\u201cIt\u2019s astounding to find out that two-thirds of employees believe their performance process is a waste of time and as a result, most of them do not trust HR,\u201d said Josh Bersin, global HR industry analyst. \u201cThis is a loud wake-up call to redesign this process and focus our energy on development, coaching, alignment, and teamwork.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n The Betterworks survey identified what matters most to employees so employers can minimize the likelihood and costs of staff turnover and realize a happier and more productive workforce:<\/span><\/p>\n #1: Fairness matters, yet employees see bias: <\/b>Despite the \u201cquiet quitting\u201d trend, most employees feel productive and confident overall, but fairness is the most important factor in the employee experience. Despite 46% saying their companies had made changes to their performance management process or technology since 2020, fewer than one in three\u00a0 employees think performance reviews are \u201cvery fair and equitable,\u201d and 64% see them as a \u201cpartial or complete waste of time that doesn\u2019t help them perform better. \u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n #2: Feelings of bias damage employee sentiment and erode trust: <\/b>Employees who see performance as very biased are 2.5 times as likely to be looking for work. By contrast, productivity is 23% higher among employees who say reviews are very fair versus those who say reviews are very biased. Similarly, when reviews are considered very fair, engagement is 14% higher and feelings of belonging and being valued are 60% higher.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n When employees view performance management as a success, trust in HR and organizational leaders quadruples, while trust in managers doubles. However, when performance management is seen as a failure, trust declines 31% for managers, 37% for organizational leaders, and 39% for HR.<\/span><\/p>\n #3: Most employees want to stay and bloom where they are planted, but almost half see a dead-end at their companies:<\/b> Less than half see a path to advance internally, and 46% of employees say they don\u2019t feel their company supports their career aspirations. Only one-third feel their organizations fully support them in both their performance and career aspirations. Given that employees ranked \u201cinternal career advancement\u201d as the second highest reason they would stay (41%) and career growth is one of the top five indicators of a good employee experience, if companies fail to deliver, their employees are more likely to leave.<\/span><\/p>\n #4: Managers are central to employee experience and retention and require more support from HR to coach for career development: <\/b>Employees say they want better and more frequent conversations with their managers about career development. Just over half of managers (54%) feel confident coaching for career development. Better organizational support is necessary for managers in this area. The report shows that frequent conversations and check-ins between managers and employees yield higher levels of employee productivity and engagement and feelings of belonging and satisfaction working for their company<\/span>. <\/b>Employees who are satisfied with their career development check-ins are 7.5 times more likely to see a path internally for development.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cEmployees want to receive back from their employers what they feel they\u2019ve put in, and they place a much higher value on things like fairness, culture, trust, belonging, and equity, along with career development and pay equity,\u201d said Doug Dennerline, CEO of Betterworks. \u201cOrganizations have to reimagine the employee deal to deliver on these expectations. Enabling better performance and career growth through modern performance enablement is a lever that organizations can pull that has an outsized impact on making work better and delivering better business outcomes.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n About Betterworks<\/b> Founded in 2013, Betterworks develops best-in-class performance management solutions that enable exceptional results and put employee experience at the heart of how companies align, motivate, retain, and develop their people.

workforce, exclusive new research insights on performance enablement, and a sneak peak of the new book, Make Work Better<\/em><\/a>, will take center stage during Betterworks' annual EmpowerHR <\/a>virtual event. The half-day conference will take place on April 19, 2023 from 9:00 a.m. to 2:10 p.m. Pacific Time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Betterworks, the leader in modern enterprise performance management solutions, announced that keynote speaker and Wall Street Journal Bestselling author Jenn Lim will kick off the event. Coined the \"happiness expert,\u201d Lim has done extensive research on how to create happier company cultures for a more profitable and sustainable approach to business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cMany people at all levels are disillusioned with work \u2014 employees, managers, HR, and executives,\u201d Betterworks CEO Doug Dennerline said. \u201cWe've all read the statistics about the levels of stress and how many want to quit. Instead of walking away, now is the time to lean in and rethink the approach to how we work. At EmpowerHR , we're going to share some findings from our new research, talk about the steps we can take to empower and enable a happier and high-performing workplace, and learn from other thought leaders about how they are successfully transforming work and culture to generate well-being and be more agile.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Imagine if every member of a workforce felt empowered and trusted to do their best work every day. That\u2019s what EmpowerHR is about; taking a holistic approach to HR transformation by focusing on three essential areas: the employee experience and expectations, manager development and enablement, and strategic HR and C-suite leadership. These concepts are explained in the soon-to-be-released book, Make Work Better<\/em>, which was co-authored by Dennerline and Jamie Aitken, Betterworks\u2019 VP of HR Transformation. Participants will receive a copy of the book, which is a how-to guide for establishing high-performing, human-centric organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The results from the Global State of Performance Enablement Survey, conducted across 2,000 people in the workforce, will also shed new, data-backed insights on how to enrich the employee experience, energize your people, and boost business outcomes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe\u2019re excited to bring leaders together from all over the globe for a common purpose: elevating your performance strategy,\u201d said Aitken. \u201cEmpowerHR was built to share both practical ways to boost employee engagement and strengthen employee-manager relationships, but to also unpack the broader vision of leading performance management transformation at work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Laurie Ruettimann, author and founder of the Punk Rock HR podcast<\/a>, will be the conference emcee. Joining her for various other sessions will be Humera Shahid (Chief Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Officer and VP Talent Development, Intuit), Paul Rubenstein (Chief People Officer, Visier), Andrea Lagan (Betterworks Chief Operations Officer), Arnaud Grunwald (Betterworks Chief Product Officer), and Ingrid Cullen (Betterworks Principal Customer Success Manager).<\/p>\n\n\n\n For those who attend, SHRM and HRCI credits will be available for select sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Learn More<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n See the full EmpowerHR agenda and register here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
