Welcome and thank you for participating in our survey.

We are currently conducting research for a book on how truthfulness contributes to organisational success, employee engagement and personal well-being. We are interested in practical ways to build a more truthful culture in organisations.

The survey has 24 questions and it should take about 20 minutes to complete.

Individuals’ and individual organisations’ survey results will be aggregated and remain anonymous.

To find out more about our developing ideas visit our LinkedIn page.

Before you begin the survey, let's just focus on what we mean by truthfulness:

By truth, we are referring to conventional, everyday truth. By this we mean the most accurate and complete possible understanding of facts, events, external and internal experiences, faithful to the original − without addition, omission or distortion. And truthfulness is the capacity and the willingness to recognise and communicate the truth.

We include truthfulness about both:

External experiences – of material objects, people, shared or recorded information and ideas etc, (usually thought of as objective)

Internal experiences – thoughts, feelings, memories, perceptions, sensory and somatic (bodily) experiences, (usually thought of as subjective).
