When to use this

You're an HR manager or CHRO running an enterprise-wide engagement survey and you need a solid set of questions covering the key drivers of engagement — without spending hours researching survey design best practices.

What you'll get

A curated list of survey questions covering the main dimensions of employee engagement (e.g. purpose, manager effectiveness, growth, recognition, belonging) — ready to paste into your survey tool or Google Form.

Prompt template

Use this in the Gemini app:

I am an HR manager running our enterprise-wide survey at [company name] to gauge employee engagement and satisfaction. Generate a list of [number] survey questions covering the key dimensions of engagement: purpose and belonging, manager effectiveness, career growth, recognition, and work-life balance. Include a mix of Likert scale and open-text questions.

Fill in the variables:

  • [company name] — helps Gemini ground the tone in your organisation
  • [number] — typical range is 15–30 questions for a quarterly pulse; 40–60 for an annual survey

Customisation tips

  • Add a specific focus: "This year we want extra emphasis on psychological safety and DEI"
  • Specify your survey tool: "Questions should be compatible with a 5-point Likert scale (1 = Strongly Disagree, 5 = Strongly Agree)"
  • Ask for demographic segmentation questions: "Include 3 optional demographic questions (role level, tenure, department)"
  • Request question rationale: "After each question, add a one-line note explaining what it measures"

Iteration suggestions

After Gemini generates the question list:

  1. Make it anonymous → use anonymous-satisfaction-survey to draft a focused anonymous version with answer options
  2. Clean responses later → use survey-data-cleanup once your survey data comes in
  3. Summarise for leadership → use survey-results-leadership-summary to turn results into an executive email
