Do you ever wonder if the meetings you have with employees are effective?
See if this sounds familiar… You hold a meeting intending to motivate employees and get everyone working together as a team to do their best. You talk. They listen. They may seem interested, or at least they nod their heads in the right places, but then. . . . they go out and do the same old things and nothing has changed. Ugh!!!
It’s the same problem, and I hear it over and over from small business owners. Quite honestly, I’m very worried for those of you struggling with this.
Congratulations! You have found and hired an A-Player employee. This employee is exceeding your expectations in lots of different ways. It feels too good to be true! You may already be hearing a nagging voice in your head, asking, “Just how will you hang on to this really good talent?”
Most business owners dread performance evaluations. Here are some tips to make performance evaluations not only easier, but more meaningful:
Do employee evaluations on employee anniversary dates, rather than trying to do them all at once during a certain time of year. Doing more than a couple evaluations at a time is overwhelming for even the best of business owners.
Growing your rural business requires hiring and keeping great employees who are motivated, resourceful and highly productive. A team of mediocre, partially engaged, somewhat productive employees is the slow kiss of death for a small business.
