The government buys lots of services…but not all service contracts work the same way. There are personal services, non-personal services, Service Contract services, advisory services, and so on. We have a whole podcast playlist just for service contracts.One common type of services is Professional Services. These services are defined as having a “recognized status based upon acquiring professional knowledge through prolonged study.” In other words, these are skilled services that require expertise, education, and/or time to master.  The level of expertise, education and time can impact how much a “professional” is paid for said services. How then does the government know what a reasonable rate is for these services?Enter: The Evaluation of Compensation for Professional Employees (52.222-46).This clause is critical for evaluating professional services. As the government continues to rely on professional expertise of contractors, both government and industry need to understand the requirement for, and application of, this clause. In this episode, Kevin is joined by Joe Luetke from Skyway to explain the why, how and what of the Professional Compensation clause.

In this episode's discussions around the Community Table:  We start with an attorney who wants to create a fair referral compensation policy for his associate, a “grinder” who does everything asked. Recently, through a contact, the associate started bringing in new business. How does a firm set up a referral fee schedule? What's fair to the associate and the firm? How to create effective, inviting “meet the attorney” videos as a relationship-building step with potential clients. What to include? What topics? How personal? Where do you post them on your website, or do you control when a potential client sees these?  When it's time for a managing attorney or a director of operations, start by understanding the duties of each position and the experiences needed. One position requires a background in law; the other needs experience running a business (that includes facilities management, finance, and the overall operation of your office).  Mentioned in This Episode: Robert's previous appearance on the Community Table “Community Table: Using Vacations to Strengthen Company Culture” WizeHire Legal Recruiting  LinkedIn Talent Solutions Join the next Community Table live.

In Episode 54 Mike continues the series on Common Sales Leadership Sins, and this time he touches the “third rail” — compensation!   If you have complacent salespeople, Mike argues that the very first place to look is at the compensation plan... And he claims to be the very first person to discover and publicly declare that the words COMPensation and COMPlacency start with the same four letters!   As the sales leader, you may be the very best at selecting and developing talent, arming, equipping, and enabling your team, coaching on sales skills and deals, and even at holding people accountable, BUT if your sales comp plan is incentivizing the wrong behaviors and is not driving the desired results, then you have a massive problem.   Mike unpacks his three big pet peeves when it comes to comp plans:   1. Plans that are too flat (not enough difference between what top and bottom-performers “earn”)   2. “Commission Annuities” (commission in name only, commission that really isn't variable, or paying people in perpetuity to service/renew accounts for deals that were sold years ago)   3. Not rewarding New Sales (paying the same rate/percentage in variable comp for renewing/servicing existing business as for the heavy lifting to develop true new business - major cross-sell/up-sell victories or acquiring net new customers)   Resources mentioned in this episode:   Mike's Article:  4 Very Common Causes for Lack of New Opportunity Creation    Supercharge Your Sales Leadership, October Event in Atlanta.
