MindSolve and Palladium Develop Strategic Employee Performance Management Solutions

Companies looking for help executing strategy through improved management of human capital investments now have an integrated option thanks to an alliance between MindSolve Technologies, Inc., the pioneer in integrating employee performance management with business intelligence, and Palladium Group, Inc., the worldís leading authority on strategy execution.

MindSolve and Palladium have developed an integrated strategy-focused talent management offering. While organizations see the importance of developing every employeeís potential ó and acknowledge that every employeeís contribution can indeed improve organizational performance ó some jobs have a much greater impact on the organizationís strategy than others. Most talent management programs attempt to meet the needs of 100 percent of a company’s employees, thereby under investing in the jobs that really make a difference. The joint offering helps organizations focus on the critical job families that will drive the execution of business strategy says David Norton, president of Palladium.

Palladium starts by working with companies to translate their strategic goals and link them into clearly defined operational terms and processes by leveraging the Balanced Scorecard methodology. During this process, we also identify and map a human capital readiness strategy, says Norton. Organizations can then leverage MindSolve to help them execute their talent management strategy using MVP employee performance management software.

MVP provides a complete suite of employee performance management tools for enterprise users. The web-based solution includes goal alignment, performance appraisal, 360-degree feedback, development planning, and succession planning modules.

MindSolve General Manager Dan Boccabella, adds, This alliance with Palladium offers our users a powerful combination of employee performance management and corporate strategy alignment tools. The integration is unique in that it gives organizations a true enterprise-wide focus on executing strategy, allowing them to develop the best corporate strategy and then execute that strategy by driving business goals down to the level of the individual employee.
