Sarah Johnson is the vice president of enterprise surveys and analytics at Perceptyx, a leading survey consulting firm. Sarah has more than three decades of experience in her field. She specializes in employee engagement, organization development and effectiveness, and survey data analysis, advising senior leaders at Fortune 500 firms around the world. Sarah has witnessed executives struggling across industries with such common challenges as guiding a global company through transformational change, leading successfully in turbulent times, and building employee engagement and retention among high-potential employees. Clients most often ask her how to leverage employee engagement to drive organization strategy. Her clients rely on her to capture the attention of senior leadership in a way that “makes the light bulb go off in their heads” when discussing employee engagement and alignment. Sarah believes that companies need people who are not just book smart, but “maze bright”—people who can adapt to different cultures and continually changing circumstances, or as she puts it, who can “read the signs and figure out where to go from here.” Organizational surveys can provide those signs, and Sarah is committed to helping leaders and managers develop their ability to analyze and use the data strategically. Sarah works with clients around the world, from as far north as Denmark to as far south as Brazil. She received a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Purdue University, and holds a master of arts degree and PhD in industrial/organizational psychology from The Ohio State University. Prior to joining Perceptyx, Sarah was the global survey practice Leader at CEB, and a vice president at Genesee Services. Sarah has also worked as an internal consultant, leading the global organizational survey programs at Eastman Kodak and IBM. During her time at IBM, Sarah held a number of HR positions that gave her experience in employee relations, compensation, and resource planning. Sarah began her professional career at Procter & Gamble. She is the co-founder and first chairperson of the Information Technology Survey Group, a survey benchmarking and best practices organization for companies in the information technology industry, and was a member of the board of Mayflower Group survey benchmarking consortium. A popular speaker, Sarah has made dozens of presentations at conferences sponsored by the Society for Industrial/Organizational Psychology (SIOP), Human Capital Institute, IQPC, HR.com, and many more. She has been a contributor to three books on surveys published by SIOP as part of its Frontier series.
