HR Does the Heavy Lifting
Tim Welcer, Vice President Human Resources, participated in the Topgrading Train-the-Trainer program and, with the support of Chris Mursau, conducted a number of Topgrading Workshops. Welcer went on to conduct well-received Topgrading Workshops all over the world, training managers all the way down through those reporting to plant managers.
The organization's HR department has taken the primary Topgrading materials and translated them into local language formats for many countries where they conduct business. Managers are aware that the CEO, President/COO, and/or Business Unit executives will request to review Topgrading reports during visits to audit the process as well as use the reports to learn about the new hires before meeting them.
As they travel and as time permits, Welcer and others often participate in local-country interviews as observers to calibrate the effectiveness of those team members conducting the Tandem Topgrading Interviews.
