The following is a concurrent session from the ALFA 2011 Conference & Expo, April 5, 2011 in Orlando, Florida.

Description:
Exceptional performance is the perfect alignment of skills, rewards, feedback, management style, measurement and culture. Keeping employees engaged today requires staying in-tune with what is most important to employees, finding ways to creatively match performance measures with their motivation factors.
