PFP has only been instituted since July and I can see that Management wants toforce the Union into the same mold and we are resisting mightily. I respect all the knowledge contained in subscribers to this list and I am hoping someone out there along with you can help me to get enough information to either further the SBU concept and benefit all employees or conversely help me get rid of it. Everything I have read here gives me the impression that forcing competition between teams aka SBUs is bad as is Pay for Performance. Please give me you expertise on both issues as the jobs of many, many people are on the line because of our experimentation. Unfortunately, it has become more and more management and as a result the Union has been pushed into agreeing to a Managed Competition project with in our Child Support Enforcement Division.
Nothing is done by consensus.
Help, help, help. AND your internet provider gives access to newsgroups. Over the last few months there's been allot of action on threads concerning performance appraisals and pay for performance issues. I've been in public human services for over 28 years. There are many books, articles and videos on this subject.
