Cornerstone People Solutions has launched an Online Performance Indicator (OPI) designed specifically for sales people in the travel industry. The online survey focuses on the three fundamental functions of a successful travel consultant and highlights their key area’s for development.

(TRAVPR.COM) AUSTRALIA  - 15th February, 2010 - The OPI is an affordable and easy to use tool for quality staff appraisals and focused individual development plans. Taking only 20 minutes to complete, the OPI generates a detailed report using a combination of manager and individual ratings.

66% of businesses find it difficult to identify, develop, engage and retain their talented people and many have no talent management strategy. This is often due to insufficient time, money and expertise to internally and pro-actively manage this emerging priority. By using the Cornerstone People Solutions OPI you can actively avoid being part of this 66%.

Cornerstone People Solutions Director Cassi Tormey said “the OPI is the perfect management tool that consultants and managers love. Consultants love it because they are given a clear picture of their strengths and weaknesses and the opportunity to create a personalised development plan. Managers love it because they have the opportunity to analyse their team members’ performance then conduct non-threatening conversations that lead to better performance and ultimately greater results”.

Cornerstone People Solutions will be launching the OPI through a series of informative breakfasts which will provide a comprehensive understanding of how the OPI works and how it can benefit your business. The launches will be held from 8:30 to 10:00am at the following locations:

2nd March – Ballarat
3rd March – Preston
4th March – Brighton
16th March – Melbourne City
17th March – Geelong
23rd March – Mornington
30th March – Maribyrnong
