Shape1 TITLE OF INFORMATION COLLECTION: Change Readiness Survey


PURPOSE:


We are collecting information for the consolidation of several NIH Institutes/Center (ICs) to two different locations – Rockledge I and II and 6700B Rockledge Drive. We are sending the survey to the ICs who will be impacted by the move.


We are asking the federal employees and the contractors who work in their space to participate in a web-based survey that will help us understand how ready they are for the upcoming change, as well as the extent to which they have engaged with the change management process. This survey asks a series of questions about comfort levels with change, understanding of the change, and preparedness for the major changes impacting the workplace. This will help us understand the effectiveness of change management efforts with this project, as well as ways to improve the change management and communications process for this project.
