Section 1: COMMUNICATION
What are the first 5 notifications / communications you want to deliver? With what frequency? Do you want to include recognitions, reminders, shoutouts and announcements?
Section 2: PARTICIPATION
Create 5 opinion Polls by identifying a focused topic where you want to gauge preferences, perceptions, or decisions—such as preferred actions or viewpoints on an issue. Then craft a clear, neutral question that invites a specific choice (e.g., “Where should we go for our next off-site?”). Provide 3 to 5 distinct options that cover the range of likely responses without leading the participant. Avoid using a scale or ranked agreement; instead, keep it categorical, allowing respondents to select the one option that best reflects their opinion.
Section 3: REFLECTION
Create 5 Surveys by clearly identifying the specific attitude or experience you want to measure—such as satisfaction or sentiment. Then, write a clear, concise statement that respondents can evaluate (e.g., “I feel that we have a learning culture in our organization”). Follow this with the following Likert scale: Strongly Disagree, Disagree, Neutral, Agree, Strongly Agree. Ensure the wording is neutral and unambiguous to avoid bias. More importantly, only measure one attitude or experience for each survey. Instead of “My leaders are trustworthy and empathetic” only focus on one of the other.
Section 4: KNOWLEDGE
Create 5 Knowledge Questions by identifying a specific fact or principle the learner should know—such as a definition or fact. Write a clear, direct question that tests recall or understanding (e.g., “What is the ‘D’ in the DiSC assessment?”). Then, craft four answer choices: one correct answer and three plausible but incorrect ideas. Also include a short explanation (3 sentences) for the correct answer.
Section 5: PULSE
What are 5 to 8 open ended questions you would like to ask your members for their thoughts, ideas, opinions and suggestions?
Section 6: GAMIFICATION
