PEOPLE MANAGEMENT, PART 2

Posted on May 20, 2019 by Trinity HR

In Part 1, we discussed:

1)     The keys to organizational success typically can be found in the three Ps:

  • People
  • Processes
  • Products/Services

2)     People are sometimes hard to manage, but we have to be skilled at it

In the agricultural period of history, shepherds played a key role. Their role was to tend, herd, feed, and guards herds of sheep.  Sheep represented an extremely valuable asset, and so this role was an important one.

To be clear, I’m not comparing sheep to people. However, consider this, almost all organizations contend that people are their most valuable asset.  When we connect the dots, here’s a logical conclusion:

  • Regardless of organization size, industry or others factors, it makes sense for us to view supervisors, managers and executives as “shepherds of people”.

With that being valid, what are the attributes of a “shepherd of people?

1)   Boundaries

  • A true leader will establish and maintain boundaries—just as the shepherd had a sheep pen within which he gathered his sheep.
  • Relationship are defined and preserved by boundaries. Stepping over those boundaries can damage or destroy the relationship.
  • These boundaries include appropriate ethical and moral boundaries.

2)     Trustworthy

  • A leader needs to cultivate a deep sense of trust from those she/he leads.
  • The late Stephen covey in his classic book entitled “The Speed of Trust” wrote the following:
    • Simply put, trust means confidence…When you trust people, you have confidence in their integrity and in their abilities”.

  • Those under our shepherding develop trust in us when there is:
    • Honesty: truthfulness and disclosure
    • Openness: willingness to share information and ideas
    • Consistency: predictable behaviors and responses
    • Respect: treating others fairly and with dignity
    • Integrity: keeping our word, promises & commitments

3)     Example

  • A true leader leads by example, and thus is a model people consider worth following.
  • She/he does not say, “do as I say, not as I do”.
  • She/he says, “let’s go”, not “go”—that one word (“let’s”) sends a powerful message.

In Part 3 of this series, we’ll look at other attributes of a “shepherd of people”.

PEOPLE MANAGEMENT, PART 1

Posted on April 15, 2019 by Trinity HR

ORGANIZATIONAL SUCCESS

The keys to organizational success typically can be found in the three Ps:

  1. People
  2. Processes
  3. Products/Services

An organization can be successful success without exceling at all three. But to optimize its success, an organization needs to excel in all three.

When asked about it, almost all organizations talk about the importance of their people.  However, when a deeper dive is done, we find that there can be a big difference between that statement and the actions which are regularly taken to make that an everyday reality.

The reasons for this difference generally is due to one or both of the following reasons:

  • The organization is not truly committed to consistently doing what it takes in order to create a great work environment.
    • Often, the organization wrongly believes that to do so is expensive.
  • Its first line supervisors and managers do not have the required skills.
    • This is especially true when as employers we promote into management those employees who have been the best performers in doing their non-supervisory roles.

MANAGING PEOPLE

Let’s be real about managing people.

  • People can be hard to manage.
    • Products and services do not have feelings or an attitude…but people do
  • Not all people are easy with whom to work.
    • We click easily with some, and clank loudly with others.
  • Managing others does not come naturally to many individuals.
  • This ability magically or mysteriously appear in new supervisors or managers.
  • Not all long-time supervisors & managers are doing so in a highly effective way.

Your supervisors and managers are the face of your organization to its employees.  It should not be a surprise given that they typically…

  • Spend more time with your employees than higher ups
  • Are the ones delivering your company’s important messages about

The reality is that all work gets done through people…so we have to lead & manage them effectively. That’s why it is so important for you to invest in the continuing development of your supervisors & managers.

The reality is that all work gets done through people…so we have to lead & manage them effectively. That’s why it is so important for you to invest in the continuing development of your supervisors & managers.

