What is the Connection measure?

The Connection measure helps leaders, managers, and teams understand how they connect to others, what that means, and what to do about it when it falls short. 

What is the Connection measure? 

Available in Thomas Connect, our Connection measure provides a true measure of workplace connection and gives you a snapshot of how your people feel at any moment. It measures what other tools miss - performance, trust, belonging, and more - and gives people access to their own results to support better relationships and shared progress. 

With Thomas, connection becomes a shared effort. Enabling individuals, teams, and organisations to own their connection story and intentionally build a meaningful culture. 

Take the measure, use the results

You don’t need to be a psychologist to understand how connected your people feel. In just 10 minutes, our Connection measure reveals how individuals and teams are really doing across six core dimensions: Appreciation, Belonging, Cohesion, Contribution, Trust and Well-being. 

Create a team and share results to assess Connection, revealing a detailed breakdown of how people feel and where you need to improve collaboration.

Your connection results

The results highlight where connection is strong - and where it needs support - across each factor measured. Individuals get clear, practical advice they can act on immediately, with simple steps tailored to their role, team or environment. Connection is dynamic, which means they can retake the measure to track progress and see if the change is working.

Shared results for shared ownership

What makes the Connection measure different is its immediacy and transparency. Instead of waiting weeks for engagement survey results, individuals and teams get instant insight, so they can start making meaningful changes immediately. Results can be used for personal reflection or to spark more open, honest conversations in 1:1s. Sharing and discussing results builds trust in teams, strengthens relationships, and helps managers offer the right support when connection is low. When your people can understand and name what they feel, you create the conditions for stronger collaboration and better outcomes.

Be proactive, not reactive

When people feel connected, they stay longer, perform better, and bring out the best in those around them. When they don’t, you’ll see the signs - rising absence, disengagement, disruption and conflict. The Connection measure helps you spot early warning signs before it’s too late. And with clear insight into the factors driving dissatisfaction, you can take targeted action to turn things around. It’s how you keep your best people happy - and your teams performing at their best.
