Definition: Impact-Linked Evaluation measures supervisors not on activity volume but on the cultural and performance outcomes of their leadership.
Why it Matters: Without impact linkage, evaluations reward busywork instead of cultural consistency, allowing drift to persist.
Leadership Execution System Fix: An Execution System links evaluation criteria to execution outcomes—such as retention, QA alignment, and employee engagement.
Common Mistake: Treating “number of coaching sessions” as a success metric without checking their effect.
Related Concepts: Employee-Centric Evaluation, Leadership ROI, Leadership-Outcome Correlation, Execution Drift
Sample Usage: “Supervisors logged dozens of one-on-ones, but attrition didn’t improve. Impact-Linked Evaluation, embedded via the Execution System, exposed the gap.”
