Performance Management is a very broad term and as a result, different groups understand the concept in different ways. Anecdotal evidence reveals that most people perceive Performance Management as referring to individual Performance Management.

 

Performance Management is considered to be a series of management tools and processes used for connecting the individual, group and organizational levels of an organization. These processes monitor, control and manage the strategic and operational direction of an organization. Specifically, key practices may include setting priorities and operational plans, establishing targets and relevant KPIs. The goal of Performance Management processes is to help organizations achieve their desired results, oftentimes expressed through strategic objectives.

 

However, Performance Management is more than just about achieving strategic objectives. It also aims to drive continuous organizational improvement through constant reviewing and taking corrective actions, whilst continuing to make necessary adjustments to the Performance Management system.

Performance management is the systematic process that a manager applies to involve employees in accomplishing a unit’s mission and goals, improving overall unit effectiveness, and helping employees understand the importance of their contributions.In the event that performance does not meet established requirements, the manager must understand the corrective processes and methods that can help improve employee performance.
