Four Long Term Productivity Strategies: The Positive Side of Performance Improvement


Mention the term “performance improvement” to another office worker, especially if you’re in management or human resources, and they’re likely to fall silent or turn pale. No matter how it’s presented, most workers associate performance improvement with the “performance improvement plan,” a common method of putting workers on probation and collecting evidence against them before they’re terminated.

Fair or not, the concept of performance improvement has become connected with that sort of sting. But let’s think about it another way! Ambitious, progressive workers who are truly engaged with their work are always eager to improve performance. The best workers always look for some way to challenge themselves and stretch their abilities, rather than rest on their laurels.

So start inserting true personal improvement into your daily work-schedule if you haven’t already. Here are a few ways to do so.
