Employee Growth
Tracking the CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) of your employees helps you understand their growth better. As it shows the annual “growth” rate of the employees you can compare the growth with other employees or past performances. This allows you to motivate employees to do even better or provide them with training if required. Tracking employee growth through CAGR is important as organisations have a review/ appraisal once a year and CAGR is the perfect tool to analyse annual performance. Spine HR Suite has an automatic CAGR calculator built in which calculates the CAGR of the given employee in an instant. You can also access reports and graphical representations of the performance.

Employee Training
Tracking the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of your employees also lets you know if any of your employees require training. The aim of using the CAGR technique is to analyse the annual growth and compare it to past years (generally). If the performance is better than last year, there has been positive growth and the employee is eligible for appraisal. But if the growth is not positive, employees might require motivation in the form of training. A positive CAGR also points towards efficient training methods over the last year.
