Effort’s Not the Issue – Misalignment Is
You’ve got a team of hard workers, but something’s still off. Goals are missed. Projects stall. Mid-year review time rolls around, and it’s clear: effort isn’t the issue, alignment is. In this session, Joe Rotella, SHRM-SCP, SPHR, unpacks the silent performance killer: misalignment between expectations, execution, and outcomes.
In this session, Joe Rotella, SHRM-SCP, SPHR, unpacks the silent performance killer: misalignment between expectations, execution, and outcomes.
From vague goals to inconsistent follow-through, he’ll examine why good employees sometimes produce disappointing results, and what managers can do before it shows up in a review. This isn’t about working harder. It’s about spotting the gaps early and creating a structure where effort leads to impact.
This session offers practical ways to spot and fix misalignment before it turns into a performance crisis and is ideal for teams heading into mid-year reviews or just working to regain focus.
Key topics include:
- Recognizing early warning signs of misalignment in goals, priorities, or behaviors
- How to reframe vague expectations into shared definitions of success
- Building routines that surface confusion before it becomes conflict
- Realigning without demotivating—keeping accountability and morale intact
