I often hear the quote “What gets measured gets done” often attributed to Peter Drucker, a recognised leadership guru. I believe that this is a fundamental element of what is commonly known as Performance Management. However Performance Management encompasses so much more…

  1. Performance Management is all about getting the best out of employees to achieve organisational or business goals.
  2. Performance Management is a cycle of planning what the organisation wants to achieve, doing tasks and reviewing to see what has been achieved.
  3. Performance Management is about linking strategy / business plans with employees work.
  4. Performance Management is about making sure that resources are prioritised to achieve organisational goals.
  5. Performance Management is about clarifying targets and goals for individuals.
  6. Performance Management is about making sure that employees understand their role in the organisation or business.
  7. Performance Management is about making sure that employees know what is expected of them in their jobs.
  8. Performance Management is not just about what employees need to achieve but also “how” they behave at work.
  9. Performance Management is a process to manage employees professionally.
  10. Performance Management is not just the annual performance review; it is more about managing employees day to day on the job.
