On June 30 2018, 21 mediaReach OMD Nigeria managers participated in a one – day Managing Performance and Reward Workshop designed and facilitated by Human Edge Limited.

 The workshop, which is part of the Human Edge POLCON management development series, was intended to equip participants with advanced goal-setting skills.

It also provided participants with the opportunity to work together to identify and resolve some of the performance management challenges currently facing the agency.

According to the lead facilitator, Mr. Folarin Longe of Human Edge, the workshop gave participants the tools required to address one of the biggest  challenges in performance management  – how to vertically align strategic goals and objectives with individual performance goals or KPIs.

Mr. Longe, who is also the HR Advisor to OMG trademark companies in West and Central Africa, further explained that pursuing this kind of alignment was necessary because all too often KPIS are created without reference to an organization’s strategic goals and objectives.

When this happens he said, “People may be quite busy working towards well-constructed KPIS, but their efforts will not lead to outcomes or results that matter strategically and move the organization forward.”

The program was co-facilitated by Mr. Osah Aruoture of the consulting firm’s Staffing Services division.

According to Mr. H. O. Ajumogobia, A & O’s senior partner, the two-day Visioning Workshop was an opportunity for members of the firm to “reflect on where we’re coming from and where we’re going to.”

Partners and other members of the firm’s leadership team participated in the one-day Leadership Forum during which a number of strategic business issues were deliberated upon.

Both the Leadership Forum and Visioning Workshop were designed and facilitated by Human Edge Limited.