SOME ISSUES CAUSED BY SUPERVISORS AND MANAGERS

If your supervisors and managers are not effectively trained, they can cause your organization problems in a variety of ways.  Here are several:

  1. Decreased productivity and performance
    • Employees who are treated well do perform better.
  2. Higher turnover
    • Often, employees don’t quit their companies…they quit their supervisor.
  3. Non-compliance
    There are a myriad of local, state and federal laws and regulations that apply to you.
    Examples include:

    • Having a harassment-free work place
    • Overtime payments
    • Lawful interviewing

“THE ART OF DELEGATION”

Posted on January 14, 2019 by Trinity HR

One of the keys to be a successful supervisor or manager is mastering the practice of delegating. For some leaders, delegating is very unnatural and uncomfortable. This is particularly common with first-time supervisors.

Let’s explore several aspects of effective delegation, including:

  • The process itself
  • Its benefits
  • Reasons leaders fail to delegate

The Process of Delegation

Simply described, delegation is the process wherein the manager assigns responsibility to its subordinate, along with the certain authority to accomplish the task on the manager’s behalf.

  • Note: It entails responsibility AND authority.

Here is a 7 step process:

  1. Define the assignment
  2. Select the individual to whom to delegate it
  3. Meet to explain why the assignment is important & why this individual has been selected
  4. Assess any training and resources needed for success
  5. Stated required results, including completion date and, if appropriate, completion milestones
  6. Provide support and be available for discussion along the way
  7. Evaluate the assignment’s completion and provide feedback

    8. djpaulkom.tv commander cialis When Fallopian tubes are affected or get inflamed that prevents eggs from reaching uterus, the condition that arises is Salpingitis that may cause by a bacterial infection of sexually transmitted germs.

3 KEY Benefits of delegation

  1. Enables leader to use her/his time on other more important matters
  2. Serves to develop staff & prepares them for future growth
  3. Demonstrates leader is interested in professional development of staff members

3 Common reasons leaders don’t delegation

  1. “I can do it better myself.”
  2. It takes too much time to show somebody else.”
  3. “This is too important for me to trust anyone else to do it.”

ARE YOU READY FOR YEAR-END PAY REVIEWS?, PART 3

Posted on December 17, 2018 by Trinity HR

In Part 1, we looked at:

  • Pay increase projection for 2018 year-end/2019
  • Pay increase guidelines by performance level
  • Reviewing internal equity
  • The role of the market place

In Part 2, we addressed the importance of pay data related to the market place.

Here is Part 3, we’ll consider the importance of communications with employees about pay.

EMPLOYEE PERCEPTIONS

A recent survey revealed some interesting and problematic findings about employees’ perception about their pay.  Specifically, it focused on how employees perceived how they are paid compared to the market versus how their actual pay compares with market pay.

  • The percentages in red show the percentage of employees whose perception about their pay in comparison to the market is correct.
EMPLOYEE ACTUAL

PAY

 % BELIEF PAID ABOVE MARKET % BELIEF PAID

AT MARKET

 % PAID

BELOW MARKET
Paid Above Market 21% 44% 35%
Paid At Market 6% 30% 64%
Paid Below Market 3% 14% 83%

Only those employees paid below the market rate had a correct perception (83%)
levitra properien http://robertrobb.com/dont-like-aps-how-about-some-competition/ Micro-Chinese Medicine can block the further damage to the liver cells.

  • Of those paid above market, only 21% had the correct perception.
  • Of those paid at market, the correct perception was held by only 30%.

 

  • As a whole, companies are doing an extremely ineffective job of helping employees to correctly understand how their pay stacks up against the market place.
  • Making it even more troublesome, it that those employees companies are paying above market levels have the worse correct awareness!

CAUSES

From Trinity’s perspective, there are several factors contributing to this problem.

  • Many companies are either not letting employees know the basis for how individual pay is determined or are inadequately doing so.
  • Most companies are extremely hesitant to share with employees market data – even when they paying employees at or above what the market calls for.
  • If your company’s pay is at or above the market, why would you not want to let employees see that by sharing data? It’s clear from the survey that employees are filling in the blanks themselves – and filling in lower dollars than the actual ones.
  • If your pay is below the market, you should want employees to understand why that it the case. Or perhaps, evaluate the negative impact (including low morale, unwanted turnover and even potential unionization) of  paying lower than like companies versus the financial impact of getting pay to become competitive

 ACTIONS FOR YOU TO CONSIDER

1) Communicate your company’s pay philosophy to all employees.

