PEOPLE NOT PROCESS

Managing performance is more than a process – it’s about people. Effective performance management isn’t done with software and tools. It’s accomplished by respectfully addressing your people’s behavior routinely and consistently. It’s about candidly coaching through challenges and holding people accountable for lapses in behavior. It’s about identifying goals, fast-tracking careers, and in the process, improving your people and your bottom line. These are dialogue skills—the difficult kind that may not come naturally, but when learned, mean the difference between managing people and managing process.

BEHAVIORAL OUTCOMES

When people have the skills to hold peers accountable, they’re better at correcting performance problems, preventing potential disasters, and preserving and strengthening relationships.

  • HOLD ANYONE ACCOUNTABLE - Speak up no matter the person’s power, position, or temperament.
  • MANAGE PERFORMANCE - Get positive results and maintain good relationships.
  • MOTIVATE OTHERS WITHOUT FORCE - Permanently resolve problems by clarifying natural consequences.
  • MANAGE PROJECTS WITHOUT TAKING OVER - Help others avoid excuses, stay on track, resolve barriers.
  • IMPROVE PERFORMANCE - Agree on a plan, follow up, good reporting practices, and manage expectations.
