What the Copilot Impact survey uncovers

When leaders seek feedback, organizations can proactively highlight the value of a new tool and address challenges that might otherwise go unnoticed. The Copilot Impact survey can help organizations better understand:

  • User insights: Copilot will likely be used differently across employee roles. Gathering user feedback helps to refine implementations and ensure enablement efforts are aligned with the real-world needs of your workforce.
  • Employee empowerment opportunities: Surveys help empower employees by giving them a voice to share their experiences. This empowerment fosters a sense of ownership and responsibility, which can lead to more active engagement with - and adoption of – Microsoft Copilot.
  • Copilot impact: Items in this survey help establish the overall impact of Copilot usage. The core items show established relationships with Copilot use and general work patterns based on Microsoft research.
  • Success stories: Collecting feedback from employees on their use of Copilot early and often can uncover success stories, best practices, and tips to share across your organization.

Microsoft Copilot Impact Survey content

Glint recommended items fall into two categories:

  1. Core items: These survey items ask employees to reflect on the task- or work-oriented benefits they experience as a result of using Copilot. They help establish the productivity and employee experience return-on-investment (ROI) that Copilot has.
  2. Additional items: These survey items ask employees to evaluate the utility of Copilot, their organization's process, and enablement practices. They are designed to support organizations in understanding "how well it's going" with a Copilot roll-out and give more context to where employees may need more support to adopt Copilot most effectively.
