It’s the same with software. Your direct manager should know if their employee is in the bottom 10%. If they don’t, they aren’t doing their job or they have too many reports.
What constant automated monitoring allows is cutting back on the number of managers and like you said, pushing high performers even further.
- danpalmer 2y agoThat depends what you consider monitoring to be. Managers don't just know these things, they aren't walking the floor watching people, they're busy doing things. Their source of knowing these things is often looking at data for the number of things processed, or in some cases failure rates. You're right that this doesn't need to be constant or even that automated though.
