1. Instructions

The leadership of the church wants to know what you think about your work environment and experience as a staff member. We are interested in your views and beliefs in a variety of areas. You will find statements about how you see things related to your work. We also need to know some things about you and you will find questions designed to help us understand you better. Finally, we want to know what you believe are important priorities for the future in the series of questions found at the end of the survey. We want you to feel free to be honest in this survey. Therefore it is completely anonymous. If you are anxious that the personal information in questions #40 to #42 will identify you, you are given the option of leaving them blank.

In each case, YOUR impressions, feelings, and opinions are important for church planning. In some cases, you may feel that your opinions are not well informed. Please give your impression as it is now, even though you realize it could change by talking with others. Use the “Don’t Know” response only in those rare cases where you have no impression at all.

Questions with an asterisk (*) require a response before the assessment will allow you to move forward to the next page.
