Best-in-class

service providers

typically achieve

ratings of

approximately

85%, while

average

providers score

closer to 75%

Every 1.3% increase in customer satisfaction

scores corresponded with a

subsequent 0.5% increase

in revenue growth.

Senior executives

have assessed that

their workforce is

operating at only

60% to 65% of their

potential.

Only 59% of work time is

productive. What gets in the

way of higher employee

productivity?

• Insufficient planning and

control (43%)

• Inadequate management

• Poor working morale

“Although most people are working very hard these days,

we have found that each individual in an organization

can still increase productivity by at least 30%.”

“The culprits are a variety of organizational ‘ills,’ including

lack of clear directions and goals, sub-optimized

processes, excessive paperwork and reporting

requirements, unproductive meetings, inappropriate

systems and tools, etc.”

Tor Dahl, former president of the World Confederation of

Productivity Science and a member of the Board of Directors

for the American Productivity and Quality Center

To help people

perform well,

an effective

performance

management system must be

established.

The 3 Keys to an

Effective Performance

Management System

1. Performance

planning

2. Day-to-day

coaching/execution

3. Performance

evaluation

1.Clear, measureable goals tied to

overall department initiatives

2.Less than five goals, written

down so they can be reviewed

and adjusted if necessary

3.An analysis of employee skill

level for each task

4.Clear agreements on the level of

direction and support needed to

succeed

The biggest

impact on

performance

comes from

day-to-day

coaching

• Schedule weekly

one-on-ones

• 15-30 minutes in

length

• Direct report sets the

agenda

• Remember

• Conduct quarterly

• Celebrate

“They have a

“They frame the

questions by

“They have strong

mechanisms for

closing the loop.”

“They believe

that experience

is the best

teacher ever.”
