You can also access all of these resources and many others in Issue 365 of my Talent Edge Weekly newsletter.
As organizations quickly approach the final quarter of the calendar year, there is still time to influence critical business objectives. I am resharing three of my performance management tools that can help leaders accelerate execution by focusing on three areas.
- Recalibrate goals, priorities, and capacity: As new work gets added, this tool helps determine what should change, stop, or receive additional resources so teams do not simply absorb more work without making trade-offs.
- Examine ways of working: Even well-defined goals can be undermined by slow decisions, unclear ownership, excessive approvals, or other operating barriers. This tool helps identify where the way work gets done may be constraining performance.
- Reallocate resources to priority work: Strategy execution ultimately depends on whether critical priorities have enough talent, budget, and capacity behind them. This tool helps leaders question whether resources are still aligned with what matters most.
As you enter the next quarter, where is there an opportunity to use one or more of these levers to accelerate execution on your most critical objectives?
