Overview

The interplay of University culture and employee engagement is at the heart of the employee experience. Culture, often referred to as an organization鈥檚 鈥減ersonality,鈥 is based on the values and vision of the organization. At USF, our core values of Inquiry, Innovation, Integrity, and Inclusion are outlined in the 新澳门六合彩内幕信息strategic plan. Engaged employees believe in these values and the vision of the organization. They see that they are real throughout all levels of the University and that their work contributes to a greater good.

OUR EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT SURVEY

Be Heard Employee Engagement Survey with image of bull and talk bubbles

To measure the key metrics of employee engagement, we have contracted Workforce Science Associates (WSA), a qualified, third-party survey organization working in collaboration with Qualtrics. The survey has been piloted with several groups, and is continuing to be introduced in small bursts throughout the university. Going forward, versions of survey will be used on a regular basis to measure progress toward identified improvement goals. Participation is voluntary and results are confidential. The university only receives the aggregated results.  新澳门六合彩内幕信息will not have access to data that identifies specific employee responses.

  • We want to hear from you! University employees are encouraged to participate in the  Employee Engagement Survey. The survey is confidential and your feedback will influence our work environment, culture and processes to help the university achieve success. The survey supports USF鈥檚 strategic plan by fostering a positive employee experience that embraces a dynamic workplace environment and brings us closer to becoming a best place to work. See USF's strategic plan here.

  • Survey Timing Pilot and small-scale surveys are rolling out on a continued basis. Contact HR-EmployeeEngagement@usf.edu for further information.

  • Why Conduct an Employee Engagement Survey?
    The survey results will allow university leaders to recognize successes and understand areas of opportunity. Topics explored will include engagement, recognition, communication, growth and development, job satisfaction, belonging and culture. The feedback will help the university and individual units/departments to prioritize what matters most to our workforce. 

  • Taking the Survey
    • If your unit is participating in a survey, be on the lookout for an email with the subject 鈥溞掳拿帕喜誓谀恍畔ngagement Survey鈥 with instructions. The email will come from Qualtrics on behalf of the university.
    • The survey will take about 5鈥10 minutes and your responses will be confidential.
