Performance evaluations - employees hate them and managers despise them. One author referred to them as: “Large-scale, complex systems for making people unhappy.” Plus study after study, going back 52 years, when Rensis Likert critiqued the effectiveness of “the performance review interview” in the July 1959 issue of the Harvard Business Review, has clearly demonstrated that they do not work. That is, performance reviews tend to be inaccurate and ineffective, generating at best a 3-5% improvement in performance, and at worst a nominal decrease in performance.

Providing feedback has long been considered to be an essential skill for leaders. As they strive to achieve the goals of the organization, employees need to know how they are doing. They need to know if their performance is in line with what their leaders expect. They need to learn what they have done well and what they need to change. Traditionally, this information has been communicated in the form of “downward feedback” from leaders to their employees. Just as employees need feedback from leaders, leaders can benefit from feedback from their employees. Employees can provide useful input on the effectiveness of procedures and processes and as well as input to managers on their leadership effectiveness. This “upward feedback” has become increasingly common with the advent of 360 degree multi-rater assessments.

Everything seems to be happening at the same time; from the significant increase in the cost of doing business, to the diminished purchasing power of your consumers. The resilience of the leadership team is being tested as strategies have to be revised and new ways of working introduced and implemented. This is the time the business needs everyone on board to stabilise things and keep the ship afloat.

As with the education sector, corporate training is getting a major overhaul. Thanks to the rise in popularity of electronic devices, traditional training tactics are no longer the ‘only way’. Using serious games for training purposes not only allows businesses to make the training experience more exciting, but it helps companies appeal to the growing number of millennials entering the work force.
