Today we get to a 10th team tool you may want to bring into your conversations this fall. As I’ve written in the past four posts, teams which excel are great at both Relationships and Results.
On the performance front the work of Robert Mager and his performance tree can be invaluable in helping to shape our conversations:
Tool#10- Performance Tree - Mager
One of most powerful frameworks I have shared with leaders and their teams around performance is Mager’s Performance Tree.
Mager created the Performance Tree as a way to get to the root cause of performance issues. This is a valuable tool, and conversation prompt, for team members and their team leaders, particularly in a virtual setting.
Mager’s Performance Tree takes us step by step through a series of questions around the performance issue. Many times we are quick to jump to “Training” as the solution, when in fact a performance challenge may be due to resourcing, work flow or the environment.
What are you doing as a team to get to the root cause of performance issues?
I hope that you have enjoyed the Ten Things to Do With your Team this Fall series of posts. In case you missed them, do check out these other four posts: (insert urls for all)
