turns data into insights.
Join us as we explore what happens when one individual responds to a company engagement survey. First, we’ll share how the company uses it. Then we’ll share how this one response goes on a journey to land in the largest employee data lake where Culture Amp can use that response to answer questions like “what impact does engagement have on retaining customers?” and “what is the best performance rating scale?”
This episode will be the first in a series as we explore the 34 million data points that make up Culture Amp's data lake. Before we explore the depths of Culture Amp's research, this episode will provide all listeners with the foundations of people analytics and data collection.
