A little guidance
Make the most of your next ask.
Count main reasons by quarter and by team: one resignation over a manager is a story, three from the same team is a pattern to act on. Compare the rating grid of people who left with your engagement survey to see which scores predicted departures. Read every answer to 'what would have kept you', since those are the fixes with evidence behind them, and keep a list of people open to coming back.
Why the person is leaving, how they'd rate their manager, team, pay and growth, whether anything could have kept them, and what should change. A follow-up that matches their reason gets more detail than a generic list.
Many people are more candid in writing, especially about their manager. Some teams use both: the survey first, then a conversation for anyone who wants one.
Yes. Tell people who will read the answers and that managers won't see comments with names attached, then keep that promise.
Yes. Use this template copies it into your account, where you can edit each reason and its follow-up question.
