This message should be the first piece of communication from you to your employees that will explain why you are doing the Culture Survey 20/20, explain the importance of participation, the deadline and participation rate goal.  This message should also include the who the survey is coming from, including the email address and the due date. We suggest the message comes from the CEO.  

Subject Line: Kick-Off – Culture Survey 20/20 

Message: 

Dear Team Member:

Our organization is committed to a strong and healthy work environment and you are the only ones who can tell us how we're doing.  The Culture 20/20® is designed to learn about your experience as an employee at this organization and then to use the results to make adjustments where they are needed for the best overall employee engagement and organizational culture.  Think of it as taking the organization to the doctor for a physical. We want to do a check-up on the organization and then prepare a plan for optimal health.
