Performance management

What You Cannot Measure, You Cannot Manage

Based on one of the fundamental principles of Management by Peter Drucker, performance evaluation is the main challenge for most organizations. Ensuring the utmost performance is consistently delivered amongst the motivated workforce is not an easy task, and organizations’ concerns can be mostly summed up in questions like what to measure? How to measure, especially orienting intangible objectives? How to ensure objectivity and avoid human bias? How to link payment to performance? How to link performance to development? LOGIC Consulting founded its customized performance evaluation systems based on two pillars: “The What” indicating the individual’s SMART objectives, and “The How” indicating the individual’s behavioral competencies represented while achieving their objectives. The implementation of said pillars includes the management process’ policies and procedures write-up, illustrating the criteria that link the individual’s actual performance with their development needs, and other criteria linking the achieved individual performance rating with their annual salary increase percentage.

Our Organizational Development & Management Consulting Team In Action

To ensure the effective implementation of the Performance Management system, LOGIC Consulting conducts workshops to train eligible managers on how to develop SMART individual objectives, and how to conduct effective appraisal sessions that lie in providing constructive feedback on both the achieved objectives, the demonstrated behavioral competencies, and recommending development initiatives.

Culture transformation

Organizational Development Culture Inventory

Managing company culture is the most pivotal challenge facing organizational leaders. On one end of the scale, managers can create cultures that provide competitive advantages for their organizations.

On the other end of the scale, the managers, possibly unknowingly, can promote cultures that drive their companies out of business. But is your organization’s culture an asset or a liability? Acknowledging that an organization’s culture is the foundation of the values and behaviors that contribute to the organization’s working environment, LOGIC Consulting certified experts use the Organizational Culture Inventory® (OCI): the most widely used and thoroughly researched tool for measuring organizational culture in the world.

Developed by Drs. Robert A. Cooke and J. Clayton Lafferty, the OCI provide an assessment of the Current Operating Culture in terms of the behaviors that are required from the employee to ‘fit in and meet expectations within their organization.

The “Ideal Culture” represents the culture that derives and accelerates the long-term effectiveness of the organization. The results are presented together in a comprehensive feedback report that tells the story of how an organization’s culture really works, and where disconnections occur.

Roadmap For Change

Based on the gap assessment, LOGIC Consulting devises a roadmap for cultural transformation to drive a healthy prevalent culture including setting goals, measuring KPIs, and having continuous feedback loops to ensure culture development strategies are on track.
