THE BUSINESS CASE FOR ALIGNMENT

alignment

If your company is like many other small and mid-sized businesses, your employees
represent your organization’s:

  • Largest (or 2nd largest) line item expense and
  • Your most valuable asset

This means your company’s productivity and profitability depend on having your
employees perform to their fullest potential.

  • This is even more critical for small and mid-sized companies since most cannot compete with large ones in terms of financial resources, technology and infrastructure.

HOW CAN THIS BE ACCOMPLISHED? ALIGNMENT! (GETTING YOUR DUCKS IN A ROW)

Or are they not even in the same pond?

  • Studies show a very significant increase in both employee and business performance when an organization effectively:

arrow-bullet Ties individual employee goals to the company’s overall strategy

arrow-bulletConnects its performance management and rewards to goal achievement

  • Yet amazingly studies show that:

arrow-bullet Only a small percentage of employees understand their company’s goals and how they impact those goals
arrow-bulletMany organizations do not strongly connect performance management and rewards with achievement of goals

RECOMMENDED EMPLOYER ACTION

  1. Make sure your team leaders fully understand the company goals
  2. Have all team goals roll up to company goals
  3. Help individual employees understand how their roles (and individual goals if applicable) directly impact team and company goals
  4. Design your performance management system and reward plans so as to reinforce these connections
