About the Author
Ask anyone who knows him and they will tell you that Roger Ferguson is not your typical “HR guy.” He is likely to be found leading a mid-afternoon trivia contest to keep workers in redundant functions energized and smiling. He once imitated Bob Dylan and sang the company’s strategic plan to a ballroom of 300 bankers. He prefers to be in the field learning about how HR can help improve profitability, not in an office writing policy. And if you really want to see him at his best, ask him to improve an operational process. His latest effort is performance appraisals.
“I believe that traditional, annual performance assessment is a very broken process. A simple return-on-investment calculation will show that most managers spend far too much time on a process that results in so little benefit. I am leading the charge to change the process, increase managerial productivity, and improve the quality of coaching in the workplace.”
Roger is well qualified to lead this effort as he has over 30 years of experience with two of the best employers in the world, JPMorgan Chase Bank and the Fluor Corporation. He has participated in leadership roles in both companies to revamp the performance assessment process. Roger began his career as a recruiter at Chase after obtaining degrees from Texas A&M University, spending almost twenty years in a number of operations, human resources, and talent development roles. He joined Fluor in 2000 and spent thirteen years designing and delivering training and other Human Resources initiatives in many global locations, including a two year assignment in Afghanistan supporting US warfighters. There he led the Fluor transition of personnel in Afghanistan and his teams accomplished the eighteen month mission in nine months, 100% ahead of schedule, saving the US Army client and taxpayers some fifty-three million dollars in redundant contactor expense. The client called the transition, “the most successful Transfer of Authority in US military history!” After returning from Afghanistan, Roger established iSi Human Resources Consulting, specializing in Big Five Performance Management; a creative and no-nonsense alternative to traditional, annual performance appraisal.
