This management evaluation "X-Ray" has been designed to provide Synergy with enough basic information to conduct an analysis of your current business and provide you with a view of your business potential for the next twelve months. This evaluation will also assist you in identifying key areas where a minimal amount of effort can give you the best return on your investment of time and money.
While this evaluation is a good tool, it is not to be used as a replacement for a knowledgeable consultant who can "fine tune" and factor in other areas which are difficult to measure within the limits of a written evaluation model.
This business evaluation will focus on four major areas of management. If any one of these areas do not apply to you there will naturally be low scores. The four major areas of focus are:
1. People skills and motivation, 2. Goals, 3. Systems and efficiencies, 4. Results
For the purposes of this recruiting and retention evaluation, we will refer to your best employees or hiring prospects as "A's". (Typically, your "A's" will make up 15% of resources.). Your "B" referral sources will be the next level of resources (Ideally, you should have twice as many "B's" as "A's".) The remainder are "C's". A prospect is anyone who has expressed interest in a position and has given you a name and phone number. Please complete all appropriate portions of the Achievement Plus Profile as well. This will assist us in evaluating other important aspects of your system.
Pages two through four are required for the Management X-Ray. The remaining pages are helpful, but not required. The more information we have about your business and overall life goals, the better the analysis will be and the more we will be able to assist and provide input.
