Engagement surveys and performance review processes are effective in spotting issues and potential misalignments with our mission and strategy. But, let's face it - we're fumbling when it comes to acting on this data. The software supporting these processes usually does little more than data capture. They've lost sight of the primary goal - to accurately measure and validate a worker's performance. The litmus test of an worker's worth extends beyond the visible. We need to probe deeper: Does their skill set and behavior align with our performance metrics? Are they contributing to our organization's goals? Are they serving the right role in catalyzing innovation and change? The future of work demands a more nuanced approach. We not only need to assess where our people stand today, but predict their potential impact in an ever evolving company. At Lever Talent, Inc., we're using a blend of tools to assess human behavior and correlate them to goal completion, performance, engagement, and attrition metrics. Having an on-field % for a team member like they do in professional sports is no longer a pipedream. It's time for a revolution. And, HR leaders who lean in now, will find themselves far ahead of their peers in no time. DM me if you want to explore further. ⚡️ #HumanResources #Transformation #Performance #Culture #Leadership

Maximizing Impact: Harnessing Return on Engagement for Internal Success In the dynamic landscape of business, measuring the success of internal initiatives and change implementation is crucial. One powerful metric that stands out is Return on Engagement (ROE). Unlike traditional financial metrics, ROE delves into the qualitative aspects of engagement, offering a comprehensive view of how invested your employees and business partners are in the initiatives you launch. 📈 Calculating ROE is straightforward yet insightful. It involves assessing the level of engagement through interactions, participation rates, and the overall enthusiasm towards your projects. By analyzing these factors, you can gauge the effectiveness of your strategies and their alignment with your organizational goals. Using ROE, leaders can: 1) Identify areas where engagement is high, signaling successful adoption and potential best practices. 2) Pinpoint where engagement may be lagging, providing early indicators for intervention and support. 3) Foster a culture of continuous improvement by recognizing and replicating successful engagement patterns. For business partners, ROE serves as a barometer for the resonance of change initiatives, ensuring that collaborations are fruitful and aligned with shared objectives. Implementing ROE isn't just about numbers; it's about nurturing a culture where every stakeholder feels a part of the journey towards excellence.

Recognition goes beyond the individual—it creates a ripple effect throughout the entire company. When employees feel valued and appreciated for the work and behaviors that align with company values, it not only drives engagement, boosts morale, and fosters a positive workplace culture but also reinforces those behaviors.

Are traditional employee surveys missing the mark for operations leaders? 🎯 Frontline leaders often find themselves disconnected from the annual survey process, leading to a lack of actionable insights and a feeling of irrelevance. Traditional surveys, designed with a one-size-fits-all approach, fail to address the unique challenges and needs of frontline employees, resulting in data that is not only stale but also unhelpful for making real-time, impactful decisions. 🔍 Key issues with traditional surveys: Lack of inclusion: Operations leaders are frequently left out of the survey planning process, leading to questions and timing that don't align with frontline realities. Irrelevant content: Surveys often miss crucial operational topics, focusing instead on broad HR themes that don’t resonate with frontline needs. Infrequent feedback: Conducting surveys once a year doesn't cut it in dynamic operational environments, making it hard to capture accurate employee sentiments and needs. No follow-up: Without timely and actionable follow-up, survey results are often shelved, sending a message that employee feedback doesn’t truly matter. 🌟 Optimize operations with real-time feedback and tailored surveys for frontline workers. Tools like WorkStep provide relevant data and integrate seamlessly into daily tasks, empowering leaders to enhance performance and satisfaction. 💡 Rethink employee feedback to drive improvement and engagement.

Relatable conversations aren’t just a nice-to-have. They’re investments in the culture that drives innovation and excellence. This week, I joined a Meet & Mingle session with colleagues across our organization, and it underscored a key leadership principle: great teams are built on authentic connections. Amid discussions about favorite coffee spots and personal hobbies, something powerful unfolded. These simple, relatable topics opened the door to personal stories, laughter, and, ultimately, an amazing employee experience. And it’s precisely this employee experience that we aim to foster with our solutions in Human Capital Management. By building skills-based organizations, unlocking employee potential, attracting top talent, and enabling confident management, we empower companies to create environments where every interaction matters. Leadership is about more than strategy - it’s about cultivating trust, engagement, and shared purpose. Meaningful dialogue, however small it may seem, is the cornerstone of high-performing teams and organizational success. Kudos to everyone who made this session a memorable one. It’s experiences like these that remind us why human connection is at the heart of every business impact.

Welcome to Part 3 of this 5-part series exploring barriers to workplace culture. Don’t miss Parts 1 and 2 on my profile. Tomorrow, we’ll tackle Poor Communication in Part 4! Barrier 3: Unclear Metrics What does a “better workplace culture” even look like? If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it. Here’s why it matters: 📉 Without clear metrics, progress feels intangible. 📉 Leaders won’t invest in something they can’t see ROI on. 📉 Employees can’t rally around undefined goals. Science-Backed Fixes: 🔹 Measure both the quantitative (turnover, engagement scores) and qualitative (employee sentiment). 👉 SHRM: Organizations that measure engagement regularly see 23% higher productivity. 🔹 Use benchmarking to compare your culture against similar organizations. 👉 Gartner: Benchmarking improves decision-making effectiveness by 62%. 🔹 Track progress consistently to show what’s working and adjust what isn’t. 👉 Forbes: Continuous tracking increases initiative success by 44%. Next up: Barrier 4—Poor Communication. Culture dies without alignment. Need clarity on metrics? CDAT provides data-driven insights to measure what matters and show real progress.
