Meaningful Competence for building your career

How We've Tried to Establish and Measure Value

Performance Appraisals

The only people that like performance appraisals are those receiving the biggest raises that year. Even executives avoid annual appraisal interviews and ratings since they know ratings are subjective.

Goals

Performance Appraisals

Goals work for people who are motivated by goals. Goals become burdens when they fail to reflect industry or organizational changes or when the goals are set on the wrong targets.

New Technology

Performance Appraisals

Hiring the Right Person

Technology is always the answer, right? Yet migrating current employee evaluation methods to technology solutions only broadcasts the same wrong perceptions more efficiently.

Hiring the Right Person

Bringing in a top-notch recruit might work for specific needs lasting a short time. But in the long run, you'll have problems retaining these right people as they find their next right job with someone else.

Expectations

Bonuses and Rewards

There's an expectation that supervisors will provide clear expectations. Yet many supervisors don't seem to know their own expectations. And is there really a match between expectations and measurement?

Bonuses and Rewards

Hiring the Right Person

Bonuses and Rewards

If a company gives employees more stuff, certainly employees will see the company as concerned about them. Until another company offers more stuff or better stuff. Stuff only supports bidding for talent.
