Performance Management - Five Steps To Success
A business is nothing more than an idea without people in place to take action and make the business happen. And how well a business runs is a direct reflection of its employees.
Over time, a practice known as Performance Management has been put in place in most businesses to ensure that employees not only do the jobs they were hired to do, but do them well and are proud of the work they get done.
Performance Management involves planning, monitoring, developing, rating, and rewarding employees. Let's find out a bit more...
1. Planning Your Business Workload
Planning is just what it sounds like: planning out not only what tasks need to get done, but the ways in which getting them done should happen. Involving employees in this process is critical because by involving them, they feel more a part of the process and less like monkeys who are trained to jump on command.
In other words, involving employees in the planning process improves morale. It also helps to make sure that there aren't any gaps in communication to keep the plans from coming to fruition. After the planning stage, all employees should have a clear idea of what is expected from them.
2. Monitoring Business And Individual Performance
Monitoring is also self explanatory. Monitoring involves the monitoring of employees by their managers to make sure their tasks are getting done efficiently and takes into consideration how well the employees are able to function.
Monitoring ensures that unrealistic expectations aren't set by management or the employees and keeps track of not only what is being accomplished but what has yet to be worked on.
3. Individual And Team Performance Development
Developing refers to keeping employees evolving to meet the ever increasing standards of a post millennial workplace. It could involve teaching new skills, implementing new procedures to make the work processes more accessible.
It sometimes means assigning new responsibilities to employees who appear to have outgrown their old ones. Development ensures growth of employees and the business.

Success Strategies
- How to get the results you want now?
Success Strategies and Action Steps I have used are:
The Power of Choice
Where you are at this present moment, is exactly perfect from the choices you have made. If you want to be somewhere else, you have to decide clearly what that is (your goal/outcome) and create action steps to achieve this.
The Power of Focus
The book "The Power of Focus" by Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen and Les Hewitt, is one of my treasures in my Entrepreneur Library. If you focus on what you want versus what you do not want, your conscious and sub-conscious mind will direct attention to this. The movie, What the Bleep, Down the Rabbit Hole, explains this in detail about quantum physics and what we create in our lives.
The Power of Commitment
This is not about commitment to others. The first step is the commitment, your word, you make to yourself. Accountability and responsibility are additional success strategies and ingredients to creating the success, defined by you, that you want. The commitment to others reflects your integrity, your word and the team you work with. Co-workers, clients, yoru family, friends and community.

Re: Success
- I study success intently, and would like to share:
Here's two excellent and nearly identical success-formulas from a couple of the world's masters.
FIRST FORMULA:
1. Passionate Desire
2. Clear, Definite Purpose
3. Committed Decision
4. Take Action In Faith
(Bonus Secret Sauce: 5. Repeat Consistently)
I made a video about this, but am not allowed to link it yet. Google "Ryze Success Steps" for it.
Oh, and this is Napoleon Hill's (Master Of Success Laws)'s Formula.
SECOND FORMULA:
1. Passionate Desire
2. Understand It Is Already Done (Faith)
3. Relax & Allow It To Unfold (Go about your life calmly)
This one is courtesy of Abraham-Hicks (inspiration for the movie The Secret).
Hope that helps!
Re: Drop out Billionaire
- I reveived Bill Bartmann's DVD "9 Steps To Achieve Any Goal" as part of my monthly pack from Success University a few months back.
It is a great presentation. I've watched it several times but not for a while so I'll view it again in the coming week.
He is one of the greats. Like the best success mentors, he speaks with authority because he has come through much tribulation.
His program sounds like a great bargain at $100 a year.
