Helpful Tips
Here are some tips that may be helpful in gathering the data you need...
  • Print the survey. Highlight the questions that require relying on others for the information. Request that information right away.

  • Divide the survey among your staff, assigning each person several questions to lighten the load for any one individual.

  • Refer back to previous years' surveys (or meet once as a group) to ensure you are "counting" gifts as you did in the past--using same parameters, time-frame, etc.

  • Call a member of the Benchmarking Committee with questions.
Thank you in advance for your participation!