  • We at Trinity have some strong views as to the “right” and “wrong” ways of communicating this information. We’ll freely discuss them with you so:

2) Educate your employees as to how the company determines individual pay.

3) Share market data with employees – “seeing is believing”

ARE YOU READY FOR YEAR-END PAY REVIEWS?, PART 2

Posted on December 10, 2018 by Trinity HR

In Part 1, we looked at:

  • Pay increase projection for 2018 year-end/2019
  • Pay increase guidelines by performance level
  • Reviewing internal equity
  • The role of the market place

Here in part 2, we’ll further unpack the importance of pay data related to the market place.

  • The most important question that has to be answered is this one:  Is your pay on target?
  • Here’s the question in non-word form for those who prefer a picture or image.

The only way to answer this critical question with certainty is for your organization to periodically conduct a market compensation analysis that examines both base pay and variable pay.

  • Without such an analysis you could be either underpaying or overpaying – both of which have unintended consequences.
  • Losing a highly valued employee because of her/him being underpaid is such an example.

Four Features a Market Compensation Study Should Have

1)     Uses data from relevant organizations, which means those:

  • Of comparable size (as measured by revenue and/or number of employees)
  • Within your industry
  • In the geographical area in which you would recruit for a position – locally, regionally or nationally

2)     Data addresses both base pay and incentive pay in order to provide total cash compensation

3)     Creates a position match by taking into account factors such as below, not just by a position’s title that can vary greatly from company to company:

  • Duties and responsibilities
  • Educational level
  • Experience requirements
  • Key skills and competencies

4)     Provides specific recommendations which take into account pertinent position holder factors, such as:

  • Qualifications in comparison to the position’s requirements
  • Level of performance
  • Special value to your organization of certain positions

SPECIAL MARKET PAY ADJUSTMENTS

The Market Study will identify positions and incumbents within positions who are appreciably below your organization’s target relative to the market place.

  • For example, you may have set the 50%ile of the market as your pay target.

The Study’s recommendations give you an approach or approach options on how to address these instances.

Points To Keep in Mind

1)     A Market Analysis can be conducted internally if an organization has:
These centers provide modernized classrooms and curriculum augmented by effective practical training. icks.org cheapest viagra

  • An HR staff with specific expertise in compensation and the availability of the time to accomplish it and
  • Access to relevant market data or the ability to buy such data, with data to include both base pay and incentive compensation
    • market data’s cost can be prohibitive

2)     Most often, unless the organization of a substantial size, it either:

  • Disregards the value of a Market Study
    or
  • Hires an HR consulting firm to conduct the Study on its behalf since the consultant has:
    • Expertise in compensation matters
    • Made the investment to acquire market data specifically for the purpose of conducting Market Studies of total cash compensation

True or false?

1)     To be truly effective, a market compensation study has to include all or almost all of the positions within your organization.

FALSE!

  • A wisely designed study identifies certain benchmark positions that are used to “fill in the blanks” for positions not included in the study.
  • By proper design, the study’s time and expense can be substantially reduced – while still being an extremely valuable and meaningful compensation tool.

2)     A small company can derive benefit from a Market Analysis showing where its pay stands in comparison to other companies competing for the same pool of talent.

TRUE!

  • Organizations of all sizes can benefit from seeing where they are underpaying and overpaying and using that knowledge to be compensation decisions.
  • Trinity’s Team has done Market Analysis for organizations ranging from less than 20 employees to those with thousands of employees, and from those with annual revenue ranging from several million to billion+ size.

3)     The data used should not be just base pay, but also variable pay so as to reflect total cash compensation for positions being compared to the market.

TRUE!

  • Reviewing only base pay provides an incomplete picture and can lead to incorrect conclusions, such as a false sense of confidence in your pay’s competitiveness.

PAY INCREASE PROJECTIONS

Despite the labor shortage caused by an umployment rate of under 4%, U.S. companies are projecting 2018 year-end/2019 pay increases to remain at about the same level they’ve been since 2014.

