“For us, it has always been important to use an independent survey provider for the employee survey to build trust and to ensure employee confidentiality. We are very happy with the leadership model that 3S helped develop. Our leadership requirements that the model is based on, are evaluated both in the annual performance reviews and CAMPAIR.”

About Camfil

Camfil is a global manufacturer of premium clean air solutions. With more than 5,200 employees operating across multiple countries, the company needed an employee survey approach capable of supporting different languages, locations, and methods of participation while maintaining confidentiality and consistency.

The Challenge

Camfil wanted to modernize its global employee survey by improving digital data collection and simplifying how results were delivered throughout the organization.

The survey needed to reflect Camfil’s own leadership model while accommodating employees across approximately 30 countries and 18 languages. It also had to support different collection methods so that both office-based employees and factory workers could participate.

Beyond collecting responses, Camfil wanted ongoing advisory support to interpret the findings and continuously improve how employee engagement and leadership were measured.

 

The Solution

Together with Camfil, SalesGoal Advisory created CAMPAIR, a tailored global employee survey concept aligned with the company’s leadership model.

The solution included:

  • Digital survey distribution by email and through terminals in Camfil factories.
  • Survey delivery across approximately 30 countries and in 18 languages.
  • Customized four-field charts reflecting Camfil’s leadership model.
  • A reporting database allowing managers to receive reports in their preferred language.
  • Centralized report distribution through the Live Results portal.
  • Performance analysis and presentation of key conclusions to Camfil’s management team.
  • Structured action plans that translated survey findings into concrete development activities for managers and teams.
  • Progress visibility for HR and senior management throughout the development process.

The Results

CAMPAIR gave Camfil a consistent global framework for measuring employee engagement while respecting the needs of different countries, languages, and working environments.

The company gained:

  • Faster and more consistent delivery of survey results.
  • A survey directly connected to its leadership expectations.
  • Clearer insights for managers, HR, and senior leadership.
  • Concrete action plans based on employee feedback.
  • Greater visibility into the progress of leadership and team development.
  • A confidential and independent approach that supported employee trust.
