Improve Employee Performance Idea 103 – February 18, 2010: Use Office Goals as a Motivating Tool

You probably have goals for your office. And most likely your employees all know what they are. But do you really use those goals on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis to motivate employees to do their best? If not, try these three ideas:

1. Explain how the achievement of office goals might reduce the number of complaints they receive from upper management

2. Explain how the achievement of office goals might increase the number of compliments they receive from customers

3. Explain how the achievement of office goals might lead to greater recognition for individuals and teams

KEY REMINDER: To improve employee performance, you have to conduct effective performance discussions, give effective performance feedback, reinforce employee performance, and use effective performance phrases to write effective performance appraisals.
