Interesting info on the Do's and Don'ts as the title of this article indicates.  Sometimes just need the reminder.   Kind of interesting how we (all businesses, organizations and agencies) seem to understand how bad these things are but just keep doing them (wrong) anyway

I found the pay for performance interesting as often time an employee needs to meet certain "basic" expectations in a review to get a raise. If they don't get the review they want and are in a union then it can be grieved. I wonder if this is why most managers of union employees don't bother to give accurate reviews because it creates more paper work and documentation of a job they don't want to do anyway (performance reviews)

The pay for performance seems to the norm in the past three organizations I have worked for. The mistake pointed out in this part is accurate, small difference in percentages between performers only goes to promote an imbalance between team members.

Good article to remind one what to look for in employees and self. One of the aspects of the behavioral interview for leadership in my organization focuses on servant leadership questions. It is hard to leaders others when "what's in it for me" is the primary focus.

Hi Jen, I love this article! Though it's the hard truth that many times we see people promoted over us that do not display this characteristics. However, when I think about the best leaders or the people I would pick to work with in a team, they definitely display these characteristics.

The articles discusses the benefits gained from a strong onboarding process. More importantly, it addresses that onboarding is not successful when it is regarded as a one or two day process. It is ongoing processes for several months.
