We  invite you to begin your journey toward becoming one of New Zealand’s Best Places to Work™

At Business Central, we work alongside central Kiwi organisations navigating growth, workforce challenges, and an increasingly complex operating environment. We see every day how culture and leadership shape an organisation’s ability to attract people, retain capability, and perform over time.

That is why Business Central proudly partners with Best Places to Work™.

The organisations that continue to evolve are those taking time to understand how their people are experiencing work and where leadership and culture can strengthen performance.

As a valued Business Central member, you are invited to leverage the BPTW™ Employee Experience Survey to turn employee insight into practical action, strengthening culture, leadership capability, and long term organisational performance.

See your workplace as your people experience it

The Best Places to Work™ Employee Experience Survey provides a safe, confidential way for your people to share honest feedback about work.

More than a score, it provides direction.

It helps you understand what enables performance - and what may be holding it back - so you can act with clarity and confidence.

You will:

  • Identify what is strengthening your culture - and where friction may exist
  • Demonstrate that employee feedback leads to action
  • Access credible data to inform people and business decisions
  • Benchmark against New Zealand organisations and track progress year on year
Simple to run. Significant impact.

As a valued client, you are invited to leverage the BPTW™ Employee Experience Survey to turn employee insight into a strategic advantage

  • 8–10 minute survey across nine drivers of engagement, trust, and sustainable business performance
  • Real-time results delivered via a live dashboard
  • Benchmark insights across New Zealand organisations
  • Up to three additional Pulse Surveys throughout the year to track progress
  • Complimentary 45-minute expert review to prioritise action
Value that grows year after year

Organisations that run the survey consistently report:

  • Clearer leadership conversations
  • Stronger alignment across teams
  • Greater confidence in decision-making
  • Employees who know their voices count

If you are committed to building a workplace where your people can perform at their best, this is one of the most powerful tools you can use.

A recent insight from the 2025 BPTW™ Employee Experience Survey
  • National aggregated results showed that trust in leadership declined by 3%, even as wellbeing and innovation improved.
  • Small shifts in trust have a disproportionate impact on performance.
  • The organisations that pay attention early are the ones that protect momentum and sustain confidence.
