Are We Getting Better? An Introduction to the Experience Index
Large corporations use hundreds of metrics to gauge their ongoing performance and to try to get a bead on progress and how to affect it. The truth is most of the data points they observe are not giving them the information they need to make choices that drive performance. This paper looks at the Experience Index as a preferred statistical method of understanding, and driving, your business. The EI lets you focus on the key things that make a difference, rather than the many different things that are presumed to be important.
Performance-Based Selection versus Profiles
Profiling is a popular but critically flawed method of making hiring decisions employed by a number of large organizations. This paper describes the flaw and the preferred method of basing hiring decisions on the objective performance dimensions required for a particular job. While more rigorous and valid, performance-based selection does not require more time to implement or execute. In fact, you get better results through a more efficient hiring process.
