Hi, this is Bill Kasko , President and CEO of Frontline Source Group, Inc. a temporary staffing and direct hire employment placement agency based out of Dallas, TX. This week, I want to refer to an article that I recently read that explains how to turn your employees into rockstar performers on the job everyday. Edward Marshall, the author, is a change management consultant and leadership coach who serves as president of The Marshall Group Inc., a Chapel Hill , N.C., company. After 20 years of research he has come to the conclusion that every organization has at least three types of people - the Stars, the Turtles, and the Bad Apples. The goal of a high performance company is to have 80 percent of its people on fire 80 percent of the time. However, on average, companies are operating with 60 percent of the people at 30 percent.

Here are some things that can be done to get 80 percent of the work force on fire 80 percent of the time.

MAKING EVERYONE A STAR - THE 80-80 FORMULA

Align them on the strategy: It's one thing to have a meeting where the corporate strategy is presented; it's another to hold focus groups that explain the meaning of that strategy for every part of the business so that all employees can buy into it.
Create an ownership culture: People take care of what they own. Leadership can commit to building a culture where everyone has a stake in its future and where the people on the front lines and the middle help formulate direction.
Build two-way communications: If senior leadership truly listens to the work force and creates an open environment free from fear of retribution for what people say, then the untapped ideas, creativity and talents of people will begin to flow.
Engage everyone in teams: We get work done in teams, whether they are in a department or across groups on specific projects. Providing a common template for how people will collaborate in those teams will channel their energy.
Provide skills development: Give the work force opportunities to learn new skills. This says the company is committed to their professional development and the ownership culture.
