It has been our experience that the Outcome Performance Evaluation truly carries an outcome orientation throughout an organization. There is a sense of everyone moving toward the same overall goals, while working on individual outcomes that have meaning to themselves, their departments or programs, and the organization as a whole. Incremental improvement provides an environment where quantum leaps can happen. And paradoxically, quantum leaps provide the motivation that allows an environment of continuous improvement to be maintained.
Small successes lead to larger success.
This is the key to motivation through time. Because of this, it is important that everyone on the team knows very clearly the overall purpose, mission, and important outcomes of the organization. Each department or program will want to have their own outcomes. We have found that when employees are aware of the organization's outcomes and their importance, they will develop individual outcomes that support those goals. With the Outcome Performance Evaluation system, the organization will have in place a measurement system that can be used for tracking outcomes at all three levels.
