This is a YouTube video titled "Why junior team members fear scorecards - needlessly" containing a monologue or talk recorded on January 2, 2024, discussing the reasons junior employees often complain about scorecards and KPIs, emphasizing the importance of understanding company goals to reduce micromanagement and improve mastery.
We get feedback every single day from our clients, and we know who's giving us this feedback. And you see all the time, and it's frustrating for me personally, you see all the time, junior people complaining about scorecards and KPIs. Why are they doing this? And the answer is, well, if everything's going well, they don't have to ask you questions, right? If everything's going well, they can let you do what you want to do, and you can sort of figure out how to do this, the best way for you to do it. And so this eliminates micromanagement. It doesn't mean micromanaging. Right. And so just helping people understand why you do the things that you do and why these things matter, ultimately, you know, that's true mastery, is to be able to explain this bloody thing that's your company and where it's going and why you do the things you do. And then that makes it easier for them to say, okay, I get that. And by the way, this doesn't make sense. Oh, that's an amazing point. I wish I would have seen that earlier. Thank you.
