KeyneLink™:
Strategy-based Performance Management
|
|
Question: What are the differences between "strategies",
"plays", "plans", "goals" and "good intentions"?
Answer: There is no difference, they are all dreams,
fantasies, or just "good ideas", until they are
executed! |
Strategy-based performance management is about leading and motivating employees and
guiding execution towards accomplishing clearly defined "ends": strategies,
goals, deliverables.
Companies and individuals are more effective when they have
realistic initiatives, tangible goals and standards, and a
consistent system for measuring success.
Yet, most employees do not
have a clear understanding of expectations.
Strategy-based performance management communicates a company's
(or department's, or team's) vision, mission, values and
strategies so all "players"
can align with them as the central focus of day-to-day operations. |
"Today, only half of employees understand how their
actions relate to company goals. Over 40% feel their
compensation is not adequately tied to job performance,
and over 75% say their company does not reward them or
motivate them to achieve goals. Most employees do not
even have a clear understanding of what is expected of
them or how the company is evaluating them."

Introducing KeyneLink,
a revolutionary performance management system that
integrates your organizations strategies, vision and values
with the daily activities of your people. K is part process,
part software, and part roadmap. It motivates your
organization, teams and employees to work together to reach
goals and head off problems before they become big.
KeyneLink is not an automated performance appraisal
system masquerading as a performance management system.
There are plenty of those out there on the market, and we
are not in that business. KeyneLink is a true
strategy-based performance management system that focuses on
ongoing communication and feedback, the two characteristics
that have proven time and time again to be the keys to
successful results. |

A true performance
management system |
The problem with performance appraisals is that they
are
a once-a-year (if at all), dreaded event. Managers don't
like giving them, and employees don't like receiving
them. And those automated performance appraisal systems
out there on the market do little to alleviate the dread
of the face-to-face meeting.
Instead of waiting until the end of the year to tell
employees if the road they took was an acceptable one,
KEYNELink
helps managers lead and guide employees down the
road as they travel, rendering the traditional
end-of-year performance appraisal obsolete. Ongoing
communication is at the core of our system, and when
communication takes place regularly (as it should!),
there is no need for a formal appraisal at the end of
the year. Instead, loose ends are tied up and rewards
are distributed. |
|
Incorporating best practice standards
KeyneLink
incorporates industry best practice standards
into its performance management system.
From goal
alignment to expectation setting and performance
measurement including 360-degree feedback and
organizational culture surveys,
KeyneLink
delivers the highest quality processes possible.
|
Assessments |
KEYNEView,
our 360-degree feedback survey, is based upon years
of research and refinement and is available online
to give organizations and employees valuable data
for goal-setting. It takes only minutes to set up,
and the data integrates seamlessly into KEYNELink. |
|
Responsibilities Clarification |
All employees have the right to know what's
expected of them, and KEYNELink
helps in this process with its primary job
responsibility clarification wizard. This wizard
guides employees and managers through the thoughtful
process of defining expectations, and it even allows
for mid-course changes as circumstances warrant. |
|
Goal Setting |
KEYNELink
automates the creation, assignment, and
ongoing monitoring of employee and team goals. This
automated process results in improved communications
around expectations and goals, increased employee
engagement, and increased visibility and
accountability throughout the organization. |
Bi-Monthly
Progress
Meetings |
Integral to the success of any employee
performance management initiative is ongoing
communication between managers and their employees. KEYNELink
helps coordinate, prepare for, track, and
document these discussions so that both employees
and managers stay on track and can make mid-course
corrections as necessary. |
