Assess Employee Perception of Voice

Dr. Burris’ main area of research is a concept called employee voice, or the communication of opinions, ideas, and suggestions from team members and the likelihood of their implementation by higher-ups. For managers, it is critical to create a culture in which employees feel not only confident in voicing their opinions but also that their ideas are valued. By gathering candid feedback directly from your team, this flight will help you assess the state of employee voice in your company.
