Stars are not enough: The importance of aligning individual talent with company goals
Most organizations that I work with pay a lot of attention to the individual employee’s performance evaluation, but very little to the relationship between individual performance and organizational results. That’s why you will see a business full of “star performers” which is, itself, mediocre, despite all the “stars.” It’s as if they pay for effort and not accomplishment. Having great workers is not enough; their performance needs to be connected to the company’s goals.
