Why employers should focus on productivity output rather than input | Talent Matters Podcast
One of the major mindset stumbling blocks for employers is the shift from being able to walk the floor and subconsciously measure performance based on the busyness of the office, to focusing on productivity in terms of output rather than input. What matters is that employees are doing what they need to do and producing the right output. However, it’s been a hard shift for some employers, which has led to this level of paranoia when it comes to employee productivity. Some are trying to measure productivity by how much an employee’s cursor moves, how long they spend online, and other arbitrary measurements. All this really translates to is an online version of the presenteeism that happened in offices around the globe prior to the pandemic. It’s productivity theatre. What is needed is an adjustment to the methods by which productivity is measured and that is on what is produced, however and wherever that happens. --- EP210 | Insights into key candidate motivations | Dave talks to…Cara O’Leary 🎧 https://open.spotify.com/episode/7F46KwBCOQ4sPP1RNzK8qH?si=HtzarHEKR3OViBbmeHafXQ 📖 https://wave-rs.co.uk/blog/dave-talks-to-cara-oleary-talent-matters-podcast/
