The future is a system not unlike any other system.  Consider this:  It’s made up of numerous subsystems that must be in sync in order to create meaning. That’s why in the digital era, it’s important to view the rapid changes and technological disruptions that surround us systemically.

How HR can WOW! the business and stay on the (b)risk side of management

2020-07-16T13:27:54+00:00

For more information about Improvid Performance Consulting visit our Human Performance Improvement website.  ‘Brisk’ is one of those delightful words that sounds like what it means: Quick, lively, bracing, and refreshing.  Anything brisk is happening quickly, but not too fast.  Marked by speed, liveliness, and vigour and energy. For the past few decades, HR has been under scrutiny for many reasons. Perhaps the most important one is, the question of the value of the profession and the speed it executes at. As Ulrich rightfully commented in a recent article: “Every few years there are public critiques about the HR field. Some prophets [...]

The fall of traditional PM systems

2020-07-16T12:02:36+00:00

For decades organisations have been fixated on performance management systems that measure and rate an individual's performance.  Managers tirelessly try to improve their staff's performance and productivity and seldom succeed.  In addition, the whole process often leaves employees anxious and demotivated. So why is this practice continuing? It seems the system is broken... What started as a sound theory has evolved into something that is not conducive to improving performance in organisations. This is probably the reason why many big companies are abolishing traditional systems and opting for something closer to the original core of performance management.  They have also realised this is more in line with the modern-day employee/work [...]

Human Resources and Training Managers who are responsible for HR budgets have to tighten their belts and understand where the money is being spent and why. Often service providers and internal performance consultants suggest solutions and interventions for performance opportunities and problems without substantiated evidence of where the gaps are, what caused the performance gaps, and what the reasons are for the gaps. We also need to know how to measure and evaluate the results and their impact once the solution has been implemented. It is far more credible to report on your HR spend if evidence can be provided [...]
