Company Outing Feedback & Future Planning Survey
Captures how employees actually experienced your latest company outing — attendance, enjoyment, and which parts of the format landed — plus an AI follow-up that digs into the real reasons behind low engagement or lukewarm ratings so the next event planning cycle spends its budget better.
Sample questions
A preview of what’s in the template. Every question is editable before you launch.
How much of the outing were you able to attend?
- I attended the whole thing
- I attended most of it
- I attended briefly
- I didn't attend
Overall, how would you rate the outing?
Please rate each part of the outing.
- Venue / location
- Food and drinks
- Activities and games
- Timing and schedule
- Communication beforehand
Rank these elements from what mattered most to you to what mattered least when it comes to enjoying an outing.
- Quality time with coworkers
- Food and drinks
- Structured activities/games
- Free time to relax
- Location/venue
- Prizes or giveaways
Which single moment from the outing stood out most to you?
- A specific activity or game
- A conversation with a coworker
- The food
- The venue itself
- Nothing stood out
- Other
How likely are you to attend the next company outing?
If the respondent rated the outing or their likelihood to attend a future one below 6, probe specifically what went wrong or what would need to change — was it timing, activity type, who they knew there, or something logistical? If they rated it highly, find out which specific detail made it memorable so we can repeat it. In either case, ask directly whether they'd prefer a different format (e.g., daytime vs. evening, active vs. relaxed) and anchor on a concrete example from this event rather than general opinions.
Which format would you most look forward to for the next outing?
- Outdoor/active event
- Dinner or social gathering
- Team-building workshop
- Family-inclusive event
- Half-day off-site trip
- Other
Anything you'd suggest we do differently next time?
Which department are you part of?
- (Replace with Department A)
- (Replace with Department B)
- (Replace with Department C)
- (Replace with Department D)
- Prefer not to say
How long have you been with the company?
- Less than 6 months
- 6 months to 2 years
- 2 to 5 years
- More than 5 years
- Prefer not to say

How it compares
We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.
Why this template
- Includes a matrix and ranking question to pinpoint exactly which parts of the outing landed and which mattered most, not just a single overall rating
- Pairs an opinion-scale rating with an AI follow-up interview that automatically probes respondents who rated the outing or future attendance likelihood low, uncovering the real reasons behind disengagement
- Captures attendance level, department, and tenure alongside satisfaction data so low-engagement patterns can be cross-referenced by team or seniority
- Closes with an open suggestion question and a personalized thank-you message, giving planners both structured scores and qualitative direction for the next event's budget
SurveySparrow
Company Outing Survey - Collect Team FeedbackThis is a direct, ready-to-field template for the exact same use case — gathering employee feedback on a company outing. It covers standard satisfaction and logistics questions but relies on fixed question sets rather than adaptive probing. Good baseline template for teams that just need a quick pulse survey.
What it does well
- Purpose-built for company outing feedback, so no adaptation needed
- Likely fielding-ready with minimal setup
- Comes from a platform with broader survey distribution and reporting features
Where it falls short
- Static question flow with no adaptive follow-up to dig into why ratings were low
- No mention of voice-based interviewing or guided screen-share tasks
- No visible transparency into question logic or scoring methodology
Jotform
Company Feedback Form TemplateThis is a general-purpose company feedback form rather than an outing-specific survey, so it would need manual customization to capture attendance, format ratings, or event-specific ranking questions. It's a flexible, easy-to-build form but not a dedicated event-feedback instrument out of the box.
What it does well
- Broad form-builder flexibility for many feedback use cases
- Simple, familiar form format that's quick to fill out
- Easy to customize field types and branding
Where it falls short
- No outing-specific structure (attendance, format ranking, standout-moment questions) built in
- Purely static form fields with no adaptive AI follow-up for low scores
- No automated per-response quality scoring or AI-generated insight reports
Typeform
Company Feedback Form TemplateAnother general company feedback template, not tailored to outings or events specifically, so ranking, matrix, and attendance-style questions would need to be added manually. Typeform's conversational one-question-at-a-time format is pleasant to fill out, but the logic is still author-defined rather than dynamically generated.
What it does well
- Polished, conversational form-filling experience
- Easy visual customization and branching logic
- Familiar tool many employees have used before
Where it falls short
- Not event-specific; lacks built-in outing attendance, format-ranking, or standout-moment questions
- No adaptive AI interview to probe reasons behind low ratings or low future attendance intent
- No automated quality scoring or auto-generated summary reports
