 Successful Performance Reviews Abeceder Associate Sue Heward continues her look at performance management and suggests a structure and the skills needed to ensure a performance review is successful for the employee, the manager and the organisation.
 The Managers Role in an Employee Assistance Programme Your company Employee Assistance Program (E.A.P.) can help you reduce lost-time injuries. In this article Safety World inc explain the role of managers in ensuring that an Employee Assistance Programme works effectively.
 Performance Management v Appraisals- What's in a name? In the first of two articles Abeceder Associate Sue Heward looks at the changes taking place in performance planning, assessment and management. Is the emergence of the term Performance Management just a new way of describing the appraisal or is it a fundamentally new process?
 When Good Workers Turn Bad…What’s keeping your people on the right track? In a world where we see so many people and projects go off-target, how can you make sure yours stay on the right track? Abeceder Associate Richard Pate explores how what has gone wrong in Iraq for the American military, and compares this to recent commercial scandals to identify how managers can stop their own teams from adopting an anything goes approach, so long as it achieves “the result”.
 Dealing with Rejection Abeceder managing director, Michael Millward offers some consolation to those who don't get the job offer and suggests some ways to learn from the experience
 The Entropy of Safety Audits Safety World inc explain how a concept in physics that describes how order in a closed system breaks down over time and justifies including your team in regular safety audits
 Do you know how much the lower paid section of your workforce really costs you? Business concerns expressed about retaining employees typically centre on specialist skills and key senior jobs; but, asks Abeceder Associate Linda Ryan, what about the lower graded section of the workforce, is this being managed as cost effectively as it could be? Employees at the lower end of the pay scale are key to business profitability, and employment policies designed to retain this group can generate real benefits.
