This month, HR That Makes a Difference™, looks at strategies from Paul Sarvadi in Take Care of Your People related to employee performance improvement.
“The total performance of a company is the sum of the performance of the individuals who work within it. An effective human capital strategy should include a game plan for continuously cultivating each employee’s personal talent and skills.”
