Schedule a callWhat is Performance Management?
Employee Performance Management is aligning organizational objectives with employees’ skills, competency requirements, development plans, and measured results. Emphasizing on improvement, and learning and development in order to achieve the overall business strategy to create a high performing workforce. Performance management is more than an annual appraisal meeting, as it’s the managers responsibility to continuously communicate expectations, define duties, and help their employees accomplish strategic objectives. Managing employee performance deals with an organization’s strategy, policy and practices with respect to establishing performance expectations for its employees, along with measuring and monitoring the results.
How Can Strategic Workforce Innovations Help?
The HR department is key to efficient administration of the performance management system, and having an educated HR team that is well-prepared to train the organization’s managers and to assist them when issues arise is critical. SWI can help by either providing a training program for managers or current HR staff, and evaluating your current performance management system to determine if it is effective.
Training includes facilitation and discussion centered around ensuring goals and objectives are set properly, identifying common performance rating errors, setting SMART goals and objectives, and teaching HR staff on how to effectively role out a performance management process, as well as implementing progressive discipline (defined below). SWI will also audit and evaluate your current Performance Management System to identify opportunities for improvements.
Perception is reality when it comes to employee and managerial acceptance of a performance management process. A good way to determine whether the system is being used consistently and administered fairly is to conduct an independent audit of the way the appraisal system affects various groups of employees. SWI will monitor the system outcomes to make certain that all employees are being treated in a consistent and fair manner, and that the system is supporting organizational goals.
