Description

A good performance management process enables leaders, teams and employees to carry out their work more effectively, thereby enhancing the performance and business results. It is also a vital process in helping employees to feel valued and motivated. It is increasingly accepted that effective performance management is not just about an annual review – it is a continuous process. Neither is it ‘a one size fits all’ process – every performance management system needs to be aligned with organisational objectives and be adapted to meet the needs of your people.
