Summary

Today's buzz: Empowering managers. Want to improve your organization's performance management? If you're focusing on HR processes, but not your managers' POV or day-to-day style, listen-up! SAP and Baylor University researchers studied best practices, tools, and processes that empower natural manager behavior to make better performance-based job assignments, promotions, and pay decisions. The experts speak. Dr. Gary Carini, Baylor: "We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard…" (John F. Kennedy). Hannah King, Baylor MBA: "Nothing is more unequal than the equal treatment of unequal people" (Thomas Jefferson). Kevin Mitchell, Baylor MBA: "The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance - it is the illusion of knowledge" (Daniel J. Boorstin). Dr. Gabriela Burlacu, SAP: "When you win, sometimes it overshadows a poor performance" (Duke's "Coach K"). Join us for Employee Performance: Empowering Managers.
