Question 1

How is this different from just running an engagement survey ourselves?

Accepted Answer

Plenty of engagement survey tools measure and stop there, short of diagnosing or fixing anything. The Autopsy tells you specifically where the experience breaks and why, inside your own organisation, rather than a benchmark score against companies you've barely heard of.

Question 2

Will employees know their interview answers are attributed to them?

Accepted Answer

Individual sentiment stays anonymised by default in every written deliverable, kept untraceable to any single name. People tend to say more when they trust that.

Question 3

What if we don't have exit-interview data to analyse?

Accepted Answer

That actually strengthens the case for starting one, and the Autopsy notes the gap itself as a finding. The audit draws on whatever data exists, plus direct interviews, either way.

Question 4

Does this replace or work alongside our existing engagement survey tool?

Accepted Answer

Alongside, usually. The Séance adds diagnosis and a real action loop on top of whatever tool sends the survey. Sending the survey was always the easy part; acting on what it finds is where the real work sits.

Question 5

What's a vampire moment in an employee's journey, concretely?

Accepted Answer

The onboarding programme that quietly fades out after week one. The engagement survey that produces a number, goes into a slide, and gets filed away for good. Small, undramatic moments that add up to someone quietly disengaging by month three.

Question 6

How long does onboarding redesign take?

Accepted Answer

The Awakening runs four to six weeks. It covers the full journey from offer acceptance to a settled, contributing team member: content, manager guides, a buddy programme, and an LMS structure where you use one. Where the managers doing the onboarding are new to managing themselves, Manager Enablement adds a full manager kit, small practice cohorts and one-to-one coaching.

Question 7

Do you build an employee journey map?

Accepted Answer

Yes, as part of the Awakening. The actual path from offer acceptance to a settled, contributing team member, mapped against what's really happening inside your organisation, built fresh each time rather than pulled from a generic template.
