Employee Performance: Measuring to Reward Success

  • By Bill Conerly
  • In Business Strategy, Labor Markets, Trial and Error Economy

Labor markets are tight.  It’s important to retain your best employees.  But  who are the best employees?

That question is tough.  A recent article in Business 2.0 magazine helps employers get a handle on employee performance.  I liked the article from its opening line:

"Let’s be honest:  Most performance reviews are a joke."

Couldn’t have said it better myself, but then the article describes some online services that help bosses improve their measurement of employee performance.

Imagine this:  you allocated you bonus pool so that your best employees were very motivated to stay.  You wouldn’t even have to get rid of the worst employees to see improved results overall.  Just retention of the top performers and normal attrition of everyone else will give your organization a shot in the arm.

In a tough, competitive economy, you need to measure performance as well as it can possible be measured.

Testimonials

Bill is a delight and easy to work with. The client thought he was great and delivered value to their group. I would definitely recommend Bill.
Andrea Gold, Gold Stars Speakers Bureau
As you know, it can be difficult to find economists who provide good substantive information who are so entertaining and engaging. I received many enthusiastic comments from members and others in attendance. I was very pleased with Dr. Conerly and have recommended him to NCSTAE, our national organization.
Molly Steckel, Idaho Telecom Alliance
Our audience of local business and community leaders not only valued the economic data you provided, but they really appreciated that you made it applicable to their businesses, their personal lives and moreover – that you presented it in a clear and entertaining manner.
Scott Boyer, Mountain Pacific Bank
On multiple occasions we have engaged Dr. Conerly to facilitate, and more importantly, stimulate strategic planning sessions. He artfully brings the complexity of economic consequences to light, and is also is a veteran voice of objectivity. And his ability to inject humor keeps the energy and teamwork a priority!
Greg Newton, CFO, Cascade Bancorp
Bill did a great job. We look forward to a continuing relationship.
John Hamburger, Franchise Times
The ratings you received from our banker evaluations were among the highest I’ve seen, which matched my impressions exactly. Your presentation style is quite engaging, you bring interesting and valuable content, and our ability to interact in a stimulating way during “Q&A” sessions makes you a valuable addition to any meeting agenda. As a bonus, you are a genuinely enjoyable participant in conference activities beyond your presentation.
Steve Yeakel, Montana Independent Bankers
Your talk and its message stuck with people.
David Crowell, after presentation to National Rural Electrical Cooperative Association
Bill assisted O.B. Williams Company with developing a strong business plan that we implemented 18 months ago. As a result and together with Bill, we are improving our position within our highly competitive market segment.
David Wick, CEO, O.B. Williams Company (wood products)
Bill did a great job! There were many in the audience who liked him and many in the audience who loved him! Bill shared pertinent and timely information with our audience of commercial real estate professionals and added interesting stories and a funny sense of humor twist.
Jana Knoll, BOMA Boise
Bill Conerly is one of the most interesting and engaging speakers I have ever heard. The fact that he is a very funny man is a bonus.
