Six Sigma is a management technique that seeks to drive defects to less than 3.4 defects per
million. Defects are defined as any non-conformance to customer specifications. Once the
causes of defects are identified, processes are modified to avoid the causes. However, many
companies fail to have systems and processes to assure the human performance component of
the processes!
PerformanceWare and the other Roster Network products and services create the
opportunity to optimize your hiring and other HR processes to support Six Sigma or
other quality system initiative with technologies and processes for...
• Understandable, objective and measurable position requirements and
performance standards
• Hiring and candidate selection processes driven by the position requirements
• Identifying leaders for management positions
• Effective, objective and accurate performance appraisals
• Focusing training and development programs on specific position
requirements and individual performance
• Integrating individual performance with overall performance and quality
management system
• Eliminating waste and inefficiencies
• Tracking and measuring continuous improvement in your HR processes
Assuring the quality and effectiveness of your hiring and HR processes will improve the quality
and profitability of your entire organization! No matter how automated your processes, people
still make sales, design the products, program and maintain robotics, provide customer service
and develop continuous improvement. Having the right people with the right training in the right
job who are held accountable to specific job standards will do more than anything to improve
quality and profitability.

The concept of the Position Matrix Communication System is simple and straight forward. The
Position Matrix is a one page living document that creates an objective and comprehensible job
description. The employee, his supervisor and the persons affected by his work all commit to
that job description and then follow it with periodic appraisals which evaluate the employee’s
performance against that description. The forms are easy to use and flexible so that the
description of the job can change with the needs of the company. Finally, the Position Matrix
record is maintained as a memorialization of the performance requirements of the job and the
employee’s performance as measured against those requirements.
The Position Matrix is a dynamic tool. It will change as often as job responsibilities change. It
is not to be completed, filed, and forgotten until next year, but should be used constantly as a
checklist to ensure the position incumbent is accomplishing key goals; and it should be
modified as those goals change and as new opportunities arise. Accordingly, the Position
Matrix is a tool to promote true empowerment of employees. They should be encouraged to
change their Position Matrix as often as need be. If they develop a better way to do something
or see a new way to add value, all they have to do is revise their Position Matrix and get their
supervisors and key impacts (those co-workers affected by their work) to agree to the change.

If the manger is incompetent or otherwise not up to the task, the company is wasting his or her
salary and achieving far less than optimum performance from the people reporting to the
manager! All of this leads to poor quality and profitability and yet can be avoided when the
same proven concepts which have been applied for years in the production quality systems are
applied to the hiring process!

to...
To embed continuous improvement into each individual, they must initiate their own
performance appraisals with a self appraisal. The next step is an appraisal by the individuals
impacted by their work as identified by the Position Matrix. The supervisor then reviews both
appraisals and completes his or her appraisal of the employees performance. When offered
the opportunity, employees will time and time again be more objective in their appraisals and
seize the opportunity for continuous improvement.
