Reference no: EM132114497 , Length: word count:500

Discussion Assignment -

This Discussion deals with the very important topic of performance management, or more specifically performance assessments. In the Supplemental Learning section of Week 4, you read an article and viewed a video that supported the idea of significantly changing the more traditional way of conducting performance reviews of employee's performance. Your text (Ch 10) describes all the major components and options of a successful performance program.

For this week's discussion, investigate what your current performance review process is at your current company, or in a former organization if that is more relevant. For those that may not have worked before or have access to a performance management system, interview a friend or an associate to investigate their internal procedures in this area.

Review any written material that exists inside the company that explains their performance management system: policy guidelines, employee/manager instructions, forms, performance appraisal interview guidelines and the like.

Once completed, evaluate what you like or dislike about the process or what you have personally experienced. In making this assessment, review the textbook, Chapter 10, for best practices and see how your target company measures up, or not.

Some questions to consider for your commentary:

Explain if you believed your review was fair and equitable?
Did you believe your manager was well prepared, handled your questions well and was a positive experience overall?
Is the overall performance management process, in your view, user friendly and one that fosters a dialogue with your manager?
Is the rating scale used easily understood, and applied accurately to your overall performance?
Was there any discussion around career goals and upward progression to learn new subject content for your future growth?
Include any recommendations for improving the performance management system you identified.
Add any other comments/research you believe relevant.

Read and Review these supplemental learning items related to Performance Management. While performance reviews are almost universally done by most organizations, they constantly miss the mark as to their effectiveness in improving productivity, and just as importantly, managers and employees have a negative view of them (to put it mildly). These two items give another point of view on how to correct the problem.
