Stakeholder Satisfaction & Relationship Health Survey
Measures how satisfied external and internal stakeholders (board members, funders, suppliers, community partners) are with your organization's communication, transparency, and responsiveness. An AI follow-up interview digs into the specific moment or decision behind their rating instead of settling for a generic score.
Sample questions
A preview of what’s in the template. Every question is editable before you launch.

Overall, how satisfied are you with your relationship with (Replace with organization name) over the last 12 months?
How satisfied are you with each of the following aspects of the relationship?

- Responsiveness to your concerns or requests
- Transparency in decision-making
- Value or benefit you receive from the relationship
- Alignment with your organization's interests and goals
- +2 more
When you think about what matters most in this relationship, which of these matter most and least to you?
- Clear, timely communication
- Financial or operational transparency
- Responsiveness to feedback or issues
- Alignment with your organization's goals
- Opportunities for real input in decisions
- Consistency of updates over time
- Fair treatment relative to other stakeholders
- Long-term strategic vision
How likely are you to continue or renew this relationship over the next 12 months?
If (Replace with organization name) could only improve in a few areas this year, how would you distribute 100 points across these to reflect where investment matters most to you?
- Communication frequency and clarity
- Decision-making transparency
- Financial or performance reporting
- Speed of response to issues
- Recognition of your contributions
Probe the reasoning behind the respondent's overall satisfaction rating and their lowest-rated item in the aspect ratings above. Ask for a specific recent example or interaction that shaped their view, what a better version of that interaction would have looked like, and if their renewal likelihood was low, what single change would most increase it. If they rate everything positively with no specifics, gently push for one thing that could still be improved.

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
- Goes beyond a single satisfaction score with an AI follow-up interview that probes the reasoning and specific moment or decision behind a stakeholder's rating
- Segments respondents by relationship type, tenure, and organization size so results can be broken out by board members, funders, suppliers, or community partners
- Uses a matrix and max-diff to identify which specific aspects of the relationship (communication, transparency, responsiveness) matter most and where satisfaction lags
- Includes a constant-sum question forcing stakeholders to prioritize a limited set of improvement areas, plus an open-ended long-text question and closing chat messages that set expectations for leadership review
SurveySparrow
Stakeholder Satisfaction Survey Template | Measure Stakeholder EngagementThis is a directly comparable, fielding-ready stakeholder satisfaction template covering similar relationship and engagement themes. It appears to rely on standard static question types rather than adaptive follow-up interviews. As with most template-library entries, the page doesn't disclose scoring methodology or how responses are analyzed beyond basic reporting.
What it does well
- Purpose-built specifically for stakeholder satisfaction/engagement, so questions are pre-aligned to that use case
- Part of a broader survey platform with omnichannel distribution options
- Likely offers quick customization and deployment for common stakeholder-survey scenarios
Where it falls short
- No indication of adaptive AI follow-up questioning to dig into the reasoning behind a rating — appears to be a fixed question set
- No evidence of automated per-response quality scoring or transparent, published prompts
- No voice AI interview option or guided screen-share tasks mentioned
