The journey so far
Four moments. Twelve points. One team.

From 76% to 88% in less than a year. Each survey tells a different chapter — of challenge met, of feedback heard, of a culture that keeps choosing to grow.

A strong baseline. Team relationships were our greatest strength. Open responses pointed to a clear need for better development pathways and more structured performance conversations.

The headline held steady — but the story behind it matters. Membership dipped through the restructure, while every other team grew. Their strength carried the overall score.

Reading the data

Where we are thriving —
and where we can grow

These insights are grounded in the survey data and the open responses people shared. They are written to be read by everyone in this organisation.

The story of
where we have come from

Three surveys. Three honest moments of reflection. Here is what each period told us — and what it means for the road ahead.

A strong start, with honest signals
The first survey gave us a healthy foundation. Team connection was our single greatest strength — My Team scored 97%. People were proud of the culture. Open responses were clear: people wanted better-defined development pathways, more structured performance conversations, and frameworks that gave a genuine sense of how they were progressing and what came next.

Steady overall — with a story beneath
The company-wide score held at 76% — but this holds two very different experiences. Membership navigated the human weight of a restructure and the loss of colleagues. Their scores fell, and that was the honest and right response. Meanwhile, every other team grew. The introduction of the new performance framework was a direct and meaningful response to what people had asked for in October.

A clear recovery — and a platform to build on
April marked our strongest result at the time. Every category improved or held strong. Leadership confidence returned and values reached their highest point. Open responses were forward-looking: communication, workload prioritisation, and visibility into strategic thinking — the marks of a team settled enough to ask bigger questions.

88% — our highest score to date
July is a landmark moment. An 88% engagement score with 28 responses represents a 12-point rise from where we began. Team (93%) and Manager (92%) scores are exceptional. People are proud to work here, deeply connected to our values and mission, and genuinely invested in the future. The open conversations now are about growth, transparency and capacity — not uncertainty. That shift is everything.