  • The overall average points to pay increases being at an average of 3.0%, with various highly reputable sources showing them being as low as 2.8% and as high at 3.2%.
  • This represents an uptick of only 0.1% from the prior year.
  • 3% of companies plan on giving no pay increases—this is the lowest percentage since the 2008 recession.

PAY INCREASE DIFFERENTIATIONS

1)     The pay increase average does not vary by employee classification. It’s the same for employees regardless of their being:

  • Non-exempt (“hourly”) employees
  • Exempt (“salaried”) professionals
  • Managers
  • Executives
  • 2)     Average pay increases do vary somewhat (+/- 0.3% to 0.5%) by industry.  Examples include:

      Higher than average:

  • Construction
  • Insurance

     Lower than average:

  • Education
  • Transportation

3)     The most significant difference in the size of an employee’s pay increase is clearly based on individual performance.

  • Pay increases tied to individual performance (commonly referred to as “pay for performance” or “merit increases”) remain the cornerstone of compensation plans.

SETTING PAY INCREASE GUIDELINES BY PERFORMANCE LEVEL

As just stated, the biggest difference in the size of pay increases to be seen in the upcoming round of pay reviews.  With this in mind, it remains very important for organizations to be able to correctly differentiate individual performance levels.

  • This fact makes having a sound performance management system in place, which includes:
    • A rating scale (by far, the easiest to create)
    • Objectives with measurable results/outcomes
    • A set of competencies

Below is an example of of a very simplistic performance – increase matrix:

Before levitra sale http://amerikabulteni.com/category/haberler/mansetler-haberler/page/79/ all these treatment options, men have to be lined to the 2nd toe on each of the foot.

Employee Performance level Pay Increase %
Significantly Exceeds Requirements 5.0% – 6.0%
Exceeds Requirements 4.0% – 5.0%
Meets Requirements 2.0% – 3.0%
Partially Meets Requirements 1.5% – 2.0%
Does Not Meet Requirements 0%

NOTE: This very simplistic matrix example is not representative of what Trinity would recommend to a client.  An actual Trinity matrix would take into account other client specific considerations for establishing differences in pay increases.

INTERNAL EQUITY

The pay review process is a great time to review the internal fairness of employee pay.  Fairness does not always mean equal pay for employees holding the same position.  On the surface, this statement may seem to be “politically incorrect”; however, it is “pay correct” when pay differences are due to one or more of the following bona fide factors:

1)     Performance

2)     Education/Training*

3)     Experience*

4)     Special Skills/Compentencies*

5)     Years of Service*

*Provided the factor causes or contributes meaningfully to better performance by the employee

Certainly, pay differences based on factors such as age, gender and other protected classes of employees are not only unlawful, but also are misguided.

  • They are wrong both for the employee as an individual and for the organization as a whole.

THE ROLE OF THE MARKET PLACE

To be truly effective, the pay review process should take into account what’s going on in the labor market.  The market place provides an important perspective as to the monetary value other organizations place on various positions.

  • Clearly, the value can vary from minor to sizable between industries for the same positions.

In addition, when demand exceeds supply, the market place acts by larger increases being given to those positions.

  • Commonly, the greater the demand to supply gap, the greater is the monetary value (i.e., pay) assigned to such positions.

Protecting Your Organization from Sexual Harassment Charges & Their Consequences

Posted on November 5, 2018 by Trinity HR

PROTECTING YOUR ORGANIZATION FROM SEXUAL HARASSMENT CHARGES & THEIR CONSEQUENCES”  

The past year’s news has been filled with sexual harassment headlines, with 200+ Hollywood celebrities, high profile CEOs & politicians being accused.  This has resulted in:

  • The careers of successful celebrities coming to a screeching end & even imprisonment of “America’s Dad”
  • CEOs being fired & their corporations paying out millions in settlements
  • Politicians resigning in disgrace

The sexual harassment cases that don’t make the headlines are those involving a supervisor or manager harassing a subordinate or a non-supervisory employer harassing a co-worker. Yet it is these non-headline cases that make up the vast majority of the more than 12,000 allegations of sexual harassment in the past year—a number that is increasing dramatically.

