  9. District Manager Results • Correlations with Gross Margin and Revenue NOT statistically significant for most competencies • Managing Diversity negatively correlated with Margin & Revenue • Gross Margin r = -.39 (p<.05) • Revenue r = -.37 (p<.05)

  10. District Manager Results • Service Plan and Accessory Sales strongly related to 360 Results for DMs • Strongest Relationships with Accessory Sales were • Managing Diversity r=.61 • Self Knowledge r=.52 • Bldg Effective Teams r=.51 • Strongest Relationships with Service plan Sales were • Drive for Results r=.55 • Bldg Effective Teams r=.59 • Managing Diversity r=.49

  13. Store Manager Results • All correlations positive and most statistically significant • Again, accessory and service plan correlations stronger than those with Revenue & Gross Margin • Overall, correlation coefficients much smaller than for DMs

  14. Why are correlations for Dist. Mgrs larger than for Store Managers? • Frequent movement of Store Mgrs • Sophistication of Raters • Quality of items included in the survey

  15. District Mgr. Items Focuses attention and energy on factors critical to success Sets high standards and expectations for him/herself Consistently meets aggressive timelines as established by self or others Mobilizes others as a way to accomplish difficult tasks Consistently follows through on his/her commitments Store Mgr. Items Creates and executes plans to improve store performance Has a sense of urgency, passion, and energy Accepts nothing less than our best effort every day; strives for excellence Sample Items: Drive for Results

  16. Summary/Learnings • 360 does relate to important Company outcomes – especially those more directly impacted by manager behavior • Rigor in item development pays off later • Don’t assume the process is purely developmental – identify outcomes most likely to be impacted and build a measurement plan early • Shape best practices to work with culture
