Greaux Events' Manager Extols Virtues of Top Performers

Metairie, LA, September 25, 2015 (Newswire.com) - “One of the most significant lessons I’ve learned in management is to invest as much in your people as you do other aspects of the business,” said Greaux Events’ director of operations. “When you care about your team, it is reflected in their efforts.”

The director of operations stated that top performers are generally those who produce anywhere from two to 10 times the results of others on the team. “At Greaux Events, these associates are the ones who truly add value to our firm,” he said. “Therefore we do all we can to identify, recognize, reward, and retain them.”

"One of the most significant lessons I've learned in management is to invest as much in your people as you do other aspects of the business,"

He suggested that to pinpoint which associates are delivering excellence, it is important to add measurable competencies. “You want to state your expectations clearly as part of each associate’s performance plan,” he noted. “Set measurable goals that can be evaluated frequently. It’s crucial to have objective metrics with which all team members can be assessed. It’s the only logical and fair way to assess who your go-getters really are.”

As the director of operations added, “Once you add this level of measurement, use tactics to recognize your team readily. Let people know why they’re being recognized. Encourage others to follow.”

We promote those who have shown strong dedication to meeting their goals.”

“We really coach all our team members on the ins and outs of our processes,” he added. “Some grasp them faster, but it’s more about motivation. If you have associates with drive, they’ll be willing to meet every challenge you put before them. That’s why we continually raise the bar. We are invested in observing who can clear it.”

In addition to advancement, the director of operations recommended contests with exciting rewards, such as travel, to further encourage team members to attain goals. “If you focus on objective measurements and coaching for your people, you increase your odds of developing top performers at every level,” he concluded. “If I was asked to identify my top performers, I would have to answer all of them. Each associate delivers his or her best every day.”
