Creating effective measurement tools is an integral yet sometimes confusing piece of any wellness program. Today’s guest, Jirs Meuris, is back to help demystify the steps to planning and implementing an effective survey.

Jirs is an assistant professor in the Management and Human Resources Department at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and serves as a faculty affiliate at the Institute for Research on Poverty and the Center for Financial Security. He has conducted research in affiliation with numerous universities, health care companies, finance and transportation industries. Jirs has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, and the Washington Post as well as appearing on radio and tv programs including NPR’s Marketplace.

In this episode, Jirs shares some of the biggest mistakes people make when creating surveys, the challenges to maximizing utility, as well as the most effective ways to incentivize surveys. He explains the psychological safety of anonymous surveys, as well as the rapport and trust that must be present to get honest answers on a survey that’s not anonymous. 

Jirs touches on determining survey content and deciding on formatting - both relating back to the overall goal of the survey - and the importance of getting management buy in. Lastly, he discusses his method of implementation including reminders and shares with us his main takeaways for developing effective measurement tools.
