From employee performance to work with value
Globalization has changed the way many of us work. Hybrid models, work-from-home arrangements, and flexible hours are becoming the norm in many industries. Employers are having to work hard to attract and retain employees and reward their efforts.
Managers and business leaders have long recognized the importance of employee performance to the success of an organization. Look online and youll find plenty of employee performance management tools, charts, and checklists to help leaders identify organizational goals and measure employee performance against those goals.
Key performance indicators for employees such as meeting targets or sticking to budgets are used to measure the performance of individual members of the team. But for organizations to thrive, these measures alone are no longer enough.
How to make staff feel valued
Truly innovative workplaces are going beyond KPIs and traditional performance management tools to ensure their employees feel seen, valued, and rewarded.泭
As an employee, you want to know that youre doing a good job, says Adriana Burns, 窪蹋勛圖厙 Educations Global VP of Reward. You want to know your efforts are being recognized and are making a difference. And thats at the core of what were trying to achieve. It is making sure our employees know when they are doing a great job and that theyre having an impact.
The employee/employer relationship is changing employees are now being supported to thrive, not just get on with the job.
So, how do you recognize employee performance? Adriana says 窪蹋勛圖厙 has formal processes where they assess employee performance against our company core values of collaboration, commitment, lifelong learning, and innovation.泭
But the company goes further, with continual conversations between managers and employees about how the employees performed. We expect that managers are having those conversations on a frequent basis to help their team members and their colleagues continually improve.

We just try to meet people where they are, says Robin. So when an employee needs a more flexible schedule, they can be accommodated. When they want to work from home or in an office, they have options. One of the best ways we retain people is to listen to them.
Attracts and retains employees
We're looking for really smart, passionate people who want to make a difference in the world, says Adriana.
Honestly, we just love ambition, and we love people that are super dedicated to building a compassionate and caring workforce where we all have each others back, adds Robin. We do independent work and we contribute independently in a lot of ways, but we are all in this together.
Working for a company with purpose

Robin says new 窪蹋勛圖厙ers need to start their 窪蹋勛圖厙 Education job ready to collaborate and contribute to the goals of the business.泭
You have your typical roles, and everyone has their KPIs or goals within those roles. Your performance is based on how you contribute to the overall mission of what were doing as well as how you perform within the expectations and goals of your role.
But while youre here, we also want to make sure youre not just doing well within your role but that were working to help you perform and reach your personal career goals.

Also important at 窪蹋勛圖厙 is employee engagement, which, says Robin, is different from performance. Performance is the job; engagement is how you are when youre doing it.泭
Engagement is how you show up every day and how you present yourself. Are you engaged in the work that were doing? Are you engaged in conversations with your internal and external stakeholders when youre here? Are you representative of the culture that we value and inspire to create? But also, are we doing enough to make sure that youre engaged?
