How to Prepare and Launch a Personality Profile Survey for Employees

Learn how to prepare and launch a Personality Profile Survey so employees can complete their profiles.

The Personality Profile Survey allows employees to provide information about their expertise, preferences, strengths, and interests. This survey is available under the AdminPersonality Profile menu and can be accessed by administrators and RH employees.

Once employees submit the survey, their responses are automatically transferred to their profiles.

Before launching the survey

Make sure employees understand:

  • why the organization is introducing Personality Profiles

  • how the information supports collaboration

  • who can view the profile

  • that they can update their profile later

Clear communication helps employees provide useful and relevant information.

Prepare the survey

Here are the steps to plan and launch your survey.

  1. Access the Personality Profile Survey (located in the Personality Profile menu)

  2. Review the questions

    • Administrators and HR Employees can:

      • edit the wording of existing questions

      • disable questions that are not relevant

      • change the order of the questions

      • add organization-specific questions

  3. Confirm the survey audience

  4. Select the sending method

  5. Configure the launch date and reminders

  6. Review the survey settings

  7. Launch or schedule the survey

Depending on your organization’s configuration, invitations may be sent by email or SMS.

Add custom questions

Custom questions allow you to collect information that is unique to your organization. This makes it possible to ask questions that are not directly related to the Personality Profile without having to launch a separate survey.

For example, you can ask employees about:

  • internal committees

  • preferred volunteer activities

  • additional interests

  • industry-specific experience

Responses to these custom questions do not populate the Personality Profile. Only questions that are linked to a Personality Profile category are transferred to the employee's profile.

Responses to custom questions remain available in the survey results.

What happens after the survey is completed?

When an employee submits the survey:

  • the responses populate their Personality Profile

  • the employee can review the information in My Profile

  • the information can be edited manually afterward

  • visibility settings determine what colleagues can see
