Based on your performance in helping the Board of Directors at St. Jessica's Urban Medical Center establish a performance measurement approach, the Board has asked you to stay on as a consultant to help them implement its new performance management program.

You have a sense that employees at various levels had no idea what the goals of the program were, and you have an uneasy feeling that, unless a number of activities precede implementation of the new program, it is destined for failure too.
