Target

Result

Comments

Financial

$8,000 sales revenue per month

$5,000 average over six months

This low target was set for an initial period of six months. You would expect an employee to reach a target of $10,000 at this stage.

Customer focus

8/10 score on customer focus

5/10 score

The employee is personable and tries hard to develop a rapport with customers. Customers and staff respond well to the employee. However, staff cannot rely on the employee to support them and they are constantly being asked for product information that the employee should know already. Customers are initially attracted to the employee’s friendly manner but are quickly turned off by her unserious attitude. Customers do not have confidence in this employee’s ability to help them choose a product that will meet their needs. Customers who do stick with the employee must then wait longer to complete their purchases.

Internal process efficiency

Two minutes to complete sales transaction

Average five minutes

The employee has never mastered the point-of-sale system; consequently they make errors that need to be corrected before completing transactions.

Learning and development

20–30 training hours

Seven training hours

The employee, while expressing initial enthusiasm for the role, has not made any sustained effort to learn the basic skills and knowledge necessary to reach targets, although the employee attended a one-day rapport-building workshop. The employee appears to feel that they will learn by casual experience without any effort or that they can constantly rely on others to help.
