How important is Performance Management (P.M.) in today’s high-flux organization?<\/h1>\n

Current business scenario across the globe is characterized by technological transformation, cross-border competition, younger workforce and economic uncertainty. Today\u2019s organizations need to be agile in order to succeed. People are the most valuable asset for any organization so for any organization to succeed it must ensure that its people capabilities are at an optimum level. Employee performance has a direct link to organizational performance. In a high-performing organization, the entire business value chain becomes more agile to adapt to the changing business environment which makes it easier for the organization to succeed. It is true in business, as in any sport, the team with the best players wins.<\/p>\n

Whose responsibility<\/a> is Performance Management?<\/h1>\n

Every\u00a0employee<\/strong>\u00a0in an organization should take ownership to manage and improve own performance. Every\u00a0line manager<\/strong>\u00a0should be responsible for the performance of their team or department and should be involved in continuous coaching and be providing feedback to employees to elevate their performance. The\u00a0HR\u00a0<\/strong>department should facilitate the entire process, ensure a consistent and fair process, train managers and employees and ensure they know their roles, and support performance improvement and training & development.<\/p>\n

What are the key gaps in current industry practices in managing employees\u2019 performance?<\/h1>\n

Although a majority of organizations have an appraisal process very few organizations have an effective performance management model. One of the biggest gaps I have seen is the lack of continuous coaching and feedback by line managers. Whilst usually there are many informal conversations on a day to day basis between the manager and the employee, organizations mainly fail to put down a process to ensure \u201cstructured conversations\u201d which makes it difficult to measure performance at the end of the year. I would attribute this to lack of training which can substantially improve this aspect. Another gap that I have noticed is many organizations do not link the performance management results to any reward i.e. cash or non-cash. It’s like winning a game and not getting a trophy in the end. All performance management programs should end with a clear link to reward in the form of recognition or increments or bonuses etc. the more clear is the link, the higher is the employee motivation to perform well.<\/p>\n

Other than better pay or job roles, what are the main reasons why people change jobs?<\/h1>\n

The Manager \u2013 would be the number one reason for any employee to leave. The importance of the job for the employee would be the second reason for them to leave.<\/p>\n

What makes a really effective P.M. programme? Any best practices to share.<\/h1>\n

A good P.M programme should be strategically aligned with an organizations strategy. Goals should cascade down from organizational strategy to departmental and then individual goals. The process should be simple yet comprehensive and fair and consistent for all participants. It should encourage continuous coaching and feedback. Should have clearly defined processes to reward high-performers and develop under-performers. Should support learning and development across the organization. Should be supplemented with regular training for new joiners, employees, managers, and leaders.<\/p>\n
