The vast majority of companies are investing in performance management system improvements, but there is no appreciable difference in the actual performance of employees based on the type of performance management system used. Success today requires employees who are Enterprise Contributors; employees who perform well individually and effectively through others. CEB recommends focusing on enabling enterprise contribution through targeted rewards, culture, and employee development.
Andrew Gerkens's insight:
1. Infographic that outlines the top ten competencies of high performers in a networked environment 2. The Video that defines the Enterprise Contributor - a person who connects (and collaborates with others), contributes (feedback and support) and Consumes (ideas and support from others) across the organisation. Includes four enablers including performance management, development, compensation, recruitment and suggests the approach can deliver up to 30% greater productivity.

Andrew Gerkens's insight:
When we work out loud, we raise issues, solve problems, create solutions and develop shared understanding and meaning - together. Apart from the obvious link to social learning, working out loud helps create a culture where people can challenge assumptions - a key aspect of reflective practice

Six years ago few people believed that informal learning made much of a difference.
Andrew Gerkens's insight:
A great article about informal learning and the rise of social and other technologies that enable and support it. My favourite quote is right at the end, 'Working Smarter is not education for intellectual enrichment; it is how people get better at doing their jobs over time'. This quote speaks to my gut feeling, which is that we should spend less time talking about learning (which workers are interested in, but don't feel they have time to have it 'done' to them), and more time talking about performance. We should be leading with questions like, 'How can we help you solve your problems', 'How can we help you build the capabilities you need', 'What challenges are you facing'....Ultimately everything we do is about helping people perform and improve. Although learning is at the heart of this, it may not be the best language to lead with.

The Conversation Prism is a visual map of the social media landscape. It’s an ongoing study in digital ethnography that tracks dominant and promising social networks and organizes them by how they’re used in everyday life.

You have a conversation problem. And social networks have exacerbated it. People think they are conversing. Instead, they are commenting -- big difference. Here's why conversation and comments are not the same thing. By definition (Merriam Webster online) A comment is: a note explaining, illustrating, or criticizing the meaning of a writing; an observation or remark expressing an opinion or attitude; a judgment expressed indirectly. Conversation is: oral exchange of sentiments, observations, opinions, or ideas; an informal discussion of an issue by representatives of governments, institutions, or groups; or simply an exchange. Yet the two terms are used interchangeably. Here's why it matters. Media, networks, and marketing These are the three components businesses have used to traffic messages, find channel and partnership opportunities as well as extend their reach to their buyers' families and friends, and create commerce. To attract people to messages, organizations used information and content packaged as news on one side, and offers, discounts, promotions on the other. In the two-dimensional world of print, the only 3D add-on where the people in the room. What you shared was a physical thing -- a paper -- and then an audio-visual implementation of the same concept. Information and news coming to you through airwaves and images. People in front of the radio or the TV. Everyone listening to or watching a few channels, then processing the information by way of discussion. Sharing among people was a very different concept. Put "social" in front of those words Technology enabled and...

This is a fantastic example of just-in-time performance support, helping workers solve problems, in this case looking for a new job. I like how it makes it easy to connect with a range of resources (multiple channels/types) based on individual needs.
