In this episode, Molly challenges outdated annual reviews by introducing employee growth plans and incentive-based compensation tailored to individual motivators. She shares how law firms can shift to quarterly evaluations, driving accountability, engagement, and alignment with firm goals. Tune in for actionable strategies to build a high-performing, empowered team culture.   Key Takeaways:   Shift from annual performance reviews to quarterly evaluations to enhance employee motivation and continuous improvement. Align individual employee growth plans with the overarching goals of the firm to ensure cohesive progress and success. Introduce gamified and personalized incentive-based compensation structures that resonate with the unique motivations of each team member. Engage in collaborative discussions to identify what incentivizes team members beyond monetary compensation. Foster a culture of accountability, continuous development, and excitement within law firms through strategic leadership practices.   Quote for the Show: "The annual review is a load of crap, highly ineffective...Think about it. You are upleveling four times a year (with employee growth plans) versus once a year." - Molly McGrath   Links: Website: https://hiringandempowering.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hiringandempowering Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hiringandempowering LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/hiring&empoweringsolutions/ Law Firm Admin Bootcamp: https://www.lawfirmadminbootcamp.com/ Get Fix My Boss Book: https://amzn.to/3PCeEhk   Ways to Tune In: Amazon Music - https://www.amazon.com/Hiring-and-Empowering-Solutions/dp/B08JJSLJ7N Apple Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hiring-and-empowering-solutions/id1460184599 Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/3oIfsDDnEDDkcumTCygHDH Stitcher - https://www.stitcher.com/show/hiring-and-empowering-solutions YouTube - https://youtu.be/DWP07UIR-Yg
