Cover of the HRinsidr guide How to Find Out What Your People Are Actually Worth, by Rob Sullivan, with 3 fillable worksheets

Most companies believe they know their people. The gap between that belief and reality costs them in two ways: they lose track of what their people have already achieved, and they never discover what their people could achieve. The first is how great employees end up on layoff lists, and the second is how they end up disengaged or working for someone else.

What’s Inside?

  • The Accomplishment Log: a quarterly record of what each person on your team actually delivered, with a number on every line.
  • The Contribution Record: three questions to ask and the totals to check before any name goes on a layoff list.
  • The Unused Skills Sheet: the talent you’re already paying for and have never asked about, found before you hire an outside vendor.