These instances can have serious (& even potentially fatal) consequences for your organization. These include:

✔  Distraction from Your Mission
✔  Energy & Emotion Drain
✔  Legal Costs
✔  Damage to Your Company’s Reputation & Image

  • Adversely affecting current/potential customers & employment recruiting

✔  Poorer Performance
✔  Lower Morale
✔  Higher Absenteeism
✔  Higher Turnover
Sexual activity can put an extra strain on your heart, especially if your heart is actively pumping blood, your http://regencygrandenursing.com/long-term-care/nutritional-management commander levitra blood pressure is at its highest, referred to as systolic pressure.

 

 

Many experts agree on four actions by employers should take to reduce the potential for sexual harassment and other forms of harassment to occur in the workplace. These include:

  1. Establishing the strong anti-harassment policy
  2. Effectively communicating the organization’s policy & the consequences of a violation
  3. employees  through comprehensive training
    • Especially those in positions of authority as employers are generally presumed to know of unlawful behavior by such individuals.
  4. Enforcing the policy in a consistent manner—regardless of the violator’s “star power”

Another advantage of taking these steps is that they may help lessen the severity of the legal &/or other consequences resulting from an Equal Employment Opportunity charge or from a lawsuit.

RECRUITING AND HIRING BETTER, PART 2

Posted on October 8, 2018 by Trinity HR

In Part 1, we talked about each of the five steps in the typical recruitment process. In Part 2, we’ll be talking about the selection step in the process.

It’s important to be successful in finding candidates who are “interview worthy”. However, unless an organization is really good at selecting the “best” candidate, the hiring process fails to achieve its mission:

  • Provide the culturally compatible talent the organization needs to remain successful or to become successful.

From Trinity’s experience, an organization’s candidate interview & selection process too often has one or more of the following flaws:

1)   Over-reliance on resumes

  • A resume should be viewed as a candidate’s “marketing brochure”, & therefore should not be over-valued in the selection process.
  • It’s an important source of education, experience, competencies, accomplishments, etc., but each of these needs to be deeply delved into during the interview process.
    • It takes a really talented, very experienced interviewer to do so in a highly effective manner.

2)   Too much weight on how well the candidate “performs” during the interview

  • Approach the interview as the candidate’s “job audition”.
  • There can often be a big difference in terms of how well a candidate interviews & how well she/he performs in the job.

3)   Dependence on one opinion

  • Interviewers vary in their skill at interviewing, and can have built-in, subconscious biases (either positive or negative ones).
  • These may color their assessment of a candidate.

4)   Absence of a formal tool to assess the candidate in terms of:

  • Behavioral style, including compatibility with the position & the company
  • Skills, competencies & attributes needed to be successful in the role

5)   Lack on an appropriate method for an evaluation of candidate
This would include leading and purchase generic cialis try content open ended statements that could get the individual to be more trusting in what the hypnotherapist said.

  • With this, not only can your evaluation method be improved, but this set of evaluations can be useful to defend a selection decision.

MANAGEMENT TIPS

Following the 5 tips below can make the difference between a great selection and one that you’ll come to regret:

1)     Ensure those involved in the interview & selection process know/have been trained on:

  • What to look for in a resume beyond what is written
  • The do’s & don’ts of lawful, effective interviews
  • How to really probe during the interview

2)   Have candidates interviewed by more than one interviewer, including someone outside the hiring function (in addition to an HR representative)

3)     Utilize one or more assessment tools in order to arm you with additional insights & information about the candidate

4)   Have a standardized evaluation form that each interviewer completes for each candidate

5)     Hold a selection discussion with all of the internal participants/stakeholders

  • This does not have to be lengthy if done properly.

EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION REPORT

Posted on September 5, 2018 by Trinity HR

A just issued report by the Conference Board (a highly respected business research organization) asked employees to rate their satisfaction with 23 different aspects of their employment.

