Get Rid of the Performance Review!

Get Rid of the Performance Review! | #BetterLeadership | Scoop.it
From online.wsj.com - June 13, 2013 8:34 PM
Performance reviews supposedly enlighten subordinates about what they should be doing better. But instead, they destroy morale, kill teamwork and hurt the bottom line.

Very interesting read.

The alternative to one-side-accountable, boss-administered/subordinate-received performance reviews is two-side, reciprocally accountable, performance previews.

New Research: How Employee Engagement Hits the Bottom Line

New Research: How Employee Engagement Hits the Bottom Line | #BetterLeadership | Scoop.it
From blogs.hbr.org - November 8, 2012 4:44 PM

A new study shows a direct connection between how we feel at work and how we perform.

 

What would contribute most to your being both happier and more productive at work? How about feeling truly taken care of, appreciated, and trusted by your employer?

 

More than 100 studies have affirmed the connection between employee engagement and performance, but the Towers Watson 2012 Global Workforce Study — 32,000 employees across 30 countries — makes the most powerful, bottom line case yet for the connection between how we feel at work and how we perform.

 

This new study concludes that the traditional definition of engagement — the willingness to invest discretionary effort on the job — is no longer sufficient to fuel top performance in a world of relentlessly increasing demand. The problem is that "willing" doesn't guarantee "able."

According to the Corporate Leadership Council, employees with lower engagement levels are four times more likely to leave their jobs than those who are highly engaged.

 

But the importance of employee engagement isn't just increased employee retention; it's also about higher productivity.  

 

One study by HR strategy firm Kenexa found that of 64 organizations studied, the organizations with highly engaged employees achieved twice the annual net income of organizations whose employees were less engaged.

Employees can be highly engaged with their job, and not their employer


Via Daniel Watson, Jean-Philippe D'HALLUIN
AlGonzalezinfo's insight:

From the article:

 

“Employees can be highly engaged with their job, and not their employer,” Right Management senior consultant, Colin Couzin-Wood, told the audience at a breakfast meeting in Melbourne this morning. “That means they are looking for the next opportunity and it is very likely to be outside your organisation.”

 

Engaged workforces are valuable, the survey finds. Workplaces that score high on employee engagement have 44% higher retention, and are 33% more profitable, 56% higher in customer loyalty and 50% more productive.
