Bottom Up Targeting

§  Determine the amount of Management labor dollars you plan to spend for your team

§  Set the MLER target (usually between $3.5 and $4)

§  Determine Contribution Margin (MLER times Management Labor)

§  Determine Direct Labor by taking Contribution Margin divided by DLER minus $1(CM/(DLER-1))

§  Determine Gross Margin target by adding Direct Labor and Contribution Margin.

Ways To Improve Direct LER

§  Do you have the “right” people? Any bad apples?

§  Can you provide training to improve productivity?

§  Are you selling stuff that you do well?

§  Do you have the “right” clients?

§  Can management do a better job of “managing?”

§  Are you paying people the appropriate wage?

§  Do all employees know their productivity level and how they can improve it?

Ways To Improve Management LER

§  Communicate the Contribution Margin target that justifies Management Team comp.

§  No “Cousin Eddie” roles

§  Build Management Team one key hire at a time

§  Evaluate “blended roles” so that management is not staying “busy” with low value roles to avoid the high value tasks

§  Invest in training, daily huddles and feedback processes

What drives performance?

Teams with unequal pay won fewer games when pay differences were not connected to performance. But they won more games when differences in pay were based on players’ contributions.

Equity matters more than equality. Differences in pay aren’t a problem as long as they’re fair. When players are paid less than teammates who aren’t performing any better, jealousy, resentful, and discouragement often follow. When they’re paid less than teammates who deliver more value, they understand.

Owner Participation

1.  Owners should only participate in incentive plans when

1.  There are multiple owners that work in the business that each have different roles

2.  There are outside investors who do not work in the business

3.  You want to participate with other executive team members who are not owners

2.  Don’t do an incentive thinking it will change your performance.
