Get Rid of the Performance Review!: How Companies Can Stop Intimidating, Start Managing--and Focus on What Really Matters (Business Plus)

The performance review. It is one of the most insidious, most damaging, and yet most ubiquitous of corporate activities. We all hate it. And yet nobody does anything about it.

Until now...

Straight-talking Sam Culbert, management guru and UCLA professor, minces no words as he puts managers on notice that -- with the performance review as their weapon of choice -- they have built a corporate culture based on intimidation and fear. Teaming up with Wall Street Journal Senior Editor Lawrence Rout, he shows us why performance reviews are bogus and how they undermine both creativity and productivity. And he puts a good deal of the blame squarely on human resources professionals, who perpetuate the very practice that they should be trying to eliminate.

But Culbert does more than merely tear down. He also offers a substitute -- the performance preview -- that will actually accomplish the tasks that performance reviews were supposed to, but never will: holding people accountable for their actions and their results, and giving managers and their employees the kind of feedback they need for improving their skills and to give the company more of what it needs.

With passion, humor, and a rare insight into what motivates all of us to do our best, Culbert offers all of us a chance to be better managers, better employees and, indeed, better people. Culbert has long said his goal is to make the world of work fit for human consumption. "Get Rid of the Performance Review!" shows us how to do just that.

So as you all know, i am cleaning out! I pulled all the shoes out of my closet and from around the house (56 in all) and decided to pair down. (No pun intended, it just worked out!) I get stressed out getting rid of, so Peanut was here to help out.

As i was decided between a particularly useful pair that i didn't like, and pair that weren't useful but i did like, Peanut decided this was her moment! She leaped to my shoulders for a bird's eye view, and purred there for quite a while.

You'll all be very proud of me, I got rid of more than 40 shoes! (Okay, 20 pairs, but doesn't 40 sound more productive?)

light a fire
dont go by the book
get rid of the scums
tells the faceless man
to the crook
here is the supari
no one will stop you
the other way
they will look
burn all their
belongings
nothing should
remain an evil
plan precooked
somebody
gained for sure
changed his outlook
a new bank balance
a new checkbook
the soul of humanity
drugged no tears
nothing shook
