What Challenges Might Leaders Face with Performance Benchmarks?
While performance benchmarks are valuable, they come with challenges:
Unrealistic Expectations: Setting benchmarks that are too high can lead to stress and burnout. Resistance to Change: Leaders might resist benchmarks if they feel threatened by them or if they do not see their value. Data Reliability: Inaccurate or incomplete data can lead to misleading conclusions about performance. Overemphasis on Metrics: Focusing too much on quantitative benchmarks might overlook important qualitative aspects of leadership.
