Questions to consider for your employee manager satisfaction survey

Use these questions as suggestions when editing your copy. Keep the ones that fit your purpose and add any details your process needs.

  • How consistently does your manager explain priorities and expectations?
  • How useful and clear is the feedback you receive?
  • How comfortable do you feel raising a work-related concern?
  • How does your manager help you prioritize competing tasks?
  • What would improve the support you receive from your manager?

How to use the responses

The example asks for a department, the manager's name, behavior-frequency ratings, and optional comments. Make sure the department prompt is not treated as a real department answer. Its matrix runs from Always to Never, so check direction before converting choices into any numerical summary. Review patterns in specific behaviors, not an unexplained overall manager score. Department and manager combinations can identify respondents in small groups; explain access and reporting arrangements. Use constructive examples and a fair review conversation rather than treating a survey as a complete performance assessment.

How to customize and share this template

  1. Explain the purpose, who will see responses, and how the team will use the findings.
  2. Keep questions focused on observable work experiences. Use a consistent scale for similar topics and separate comments about the workplace from individual performance decisions.
  3. Review identifying details and settings before sharing. Agree how results will be summarized and when employees will hear about the next steps.

Frequently asked questions

Does naming a manager make employee feedback anonymous?
No. Even without a respondent name, department, manager, team size, and written examples may reveal who answered. Decide how responses will be accessed and summarized, explain those arrangements, and avoid small-group results or quotations that could identify a person.
Can I customize this form template?
Yes. Choose Use this template to make your own copy in Youform. Edit the questions and colors, review the whole flow, then share a link or embed it on your website. See Youform plans for advanced features.
Can an employee survey be anonymous?
You can design it to avoid collecting names, emails, and other identifying details, then review the relevant Youform settings. Also consider whether team size, job role, or written comments could identify someone before promising anonymity.
What should happen after an employee survey?
Review recurring themes, choose practical changes, and tell employees what you learned and what happens next. Explain what cannot change as well, so the survey does not become a request for feedback with no visible follow-up.
