So why should you use MARS Perform and how does it work?
It’s a platform designed to be fast and easy to use with ongoing feedback for employees, thus reducing time consuming and dreaded annual or semi-annual reviews. And let’s face it, these days many employees don’t even make it to the one year mark. So then you’ve spent time and money on that employee and they might not even know if they were doing well or not. Now they’re gone and you need to do it again. If used properly, our platform should help with employee retention.
When a manager logs in, they have an overview dashboard of their team. Super admins see the entire company in one shot. They can filter down to a different set of employees, either sorted by job description, location, function, or whatever user-defined tags that company has.
The dashboard for a current month might look a little flat because it might not have data populated yet. As data is entered and scoring is forced, the charts start to fill up. If data is being entered frequently, let’s say weekly, an employee could log into their dashboard and see their progress. Once a month is complete, the manager finalizes the month and the employee dashboards are ready for review.
Managers and admins always have access to a playbook with helpful information on how the system works and how to use it. The link is right in their dashboard.
Link success with employees to tangibles, bonuses, company swag that’s earned, free meals, or whatever is right for you. If you’re doing bonuses, now you don’t have to do large year-end bonuses. Let them earn each month and they’ll probably appreciate it.
Give it a try. As opposed to almost all of our competitors, you don’t have to pay for a year up front, you don’t have to commit to a full year of use, and you don’t have to ask for permission to cancel your subscription.
