Executives can use performance metrics to define and communicate strategic objectives tailores to every individual and role in the organization. Managers can ue them to identify underforming individuals or teams and guide them and employees can use performance metrics to focus on what is important and help them achieve goald defined in their personal performance plans.But wrong metrics can have unintended consequences: They can threaten to prolong on organizational processes, demoralize employees and undermine productivity and service levels. If the metrics do not accurately translate the company's strategy and goals into real useful actions that employees can take on a daily basis. Employees will work hard but have nothing to show for their efforts, everyone will feel tired and frustrated, also the company will be efficient but ineffective.Performance metrics are a criticial ingredient of performance management, performance management has a four steps cycle involves strategize misson, value, goals, objectives, incentives, strategy maps. Then, it needs to plan budgets, forcasts, models, targets. Next, it needs to monitor / analyze performance report, analytical tools. Finally, it needs to adjust or make action to assess, decide and track in execution step.A performance metrics measurement tool can fasten the business, distill an organization's strategy to serve its stakeholders, linking strategy to processes.

Collecting, a performance metrics measurement tool enable users to idenitfy problems and opportunities, taken action and adjust plans and goals as needed.What is key performance indicator (KPI) components? The only difference between a metric and KPA is that a KPI is a strategic objective and measures performance against a goal. KPI is a strategic objective, KPI measure performance against specific targets. Targets are defined in strategic planning, or budget sessions and can take different forms, e.g. achievement, reduction, absolute zero, tagets have ranges of peformance, e.g. above on, or below target. Targets are assigned time frame by which they must be accomplished. Time frame is often divided into smaller intervals, targets are measured against a baseline or benchmark. The previous year's results often serv as a benchmark.The goals associated with KPIs are known as targets because they specify a measurble outcome rather then a conceptual destination. Ideally, executives, managers and workers collectively set targets during strategic planning or budget discussions.In performance management view point, target can be defined five types: Achievement means performance should reach or exceed the target. Anything over the target is valuable but not required, e.g. revenue and satisfaction. Reduction means performance should reach or be lower than the targe. Anything less than the target is valubale, but not required, e.g. absolute means performance should equal the target. Anything above or below is not good, e.g. in-stock percentage and on time delivery. Minimum/maximum means performance should be within a range of value. Anything above or below the range is not good, e.g. mean time between repairs, zero means performance should equal zero, which is the minimum value possible, e.g. employee injuries and product defects. All above these target will be key performance indicator performance tool

This book was released on 1991-01-01 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although ability testing has been an American preoccupation since the 1920s, comparatively little systematic attention has been paid to understanding and measuring the kinds of human performance that tests are commonly used to predictâ€"such as success at school or work. Now, a sustained, large-scale effort has been made to develop measures that are very close to actual performance on the job.

Volume 1 analyzes the JPM experience in the context of human resource management policy in the military. Beginning with a historical overview of the criterion problem, it looks closely at substantive and methodological issues in criterion research suggested by the project: the development of performance measures; sampling, logistical, and standardization problems; evaluating the reliability and content representativeness of performance measures; and the relationship between predictor scores and performance measuresâ€"valuable information that can also be useful in the civilian workplace.

Download or read book Ultimate Performance written by Nicholas C. Burkholder and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2007-07-20 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meeting the challenges of high-performance HR Until 1760 ships routinely disappeared, ran aground, or sank because seafarers could not measure longitude. The cost in life and property was immense. Today, business faces a similar challenge, as the failure to measure human resources performance is just as costly and deadly to modern organizations. Senior executives once considered HR a "soft," unavoidable cost of doing business, responsible for compensation, employee transactions, company functions, workforce problems, and legal issues. Three factors changed this perception: the significant impact of high-performance HR, the implications of poorly performing HR, and soaring HR operating expenses. These factors have led to an increased demand and focus on HR metrics. Ultimate Performance approaches this challenge by providing clear, proven measurement solutions that will optimize the performance of people and businesses.

Download or read book Transforming Performance Measurement written by Dean Spitzer and published by AMACOM. This book was released on 2007-02-09 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performance improvement thought leader Dean Spitzer explains why performance measurement should be less about calculations and analysis and more about the crucial social factors that determine how well the measurements get used. Transforming Performance Measurement presents a breakthrough approach that will not only significantly reduce those dysfunctions, but also promote alignment with business strategy, maximize cross-enterprise integration, and help everyone to work collaboratively to drive value throughout your organization. Spitzer’s "socialization of measurement" process focuses on learning and improvement from measurement, and on the importance of asking such questions as: How well do our measures reflect our business model? How successfully are they driving our strategy? What should we be measuring and not measuring? Are the right people having the right measurement discussions? Performance measurement is a dynamic process that calls for an awareness of the balance necessary between seemingly disparate ideas: the technical and the social aspects of performance measurement. This book gives you assessment tools to gauge where you are now and a roadmap for moving, with little or no disruption, to a more "transformational" and mature measurement system. The book also provides 34 TMAPs, Transformational Measurement Action Plans, which suggest both well-accepted and "emergent" measures (in areas such as marketing, human resources, customer service, knowledge management, productivity, information technology, research and development, costing, and more) that you can use right away. Transforming Performance Measurement tells you not only what to measure, but how to do it -- and in what context -- to make a truly transformational difference in your enterprise.

Download or read book The Workforce Scorecard written by Mark A. Huselid and published by Harvard Business Review Press. This book was released on 2005-03-15 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a marketplace fueled by intangible assets, anything less than optimal workforce success can threaten a firm's survival. Yet, in most organizations, employee performance is both poorly managed and underutilized. The Workforce Scorecard argues that current management and human resources practices hinder employees' ability to contribute to strategic goals. To maximize the power of their workforce, organizations must meet three challenges: view their workforce in terms of contribution rather than cost; replace benchmarking metrics with measures that differentiate levels of strategic impact; and make line managers and HR professionals jointly responsible for executing workforce initiatives. Building on the proven model outlined in their best-selling book The HR Scorecard, Mark Huselid, Brian Becker, and co-author Richard Beatty show how to create a Workforce Scorecard that identifies and measures the behaviors, competencies, mind-set, and culture required for workforce success and reveals how each dimension impacts the bottom line. Practical and timely, The Workforce Scorecard offers crucial lessons for leveraging human capital to achieve strategic success.
