Chapter 13. WRITING AND DELIVERING REPORTS

'Tis not knowing much but what is useful that makes a man wise.

—THOMAS FULLER, Gnomologia

Employee opinion survey reports can take a wide variety of formats. They vary by what is reported, how it is reported, and to whom it is reported. Generally, there are at least two reports for each survey:

A report to management of the initial results

A report to employees of the results and management's reactions

Both reports are based on the tabulated results, the additional information obtained, and any comparisons available. At this point, you have the first two items of information. The third comparison has been mentioned several times—comparisons with previous surveys.
