Discussion: Performance Management System - Evaluations 

This week we will briefly review various aspects of performance management and feedback.  A model is provided that is useful in linking performance management systems with organizational strategic objectives and goals.  It is important to consider carefully who will do evaluations; specifically, what they will evaluate; how the evaluation will be administered; and appropriate measures of evaluation.  Critical guidelines to effective performance systems suggest specific, immediate feedback based on clear, measurable goals delivered by a credible, trustworthy person are desirable.

Effective performance management systems require cooperation between employees and supervisors to set performance expectations; review results; assess organizational and individual needs, and plan.  Today’s streamlined organizations have fewer employees with broader job assignments and increased responsibility and accountability.  More than ever, organizations need broader measures of employee performance to ensure that performance deficiencies are quickly addressed with employee development programs; behaviors are being channeled toward specific objectives; and appropriate and specific feedback is provided to the employee to assist in career development.
