“We want to do the right things. We want to go through a survey that really tells us what our people are thinking and what they really want. No matter where you land in the ranking – whether you make it into the top 10, the top 50, or you don't make it – it is all about getting that feedback and getting that information back to help you pinpoint where you can make improvements and what other organizations are doing. That is the value that SAP finds in Great Place To Work®.”

“Organisations that strive to give their people a voice, understand their experience and respond to what they're being told them are in a far better position than other organisations. For us, Great Place To Work® is a good check and balance. You can be doing what you think are good things, but if they are not impacting on the experience and building engagement, trust and innovation, then where should you be putting your emphasis? Great Place to Work® gives you a tool for actually knowing and understanding where you might focus your efforts.”

“We use Great Place To Work® to amplify our culture. We use it as an audit. Sometimes, when you're in the organization, you can forget to look inward, so it's just great having that third party to look in. They tell us what some other great organisations are doing, they collate all the ideas and tell you what you can do better. For us, it's about continually improving and evolving to make sure we genuinely are a Great Place To Work®, not just an award.”

“Great Place To Work® has been one of the more professional outfits that we've dealt with. They are reliable. Their consultants are always top notch. The process is always easy. The work that we do with them has contributed significantly to our improved workplace culture over the few years that we've been working with them. Every year that we participate in the survey we have continually improved. I don't think it's any coincidence that as our staff satisfaction and staff engagement scores improve, so have those harder business metrics such as revenue, profit and new business. I recommend and have recommended Great Place To Work® to lots of my peers and colleagues in other organisations because, for us, it has certainly been an exceptional program to be part of.”

“The positive influence you get from Great Place To Work® just helps you get better and better – and they are always getting better as an organisation. They have fresh insights, and they are getting to see the best of the best and pushing that back out. It’s a source of inspiration.”

“Why we participate in this – and why it's important – is for our people. It's a focus for us to ensure that our people are engaged and developing and high performing. The work Great Place To Work® is doing is to get businesses to reflect on how they're performing in those measures.”

“Employee engagement is enormously important to the Green Building Council of Australia and working with the Great Place To Work® is a great way to show your employees how seriously you're taking it and see how you benchmark yourself. Even when one's doing well in this space we can always do better and it's a phenomenal learning journey to set us up for a multiyear plan to create better opportunities for our employees.”

"What we love about the Great Place To Work Survey is the direct feedback from our team which we use to continuously improve and build on our awesome culture (we can say it’s awesome, we’re certified!)"
