This week, I am planning on discussing the overall topic of performance management. Some folks feel this is a subject that is extremely important, but gets little attention. For me, this is where a great manager separates from just a good manager.
Wikipedia’s definition of Performance management is the process of assessing progress toward achieving predetermined goals. It involves building on that process, adding the relevant communication and action on the progress achieved against these predetermined goals helping organizations achieve their strategic goals.
This week’s series will over three parts of performance management:
- Performance Planning – the basics of setting expectations.
- Performance Coaching – the on-going day to day monitoring, discussing and coaching (feedback).
- Performance Appraisal – formal documentation of the past years performance and a high level setting of expectations for the next year.
