Compensation and Performance Management

Module 8: Discussion Forum

In certain situations, however, an employee’s performance may still not meet expectations, and an employee improvement plan may need to be developed. Discuss the principle components of an employee improvement plan—along with the role of compensation and performance appraisals in that plan—and how this plan should be presented, and discussed, with an employee.
