EUCUSA customers provide insights into challenges and solutions

EUCUSA guided us through our Internal Customer Survey with experience and a good plan.

„Our objective was to measure how satisfied our employees (more than 1.300 internal clients) are with the internal services and expert support provided by the different departments,  units and regional offices, e.g. Human Resources, Technology Integration, Americas Offices etc. We started with this survey in 2021 but decided to get the support of an external provider this year to improve some aspects of the survey. So we carried out our worldwide Internal Customer Survey (“Alliance Services Satisfaction Survey 2023“) with support of EUCUSA. 

We decided to work with EUCUSA because their robust methodology backed by many years of experience convinced us. As a research organization, a strong methodology and valid data analysis were very important  to gain the trust of our internal clients and define the measures to be taken. The global survey was carried out online in English, Spanish and French.

Maria was a great project manager. She guided us with a good plan since the beginning, although the time schedule was tight. All steps were very clear, she was able to respond to our many questions and provided us good recommendations.  She also supported us with the follow up process. So we will integrate improvements into our internal services, implement lessons learned and continue the cooperation with EUCUSA.“

The results of the customer survey with EUCUSA are really helpful.

„Our customer survey was in the best hands with EUCUSA. A quick understanding of our interests, uncomplicated cooperation along with extraordinary strong participation of our customers - and results that were really helpful. Our project manager Uwe Baco professionally addressed all the important aspects which make a customer survey successful. You could always feel that EUCUSA and Mr. Baco have a wealth of experience!“

Not only slides, but insightful reports – easy to interprete

„In 2021 we implemented our first internal customer survey together with EUCUSA. The survey has been conducted worldwide (12 countries) in 8 languages. By the EUCUSA reports, we received both a high level overview and detailed results of internal customer satisfaction in different business groups, dimensions and locations. So we have got different views to be able to go deeper. The most important was the „portfolio of action“, which allowed clear statements and was very helpful for interpretation. Also Marias presentation made interpretation of results easier. The cooperation with Mario and Maria worked very well from start, was structered well and expectations on both sides were clear.“

The Online Result Analyzer really is an added-value.

"We used EUCUSA's Online Result Analyzer for our staff survey for the first time this year. This is a fantastic tool! We can look at results online, can set filters and obtain the corresponding evaluation on screen right away. The four result areas provide an ideal framework to compare evaluation units or to spontaneously check result assumptions. A real added-value for our discussion of the results."

They are ambitious, very dedicated to help, and provided a dedicated team for us.

With the first group-wide employee survey, we feel we are in good hands with EUCUSA.

"We have been working with the EUCUSA team around Mr. Uwe Baco for a long time on a basis of deep trust. This year, in 2021, we conducted our employee survey across the entire group for the first time in Austria, Slovenia, Slovakia and Croatia. Although we knew about Mr Baco’s precision, speed and flexibility, he once again exceeded our expectations. Not only is he an expert, but he is simply a wonderful person to work with. His project plan is very detailed, and we jointly worked through it step by step. He kept being flexible to any special requests during the project, and we now control the implementation of all follow-up activities in the newly revised tracking tool. We feel we are in good hands with EUCUSA and Mr. Baco and consider the employee survey a valuable tool for employer branding as well as for employee retention."

Capable, practical, pleasant

“Super Mario” (the man with the unpronounceable wonderful surname) and his team supported us through an exciting phase of our company history. Our core team consists of editors and architects of a growth story which has started almost a decade ago, regularly putting us to the test on many levels with revealing challenges. This growth has been perceivable regarding team size as well: what could be decided in the “war room” during lunch time with all employees present is now spread over different offices in Vienna and across various subsidiaries around the globe. It was important to us to validate in an unemotional, anonymous and upright way whether our employees do thrive and if our self-image (lived values, business ethics, leadership style etc.) within the group is correct. Mario and his team supported us with an employee survey in the best possible way. Thank you very much - and looking forward to our future collaboration.
