Distinguish the parts of role-based performance indicators that must be standardised from those that require judgement.
Building Key Performance Indicators for Different Roles
An applied course in role-based performance indicators built around the decisions practitioners actually face.
Course Overview
Most disputes about role-based performance indicators begin as a conversation that was handled badly. Policy on this strand of people management and development is judged by how it is applied in the difficult cases, not the easy ones. Participants gain a realistic view of what this area of people management and development costs and what it returns. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a people policy for role-based performance indicators as they go. The programme converts the people management and development discipline from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. Applied research in people management and development consistently shows that early structure around the wider people management and development agenda reduces downstream rework. Teams frequently over-invest in documenting role-based performance indicators and under-invest in testing it. Participants come from operational and oversight roles, and both perspectives on this strand of people management and development are used deliberately. The programme closes with an action plan for this aspect of people management and development that each participant writes for their own organisation.
