Areas of Interest and Services
This section of the website presents topics that I find intriguing and offer as services to organizations. Some of these are my academic areas of interest, thus they translate into services that I can provide as a consultant on a project basis.
This is an area that I find fascinating that has been seriously overlooked by many companies. Turnover rates have been turned into relatively deceptive numbers, that can lead a business into feeling comfortable when it truly has deeper problems.
This is one of the areas that can be highly impacted evidence-based practices. Powerful and effective selection systems work by ensuring that money spent on selecting new employees is done so that a business can receive the highest possible return on its investment.
Performance Measurement and Rewards
Making sure that rewarding and measuring employee performance is properly targeted is like jet fuel to a company. When handled well, the results can be incredible profits; when mismanaged, it’s a recipe for disaster.
Training is one of my main areas of specialization and a place that I have spent a large portion of my recent career working in. I have three major areas that can impact training issues that I focus on. These are as follows:
- Post-Training Evaluation
- Testing Effect
- Previous Ability or Experience
Leadership and Management
Having spent 12 years in different levels of management, I find the topic of how leaders influence subordinates to be intriguing. My personal philosophy is that a strong leader is able to foster influence in those that work for them, persuading and empowering employees to succeed, rather than simply issuing orders to be followed.
