the right people for your work

 

"People act more effectively when there are principles to guide them. Knowing what to do, they don't have to wait for instructions. And when the principles are welded together by a clearly understood system, action becomes even more purposeful and productive."

Marvin Bower 

People are a most significant cost but also a most significant asset.

But they will only be that significant asset if there are well established principles and clearly understood systems in place. That way you will manage your people to grow your business.

the right people for your work are a significant asset when there are principles to guide themIf your people are doing things they enjoy or at the very least, feel comfortable doing, you should get the results you want. 
For example if you have a really outgoing, people person, don't put them in a position where they have absolutely no contact with other people. They will soon get bored and start making mistakes. Similarly, don't put a "dreamer" in charge of your administration.
Managing people to grow your business requires an investment that starts even before you put them to work. It demands you invest time in establishing the principles and systems under which they will be employed and expected to operate.

There are some vital considerations in developing that framework.  It is true, they are nothing new.  But the problem is they are generally not put into practice.  If that is you, the result is your business won't grow as you want it.

Here they are.

Job Analysis

Do you know the job functions and necessary skills for each person you employ? A Job Specification identifies the abilities, skills and qualifications needed to perform the job successfully. A Job Description defines the job in terms of specific tasks, responsibilities and objectives.
 Recruitment  Do you have an effective recruitment process in place?
 

Selection:

When selecting employees it is important that they match the criteria established in the job analysis.  Can they do the job?  Will they do what you want?  Will they fit in with the culture of your business, your way of doing things?  In other words are you hiring the right person for the position or just the best of those currently available?

Managing Performance

Having made the right selection there are many aspects to managing performance.

  • There is the induction process - introducing the selected person to your business, your policies, procedures and systems.  
  • There is motivation so you can get the best from them.  
  • Then there is assessing their performance - innovative businesses have an assessment process where staff also give feedback to their bosses.  

 

The right performance management solutions can help you improve your business performance and grow your business.
