Measuring Employee Performance

1/30/2014

0 Comments

 
Employee performance is a function of outcomes compared to expectations.

If you want to get all math about it, Employee Performance = f (outcomes/expectations).

You can't evaluate employee performance without the ability to measure outcomes against defined expectations. If you haven't been clear about your expectations, you don't have any ability to evaluate outcomes - and more importantly, employees don't have a way to measure their own performance.

And ambiguity breeds poor performance.

When employees and teams fail to meet your expectations, the first question to ask yourself is, "Was I clear about my expectations?"
