KEY POINTS
3 challenges: 1. Goal setting not standardized; 2. Functional goals created in isolations; 3. No discipline to measure progress
Top Leaders are aligned on the timing to establish goals and each is business unit aligned on a common approach and tracking mechanism.
Different approaches for differ company roles
More standardized tool based on OKR
Kirstin Birner
THE LEGO GROUP
KEY POINTS
Classical approach, a top-down process: it starts with executives, then broken down into smaller teams
KPIs more on a team level than on individuals
The way we define performance is based on 2 checkpoints: one big process at the beginning of year (review, sharing feedback) and another one mid year
Phil Kendzior
BSW HEALTH
KEY POINTS
Different programs for different functional areas
What an individual is working on is never the same as at the beginning of the year
No value-based measurement of performance
Luca Bianchi
LEROY & MERLIN
KEY POINTS
We need to increase ability to measure
Goals:
Now everyone speaks the same language
What to improve: Too many OKRs, too long period; Competition vs Cooperation (Sponsors, MBO, etc); From Waterfall to Agile
Rupert Slezak
KEY POINTS
Performance has 2 main components: on the one hand there is business and company, and on the other hand we have individuals
Business must be easier to connect to KPIs
Stay away from being too technical
Having the clarity of what is going on and what to achieve is crucial
Culture based on trust is important not just coming from the top but also from the above
