Simple enough question, right? But one that I can't seem to get a straight answer on. Should the Command Climate survey be optional? It makes us all feel put on-the-spot, and it seems no one listens anyway. Why can I not turn one down?

Why would you want to turn it down? We do these, so we know what you think? If you won't respond, we will not know?

The pooh-bahs listen to it. You can bet that the higher level commanders pay attention when issues come up on a command climate survey with subordinate commanders.

With the new system it is optional if you think about it. You are given a link to go to and you do the survey when you want but please before date X. Under the old way everyone was herded into a room and took the survey. But the Commander does not see the data like 43 year old Hispanic SPC said X. That data is used for other purposes and the Commander does not see it....the demographics are compiled to show how the command team does with certain ages, ranks and so on. The survey is an important tool and a good way to fix issues or to sustain things that are going right in an unit.

You just undercut your own argument by saying "the demographics are compiled to show how the command team does with certain ages, ranks and so on.". Guess how many black, male warrant officers there are in my company???
