for the organization. (Let the process, facts, past
experience, etc. drive your response and credibility.)
– Stop and think. Become less reactionary.
– Are you asking enough questions? Are you asking the
right questions?

• Greater tightness of fit: Employees either buy-in or get out
• Self selection process… “This is just not for me”
• Show evidence of elitism, a sense of belonging – internally and superiority – externally

• An influx of younger workers and tightened demand for skills have made it increasingly important to focus on coaching & development, not just competitive evaluation.
• New research on the neurology and psychology of work shows that numeric ratings, rankings, and formal evaluations without positive feedback actually reduce performance, despite the hope to create a more competitive workplace.
• Concept of the “bell curve” to understand performance is not truly representative of employee value. Neuroleadership.com
• Companies should revisit the “why” of their performance management process, to make sure that they know what business, talent, and cultural outcomes they are trying to achieve.
• Performance coaching & development are among the most important parts of the process. Develop a culture of frequent conversations.
• The numeric rating should play a much lesser role than it previously has. Movement toward values-based scales and other methods to give employees feedback is gaining traction.
• Equipping managers to have critical conversations is key. Make the process simpler, identify accountability measures for managers and encourage “employee ownership” of their careers.

• Address Technology-Dependence Issues and other Workplace Distractions (cont.).
– Responses include:• Re-examine workload, build better accountability
frameworks collaboratively developed and enforced by managers, with clarity and specificity around duties, deadlines, consequences of underperformance and progress reporting mechanisms.
• Intentional or mandatory technology breaks. Some companies are instituting “no email Fridays” or “no tech vacations.”
• Software industry has been revolutionized by the “agile” model: teams are broken up into smaller groups that hold regular short, face-to-face stand up meetings that last no longer than 15 minutes.
• Simplifying business and HR systems makes it easier to use and impacts productivity.

Turnover is just a number. Understand why and how you can change the number (if necessary).
The greatest danger in times of turbulence is not the turbulence. It is
to act with yesterday’s logic.