  • Only 51% of respondents expressed overall satisfaction
ISSUE SATISFACTION LEVEL
Pay 43%
Retirement Benefits 43%
Healthcare benefits 44%
Sick Leave 49%
Vacation Time 54%

However, there were multiple matters that are not financial that were rated even lower in satisfaction than pay & benefits:

ISSUE SATISFACTION LEVEL
Promotion Practices 26%
Training/Development 33%
Performance Review Process 33%
Recognition 37%
Communications 38%

Here’s a quote from Rebecca Ray (Ph.D.), the report’s author:

“To attract and retain the most productive employees in today’s labor market, companies must make a bigger commitment to addressing the factors within their control. Among other steps, that entails addressing the job components with which employees are least satisfied, including job training, the performance review process, and promotion policy. As workers continue to voluntarily leave their jobs at a record rate, the need to prioritize components relating to their professional development could not come at a more pressing time.”

These report’s results, along with Dr. Ray’s comments, provide some important insights, which in turn we as employers can turn into actions in order to improve employee satisfaction – with no or minimal additional expenses.  By improving employee job satisfaction, some examples of what companies can derive from doing so are shown below:

  • Higher morale
  • Lower turnover
  • Greater attractiveness to candidates
  • Increased productivity
  • Reduced abstenteeism & presenteeism

RECRUITING AND HIRING BETTER, PART 1

Posted on August 13, 2018 by Trinity HR

 

Finding and hiring the right talent is time consuming and expensive.  This is especially true when you’re hiring someone into a supervisory, management or executive role.  Yet this is a vital activity for the success of all organizations—regardless of size, industry or other factor.

  • This is especially true in today’s job market where jobs are more plentiful that talented individuals.

That’s why it’s so important for an organization to be highly proficient in:

  • Finding great candidates
  • Making really smart hiring decisions

Step #1: Recruiting

Finding candidates who have the appropriate skills and experience, while also being culturally compatible requires:

  • Knowing where and how to look
    • This entails a specialized set of skills that not all internal HR staff members possess.
    • Too often the approach is to post a position on one or more job boards in hopes that: 1) some viable candidate resumes are received and 2) the number of resumes from individuals who have absolutely none of the stated requirements in less than 100.
    • What this approach fails to do is to tap into the pool of talented individuals who are not actively looking for a new opportunity, but are open to the right one.  These represent hidden treasure that needs to be unearthed!

STEP #2: SCREENING AND INTERVIEWING

  • Identifying individuals culled from the pool of candidates and determined to be “interview worthy”
    • Based on a review of resumes and phone screening
  • In-depth interviews—by more than one person in addition to an HR representative
    • Getting well beyond the superficial interview questions that candidates report they are typically asked by hiring managers and even many HR professionals
    • Posing second and third level questions that probe beyond an initial response so as to gain important insights
  • Determining which candidates will proceed to a second round of interviews
    • Using standardized candidate evaluations by the interviewers

      • It must be noted that Arginine may promote results that may further the adversity of side effects of some other drugs, supplements, or even conditions. the original source cheap cialis

STEP #3: SELECTING THE BEST CANDIDATE

Trinity’s Team has been involved in many hundreds of talent searches. Experience shows that many hiring decision makers rely far too much on three bases for making their choice:

1.      A Candidate’s Resume

  • A resume is a candidate’s “marketing brochure”, and not a completely objective portrayal of her/his experiences and accomplishments.
  • In addition, exaggeration (I’m being polite) and omissions are both too common.
  • Research reveals that nearly 50% of all resumes contain some type and level of false information.  This oftentimes includes title inflation, embellishing achievements and extending employment dates to reduce or eliminate gaps in employment.

2.   Interview Performance

  • Hiring managers often place too much emphasis on how well candidates interview.
  • Having conducted thousands of interviews, we at Trinity know that some people simply interview better than others.
  • There is a much lower positive correlation between how well a candidate interviews and how well that candidate performs once hired than most hiring decision makers realize.

➡ Have you ever seen a job description or a set of position specifications that lists   “must be highly skilled at being interviewed”?

3.   Short-sightedness

  • Anybody is better than nobody mentality.
  • Don’t be so naive as to think this isn’t what sometimes happens.

In Part 2, we’ll discuss how to improve your “batting average” in making the right hiring choices.
