Benchmark
Benchmark is available for all of Brilliant’s standard questions and indexes, providing organisations with an external point of reference.
The purpose of a benchmark is to give organisations a reference point to put their own results into context. A benchmark makes it easier to interpret results, prioritise the right actions, and drive development with perspective. Benchmarks help you to:
- 
Understand what is considered a good result – is our eNPS high or low compared to others? 
- 
Identify strengths and areas for improvement – what are we doing better than others, and where are we falling behind? 
- 
Set realistic goals – by knowing what others and/or similar organisations achieve. 
- 
Support communication – both internally (to managers and teams) and externally (e.g. in employer branding).
