What Does The People Audit Include?
A people audit includes interviews with employees, managers, and other stakeholders. It also includes surveys that employees complete anonymously. The results of these interviews and surveys are compiled into a report that can be used by management to make decisions about how best to improve the company's employee culture and workplace environment.
Your people audit will include an analysis of the following:
- Your people process and roadmap
- Your people collaboration tools and assets
- Your team and how they feel about each other and the conpany
- Your people reporting
