Internal Sentiment Tracking — Fuel Employee Advocacy with Insight

Q: How do we protect employee privacy?

Aggregate and anonymize results with k-anonymity, redact PII in text, and enforce minimum sample sizes and opt-in policies per region.

Q: Can sentiment predict advocacy success?

Models correlate satisfaction and belonging with participation and content quality to produce an Advocacy Readiness Score by team.

Q: Does this replace traditional engagement surveys?

No. It augments them with pulse signals and real-time analytics while preserving longitudinal benchmarks.

Q: How do we measure business impact?

Link readiness scores and interventions to active advocate rate, compliant share quality, assisted sessions, pipeline influence, and recruiting reach.

Executive Summary

AI tracks internal brand sentiment across pulse surveys, comments, and collaboration tools, then correlates results with engagement behavior and advocacy outcomes. Replace a 5-step, 3–6 hour manual cycle with a 12-minute automated workflow that delivers readiness scores, risk alerts, and targeted action plans.

How Does AI Improve Internal Sentiment Tracking?

Sentiment alone isn’t enough. AI connects how people feel to what they do—tying satisfaction, belonging, and psychological safety to advocacy readiness, content quality, and participation likelihood.

Our agents normalize signals across teams and regions, detect emerging topics, and recommend interventions—from manager comms to content themes—so you can activate advocates when conditions are right and fix friction fast.
