Recommendation

Dave Girouard, CEO of the personal finance start-up Upstart, provides a clear explanation of why senior leaders require a different kind of performance evaluation from other employees. The six criteria he suggests sound almost too simple and subjective, based as they are on the CEO’s sense of trust and confidence in each individual leader. Girouard seems to imply that, when judging those at the highest level of a company, gut feelings are more important than metrics. getAbstract recommends this thought-provoking article to senior executives and those involved in evaluating their performance.

Take-Aways

  • The best companies are committed to frequent, measurable evaluation of staff performance.
  • Traditional performance assessments, which compare employees, are ineffective at evaluating senior executives.
  • By definition, members of the senior leadership team fulfill unique roles and responsibilities, which makes the usual types of comparisons problematic.
