Once-a-Year Review? Try Weekly, Daily… – WSJ.com
“Some firms have found that the traditional once-a-year review is so flooded with information—appraising past performance, setting future goals, discussing pay—that workers have trouble absorbing it all, and instead dwell on criticism without really hearing constructive ways they can improve.”
As I wrote in my most recent post on “Assessing the real value of ‘Me'”, (http://ow.ly/6Eu5l), this is a huge problem. This article touches on one issue. Mine is about the lop sided nature of structured performance http://ow.ly/6Eu5lreviews and how collaborative analytics can help provide insight based on the merits of an employees work. In this case, Rypple provides the needed in-the-flow metrics.

Great piece by +Keith Swenson on the coming mish-mash of public and private data.
As I see it, we are going to need secure personal multi-tenancy systems as our hardware, software and storage usage in our personal and work lives start to converge.
And its a completely new system that I dont think we’ve thought through yet. But to satisfy the needs of seamless information access and leverage, and privacy and regulatory needs of organizations we work for, compliance is going to need a overhaul. Im no expert on this topic but its going to take encryption, partition and other methods not just from a general purpose security provider but also be embedded inside apps so every element of stack plays nice.
Confusing, even overwhelming but interesting times…..
