The basis is Focus & Fun
Focus
Fun
Success
Focus
Focus is about going in the right direction. There are numerous distractions so you need Focus to bring you back on track, to bring you closer to your goals. Focus advances productivity and profitability.
Fun
Fun is the fuel, the power that drives you forward. It is the foundation for engagement, low absenteeism and turnover.
Focus & Fun
Both Focus and Fun are needed for success. Low Focus and high Fun give a lot of movement, but probably in the wrong direction. On the other side, Low Fun and high Focus are an energy drain. You need to optimize both. This is the role of James.
James
James gives you early visibility into where engagement and productivity are at risk. James quantifies the performance of each goal so it becomes clear where actions are needed.
Often we take actions too late. When we are already out of Fun or Focus for a while. When engagement and productivity are decreasing, and the risk of absenteeism and turnover increases.
The Matrix
The Fun/Focus Matrix is one of the James reports. It displays the scores for each goal individually.
The vertical axis represents the Fun score. It indicates whether working on a particular goal gives a positive or negative contribution to the energy balance. The horizontal axis shows the Focus score. Please note that both under- and overinvesting is an alert and might require a follow-up action.
Here you find more information on how to use the Matrix.
