2. The measure of variability shows how different the responses of employees in a specific department are compared to all the departments in the comparative data. (Which departments are included in the comparative data is specified in the field above Variability and Mean in the figure). If the responses differ a lot within a department compared to other departments, the focal department will receive a high positive score. A score close to 100 indicates that the variation is considerable higher in the focal department compared to the average variation in the comparative data. However, if the focal department receives a score close to 0, this indicates that the variation in the focal department is considerably lower than the average in the comparative data. Low variation, defined as a score below 25 points, is presented with a grey background on the button (see figure below). An average variation, defined as a score between 25 and 75, is presented with a yellow background on the button. High variation, defined as a score above 75 points, is presented with a red background on the button. A score of 86, presented in the example below, shows considerable more variation within the Market department as compared with the 37 departments of the Firm Inc.
The response rate is computed for each question on the basis of how many employees are selected to participate in the survey. A response rate of 90% or more is evaluated to be very good. A response rate between 70 and 90% is evaluated to be fairly good, while a response rate of less than 70% is evaluated as not satisfactorily. To discriminate between the three response rates, the response rates from 90 to 100% are shown on a green button, response rates between 70 and 90% are shown on a yellow button, while response rates below 70 are shown on a red button. The 92% shown in the figure below, indicates that the response rate for the Marketing department is very good.
The three colored fields (red, yellow and green) in the background of the grey horizontal bar show the dispersion of scores (means) of all the departments in the reference material. (The departments included in the reference material are specified in the field above Variance and Mean in the figure.) If the bar for your department stops in the red field, this indicates that the score of your department is low compared with a majority of the departments in the reference material. If your department’s bar stops in the yellow field, this indicates that the score of your department is on an average compared with the departments in the reference material. If the bar of your department is located in the green field, this indicates that the score of your department is high compared to the departments in the reference material.
The mean for the department is shown by the grey horizontal bar and by the number to the right of this bar. If all employees in the department are maximally ‘positive’ in their evaluation, the mean will be 100 points. If they are maximally ‘negative’ in their evaluation the mean will be 0 points. The number 75 shows that the mean of the Marketing department points in a ‘positive’ direction.
The mean for this year’s survey is shown with a light grey and thin bar. The score – 75 – is given to the right of the bars. The mean for last year’s survey is given by a darker and more solid bar in the background. The score for last year’s survey is given in parentheses after this year’s score.
