Performance-Based Selection, Ltd. (PBS) specializes in employee selection, development, and retention – particularly the measurement of skills, aptitudes, competencies, performance, and/or attitudes.

At year’s end, I can’t help but reflect on the prior year – both its successes and failures. Somehow, I have never accomplished quite as much as I had hoped, yet with reflection I also find gratitude – for the people I get to work alongside every day – my coworkers, my colleagues, and my clients. 

Throughout my career, I have given feedback as a supervisor, colleague, assessor, and coach. Yet, in the past few months, the vast majority of my time has been spent providing feedback to executives and professionals with lengthy tenures, accomplished careers, and impressive resumes. Challenging – you bet! Yet feedback is really the only way to calibrate our performance, to know whether the impact that we are having is what we intend – whether accomplished executive or newly hired employee.
