The January story — holding steady, but not evenly
The overall score of 76% in January looks identical to October on paper — but the data tells a more nuanced story. The Membership team went through a period of genuine difficulty: navigating a restructure and the emotional weight of saying goodbye to colleagues. Their scores reflected that honestly. At the same time, Marketing, Sales, Finance, and the Leadership team all grew their scores. Both parts of this story deserve to be told with equal care and equal recognition.
↓ Membership — navigating real change
Scores fell across all areas. Open responses named the restructure, the loss of colleagues, and uncertainty as key drivers. This is an honest and understandable response to a hard situation, and it deserves to be named — not smoothed over.
↑ All other teams — growing stronger
Marketing, Sales, Finance, and Leadership all scored higher in January than October. Their momentum is what held the overall figure steady — and that is a genuine and meaningful achievement.

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.

Our strongest result — a platform to build on
April is our most positive survey to date. Every category improved or held strong. Leadership confidence returned significantly and values reached their highest point. The asks from open responses are forward-looking: better communication, clearer workload prioritisation, and greater visibility into strategic thinking — the marks of a healthy, growing organisation.
