FAQs

Why can't I see the PowerPoint option on my survey?

If you're unable to see the PowerPoint option on your survey, it could be because your survey is a Attributed (Continuous) type, which isn't eligible for PowerPoint or there have been a lot of customizations made to your survey such as changes to the factors or questions.

To enable the PowerPoint option, reach out to our Culture Amp Support Team with your survey's name. Reply with "Ask a Person" in a Support Conversation to speak with a Product Support Specialist. They'll assist you in enabling the PowerPoint option if possible.

Is the powerpoint option available for all survey types?

The PowerPoint option can be enabled on nearly all template types, including Attributed (Snapshot) and Unattributed surveys (but only once the Unattributed survey has been closed). However, Onboard and Exit surveys, which are Attributed (Continuous) type surveys, are exceptions to this rule. You can view our list of template options and the default survey type for each here.

If you're curious about the PowerPoint export for Individual Effectiveness (360) surveys, you can find more information here.

Which comparisons should I select?

In most cases, we recommend that you select one past survey and one benchmark as your comparison options, but it’s fine to choose two past surveys, two benchmarks, one of either, or even no comparisons at all! The presentation should work fine with any combination.*

People with access to shared reports will see an option to compare with the ‘Company overall’ in addition to benchmark and past survey comparisons.

Which demographic should I select for participation breakdown?

Try to find one that covers your whole company and divides it into 5-20 groups. Common selections here are “Team”, “Department” or “Country”. If you’re not sure that you’ve got a good option here, it’s fine to not select a demographic.

What does the presentation contain?

The presentation varies a little depending on your survey data and the options you select, but broadly speaking it tells the story of your survey, from ‘What is Engagement?’ through to ‘What should we do next?’, looking at your key scores, strengths, opportunities, trends and suggested focus areas.

Note: If both comparisons are selected when building the powerpoint, the Opportunities (Highest 3 and Lowest 3 scores) slide uses the 1st selected comparison, while the Trends slide uses the 2nd selected comparison.

Use our Results Presentation guide for reference on what to talk about and considerations for what you might include or exclude when customizing the presentation.

Which presentation formats do you support?

The presentation exports in PowerPoint (.ppt) format, and can be viewed in Keynote or Google Slides.

Can I edit the presentation?

Yes! The exported presentation is a native PowerPoint file, meaning that all the text and styling is editable.

Can I export a presentation with demographic filters applied?

For Engagement surveys, if demographic filters have been applied, exported presentations will represent the filtered results. If two or more demographic filters are applied, comparisons to historical surveys will be unavailable to select. Additionally, if two or more demographic filters are applied, the participation breakdown option will be disabled.

How can I tell which survey template type my survey is?

Go to your Survey Configuration page > Settings tab to view the Survey Type.

I received an error when exporting my Powerpoint. What should I check?

The two main things to check when receiving the error are that you have an Index Factor selected for the survey, and that this factor contains rating questions. If you're still receiving this error, reply with "Ask a Person" in a Support Conversation to speak with a Product Support Specialist.
