from mastering business-building skills to people-building skills.<\/strong><\/p>\n by marc rosenberg<\/i><\/p>\n there are many ways to measure the performance of staff on the path to making partner.<\/p>\n more: <\/b>making partner: what managers need to know<\/a> | the 17 rules for making partner at a cpa firm<\/a> | who shouldn\u2019t be a partner?<\/a> | nine reasons people are promoted to partner<\/a> | how to make partner?<\/a> as is my style, i will present far more measures than most firms actually use. but i doubt you\u2019ll perceive any of the methods here as unimportant. they are not listed in any particular order of importance.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n stellar performance appraisals.<\/strong> this includes oral feedback that is shared among the partners.<\/p>\n masterful management of client responsibility.<\/strong> before staff are considered for partner, they should have been assigned a small client base to manage. this includes performing the work, managing client relationships and attending to all the administrative aspects of engagement management, such as billing, collection and planning.<\/p>\n mastery is evidenced by the following:<\/p>\n skillful management of staff.<\/strong><\/p>\n business development.<\/strong> potential partners are both active in business development activities and successful in originating business. they demonstrate a healthy, positive attitude toward bringing in business.<\/p>\n technical skills.<\/strong><\/p>\n productivity.<\/strong> achieves the firm\u2019s targeted billable hours at strong levels of realization consistently for many years. productivity also relates to nonbillable activities such as staff management, billing, collection and performance of assigned firmwide projects.<\/p>\n specialization.<\/strong> over time, the partner potential has acquired one or more specialized skills and\/or industry expertise and is considered a go-to person in these areas by the firm.<\/p>\n the baseball umpire\u2019s credo:<\/strong> the partner potential is mobile, assertive and loud. he or she speaks up at partner meetings and is influential, assertive and self-confident. the person seeks responsibility.<\/p>\n strong work ethic.<\/strong> the partner potential is willing and able to work extra hours to get the job done, ensuring that clients\u2019 needs and deadlines are met.<\/p>\n \u201ci think nothing is more important than what a firm does to create partners. i mean from day 1 of someone\u2019s career. or maybe when a person is identified as a star. it\u2019s critical what the firm does to nurture that person so that they become a partner someday.\u201d \u2013 harry steindler, partner, michaelsilver (chicago)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n here is what the best firms do to create a path to partnership. these practices are not ranked strictly, but items at the top of the list are more common and effective than those toward the bottom. however, all the items are important.<\/p>\n some firms are concerned that giving certain staff star treatment will alienate average or marginal staff. get over it. giving special attention to your above-average staff is far more important than appeasing the ordinary or marginal people. besides, if you compensate the stars the same as the others, it will upset the stars. you can\u2019t win!<\/p>\n treat your stars like partners before they actually become partners. let them lead. keep them engaged. err on the side of promoting them too soon.<\/p>\n from mastering business-building skills to people-building skills.<\/strong>
