”Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment and to either of these ends there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing.” – Thomas A. Edison
Performance management is a process of setting clear and specific goals and expectations and providing meaningful and ongoing feedback in both formal and informal settings. It relies on an open and trusting communication between the employee and management and the active engagement of both.
Involving staff members in each element of reviewing performance will allow greater engagement and acceptance of the final performance review, and reviewing results at the end of the performance cycle should be focused on facts. Managers should be able to explain results as well as what actions or initiatives would have made the performance scores higher or lower.
An employee assessment is an opportunity for laying out plans for future development that may include addressing specific requirements for current job performance or longer-term development for future roles.
