National retail chain Human Resources Managing Consultant \u2013 5 year project.
\nDeveloped all HR policies and procedures, performance development, training and management systems \u201c\u2026.strategy of devising a system that allowed managers to encourage and develop people to become high performers and then retain them.\u201d Phillippa developed \u201cfrom scratch and rolled out the competency system. The competencies revolve around behaviours we want to see which are linked into our core values.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOver time we found the competency system delivered many things: it has created an environment where management can communicate competently with employees in a non-threatening way to achieve changes: given us the opportunity to reward those who embraced the same values as ours and demonstrated the behaviours that ensured the success of the Company; helped create a culture of high performance: an opportunity to deal with performance and behaviours that fell below our standards. We also found a few challenges on the way. Managers\u2019 initial reactions were \u201cwe already talk to them on the floor\u201d, acceptance and understanding like any change took time. When they first undertook to do the competencies they all rushed through the initial process as they were not used to talking about things in such depth, coaching took care of this and a more comprehensive workshop was delivered to train Managers.<\/p>\n
The results and benefits from the past four years have been nothing but outstanding: problems in the branches have reduced dramatically: we now have linked pay rises to passing competencies which has stopped individuals demanding CPI increases or tenure increases on unmeasured performance: new team members \u2018catch\u2019 the culture quicker: from the recruitment stage employees are consistently impressed by the ongoing commitment to learning (we have had people choose us over others simply because we are organised and have a system); our teams now have a voice and the confidence to check superiors behaviours if they don\u2019t align with Company values: it is easier and quicker to see that a team member doesn\u2019t fit in; in employment disputes we have successfully shown through this system solid evidence proving we did everything possible to help the employee.<\/p>\n
We have also found some of our people on completing the competencies advance to start tertiary equivalent qualifications; we now receive letters monthly acknowledging individual\u2019s service which is directly attributable to the competencies; our employee turnover is below the industry standard, (and a number who have left for more money and titled roles have come back to \u2018decent systems and respect for people and the work they do,) and finally the teams in the branches have a lot of fun being high performers .\u201d
\nOverall, we have moved a long way towards achieving our mission through our systems, of which the competencies are the backbone.\u201d
