What's keeping HR and business leaders up at night and how are peers handling it?

At Cascade, we want to move beyond assumptions and build our services around what you actually need to succeed.  To better do this, we need to know what matters to you the most.  What’s keeping you or your organization from being its best? What are you struggling with?  Where is there momentum?

By joining your peers and participating in our Spring Workplace Trends Survey, you will help provide Cascade and your peers valuable data to help better understand the workplace landscape and make more informed decisions for you, your organization and its employees.

What’s on the Radar?

This 15-question survey takes less than 15 minutes to complete. Your input helps us pinpoint the emerging trends that are shaping Oregon and Washington employers' futures, including:

  • Workforce Challenges: Navigating recruitment, retention, and employee burnout.
  • Compensation Shifts: Real-time data on salary budget projections and benefits adjustments.
  • AI Growth: Understanding how organizations are moving from experimentation to actual impact.
  • Learning and  Development: Identifying the most valuable training and leadership topics for the coming year.

Why Participate?

As a thank you for your time, all participants will receive a FREE copy of the survey report when it’s published this May. It’s an essential tool for benchmarking your organization against regional peers and walking into strategic conversations with real data behind you.

The deadline to participate is April 17th. Don’t miss your chance to secure the full report and help us tailor your member benefits for the months ahead.
