After all this metric stuff, I’m much more in line with the idea of embracing the difficulty of assessment. What are the exact metrics I need to get promoted? There are none. I have heuristics for when it’s beneficial to reward an employee and increase their influence. Even I don’t fully understand them. Here’s some vague hints. Meet those, and you’ll be promoted.
At least it’s honest.
- bluGill 5y agoIt is also correct. Eventually you will have someone great who fails to meet one metric, but you need to promote them before they decide they aren't going to be rewarded and leave. Which is really what this is all about: ensuring people who you want to keep stick around. The pay you give someone is in part a reflection on how willing you are to leave. If my boss reduced my wage to minimum wage I wouldn't quit today, but you can be sure my top priority would be finding a new job. I know it is possible for me to feed my family on minimum wage, but I wouldn't like the lifestyle that means and I wouldn't like the snub.
