Managing the performance of employees involves making sure that your employees’ performance meets the expectations of your business and contributes to its goals.
It is a continuous process and the aim is to continually improve the performance of individuals and ultimately the business.
A high-performing workforce can help an organisation prosper in a competitive environment.
Performance management refers to both the informal, day-to-day management of individuals and teams by their immediate line manager and also the formal framework within which the performance of individuals and teams is assessed and improved.
A good performance management process will help everyone in an organisation to:
- know what your business is trying to achieve
- know the skills and competencies needed for the role
- know what is expected of an employee
- identify performance problems and allow you to deal with them
- know how an individual contributes to an organisation achieving its goals.
An effective performance management process can also form a vital part of the organisation’s Talent Management and Succession Planning processes.
