Who's on the bus?

Top management guru and best-selling author Jim Collins quips : "If the bus is your company, and getting the right people is crucial to success — more important, even, than your strategy... and what do you do if you've got the wrong people on the bus? Or the right people doing the wrong things?"

I think that there are times when your most revered and most performing employee may have lost the golden touch or the zest. An aggressive Sales Eagle who wins account at will might become one average sales manager on promotion. A multi-faceted executive could get jaded if micromanaged to put all the eggs in one basket. And employees who thrive in a creative set-ups may choke when you tell them that rules and processes are sancrosant, which is the case in a big company.

How will you match great resources to right jobs?

Would these questions help in every performance appraisal ?? : What is the resource good at? What is the resource not good at? What does the resource love about his/her job? What does he/she hate about his/her job?

Now match your judgements with his or her observations on the same set of questions :What are you good at? What are you not good at? What do you love about your job? What do you really dislike about it?
