Thanks for Participating in Our Employee Engagement Survey
May 29, 2020
I would like to thank each employee who recently participated in our 2020 TRCA Employee Engagement Survey.
The survey results are in. An amazing 84% of employees took the time to offer their valuable thoughts and opinions on what we do well and where there are opportunities to improve as an organization.
I realize that setting aside dedicated time to complete the survey was challenging for some of you, particularly those of you working in the field, and I want to personally thank you for your input.
McLean & Company has collected the completed surveys and has compiled the results. The overall results confirm that TRCA is a great place to work. However, your input identified some opportunities for growth on engagement drivers, particularly around manager/employee relations, learning and development, improved communications within divisions and across our organization, and rewards and recognition. These drivers are important in order to position our employees and our organization for continued success.
Next Steps
Results Overview: Beginning next week, your Senior Leadership Team member will be meeting with their Senior Management Team members to kick off the next phase of our Employee Engagement Roadmap. Over the month of June, the Senior Leadership Team and I will be hosting virtual Town Halls to present organizational-wide survey results.
Divisional Team Engagement: Subsequent to the Town Halls and over the month of July, your Senior Leadership Team member, working in collaboration with your Senior Management Team members, will hold a meeting to present divisional survey results and to gain additional employee insights.
Action Plans: Within the next two months, HR will be convening Employee Focus Groups from all divisions to participate in brainstorming ideas for change initiatives based on the engagement drivers. Our Senior Leadership Team will then identify an engagement action plan on areas identified as important to you in the employee engagement survey.
Thanks again for your sincere participation! Your feedback is helping to make our organization an even better place to work.
Sincerely,
John MacKenzie, M.Sc.(Pl) MCIP, RPP
Chief Executive Officer
