Have you ever been involved in a performance initiative where employees asked “why are we doing this?” Or they were apprehensive and resisted with strong push back. Or even worse, they flat out refused to cooperate altogether? To say this is a common occurrence in enterprise performance management would be an understatement. Creating a high performing organization involves numerous requirements, perhaps none more important than gaining employee acceptance.

While most will agree that managing performance is critical to the success of a business, strong resistance is often met when it comes to an initiative which entails scrutinizing the productivity of business units and employees. Often times, in the employees’ eyes, a performance improvement initiative is a negative reflection of their current performance. It may even come across as if their performance is being singled out, or that others are telling them how to do their job.

Priortizing Prevention

Enormous efforts and dollars are spent in production operations reacting to, containing, and solving problems. However, considerably more effort is needed in product design and manufacturing to prevent product failures, scrap, and other inefficiencies.
