We started eePulse in 1996 to transform how companies use employee survey data and to commercialize the work I was doing on employee energy, which required a more frequent measurement process because it is the fluctuation of energy, not measurement at one point in time, which predicts performance outcomes.

I then started the Leadership Pulse in 2023 in order to take the learning from organizations and use it to transform how data was gathered from leaders and for leaders. I was able to use the eePulse fast reporting process to allow each individual survey participant to receive his or her own personal reports and benchmarking data. In other words, I did not have to take the time to analyze the data and put it into a PowerPoint or other type of report for everyone. I could automate the process and provide each participant with a personalized report with benchmarking.

The Leadership Pulse tackles important topics for our population of leader respondents, and while it gives me research data to study and share, it also provides each participant with his/her own data, and we give leaders the option of adding in their direct reports, giving each individual a team report in addition to access to benchmarking.
