02 QUESTIONS

You can ask both yourself and each employee two questions:

• How does your position contribute to the overall goals of the business?

• How will you know when you are successful?

• These two questions are deceptively simple, but taking the time to really dig for the answers will start to create a stronger alignment between each person and the overall success of the business.

The basis of performance management

A systematic process for improving organizational performance by developing the performance of individuals and teams.

PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT

PURPOSE OF PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT

• Obtain better results from the organization, teams and individuals by understanding and managing performance within an agreed framework of planned goals, standards and competency requirements

• Establish shared understanding on what is to be achieved, and manage and develop people in a way which ensures that it will be achieved

• Align individual objectives to organizational objectives and ensure that individuals uphold corporate core values

• Act as a lever for change

PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT – SEVEN QUESTIONS

1. What do we mean by performance?

2. How can we identify good or poor performance?

3. How can we establish the cause of good or poor performance?

4. How can we motivate people to perform well?

5. How do we deal with under-performers?

6. How can we do all this fairly and consistently?

7. How do we achieve line manager buy-in?

THE BUSINESS CASE FOR PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT

• Provide framework for effective people management • Develop high-performance culture• Achieve human capital advantage• Develop required skills, abilities and attitudes• Promote job engagement• Uphold core values

The performance management system

Performance and development planning – performance agreement• role definition• objectives• competencies• performance improvement• personal development

Act

• carry out role• implement performance improvement plan• implement personal development plan

Manage performance throughout the year

• monitor performance• provide continuous feedback• provide coaching• deal with under-performers

Review performance• dialogue and feedback• agree strengths and any areas for improvement• build on strengths – ‘you are particularly strong in this area’ – how can you make even greater use of them?

CHARACTERISTICS OF PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT

Performance management processes

PERFORMANCE AGREEMENT

The purpose of the performance agreement is to:

• agree objectives and competency level requirements

• agree on methods of measuring performance

• agree on plans for performance improvement and personal development

TYPES OF OBJECTIVES

• Ongoing (role or work) objectives• Targets• Projects• Behaviour• Values• Improvement• Learning

CHARACTERISTICS OF GOOD OBJECTIVES

S = specific/testing – clear, unambiguous, understandable and challenging

M = measurable – in terms of quantity, quality, time or money

A = achievable – challenging but within the reach of a competent and committed person

R = relevant – to organizational objectives so that they and the individual’s goals are aligned

T = time-framed – to be completed within an agreed timescale

PERFORMANCE REVIEWS: KEY FEATURES

• Forward looking – not a post mortem• Exchange of views (dialogue) • Measurement• Feedback• Positive reinforcement• Constructive• Leads to an agreement• Assessment

WHAT TO FIND OUT AT A REVIEW MEETING

• What individuals have learned or need to learn• Where they have got to• Where they are going• How they are going to get there• What they believe they know and can do• What help or guidance they require

Assessing performance

ASSESSMENT METHODS

• Narrative: eg ‘This employee has worked effectively and delivered the expected results’

• Visual (Matrix)

• Rating

• 360-degree feedback

• Balanced scorecard

VISUAL (MATRIX) ASSESSMENTS

High level of achievement, approach

needs to improve

High performing

Not meeting requirements Positive approach,low level of achievement

Achievement measures

Behaviours, attitudes, overall approach to work

RATING – FIVE-POINT POSITIVE/NEGATIVE SCALE

A Outstanding performance in all respects.

B Superior performance, significantly above normal job requirements.

C Good all-round performance which meets the normal requirements of the job.

D Performance not fully up to requirements. Clear weaknesses

requiring improvement have been identified.

E Unacceptable. Constant guidance is required and performance

of many aspects of the job is well below a reasonable standard.

EXAMPLE OF POSITIVE FOUR-POINT RATING SCALE

• Very effective: Meets all the objectives of the job. Exceeds required standards and consistently performs in a thoroughly proficient manner beyond normal expectations.

• Effective: Achieves required objectives and standards of performance and meets the normal expectations of the role.

• Developing: A contribution which is stronger in some aspects of the job than others, where most objectives are met but where performance improvements should still take place.

• Basic: A contribution which indicates that there is considerable room for improvement in several definable areas.

• Useful to sum up judgements about people

• Recognizes that we all form overall views about people

• Tells people clearly how they are doing, and can be used as a basis for agreeing what needs to be done to improve the rating

• Can inform performance or contribute to pay decisions

• Largely subjective

• Difficult to get

consistency

• Over-simplifies complex

judgements

• Overshadows

performance reviews

CONDUCTING A REVIEW MEETING

• Encourage the individual to do most of the talking• Listen actively• Allow scope for reflection and analysis• Analyse performance not personality• Keep the whole period under review• No surprises• Recognize achievement and reinforce strengths• End meeting positively with agreed action plan

GIVING FEEDBACK

• Build feedback into the job• Provide feedback on actual events• Describe, do not judge• Refer to specific instances• Ask questions rather than making statements• Get people to work things out for themselves• Select key issues – focus on improvable areas• Show understanding

COACHING AS A PROCESS OF MANAGEMENT

• Making people aware of how well they are performing by, for example, asking them questions to establish the extent to which they have thought through what they are doing.

• Controlled delegation – ensuring that individuals not only know what is expected of them but also understand what they need to know and be able to do to complete the task satisfactorily. This gives managers an opportunity to provide guidance at the outset; guidance at a later stage may be seen as interference.

• Using whatever situations may arise as opportunities to promote learning.

• Encouraging people to look at higher-level problems and how they would tackle them.

Coaching as part of the normal process of management consists of:

THE ‘GROW’ MODEL OF COACHING

• ‘G’ is for the goal of coaching, which needs to be expressed in specific, measurable terms that represent a meaningful step towards future development.

• ‘R’ is for the reality check – the process of gaining as full a description of what the person being coached needs to learn as possible.

• ‘O’ is for option generation – the identification of as many solutions and actions as possible.

• ‘W’ is for wrapping up – when the coach ensures that the individual being coached is committed to action.

Managing performance

IMPROVING INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE: SEVEN STEPS

1. Select the goal – establish priority areas for action.

2. Define expectations – targets and standards.

3. Define performance measures – the basis upon which progress to achieving the goal can be monitored.

4. Plan – the improvement programme.

5. Act – implement the improvement programme.

6. Monitor – review progress and analyse feedback to ensure the target or standard is achieved.

7. Extend the process – continue the development programme as required.

DEALING WITH UNDER-PERFORMERS

1. Identify and agree the problem.2. Establish the reason(s) for the shortfall, eg where the

individual: – did not receive adequate support or guidance

from his/her manager; – did not fully understand what he/she was

expected to do; – could not do it – ability; – did not know how to do it – skill; – would not do it – attitude.3. Decide and agree on the action required.4. Resource the action. 5. Monitor and provide feedback.

THE FOUR MOST FREQUENTLY MENTIONED ISSUES

E-reward survey of performance management 2005

‘Shift in culture among long-term employees that performance management is just something they have to go through but they will be in the job anyway, to a more businesslike approach to performance management, with accountability and competency.’

‘Structured programme of training for managers plus ongoing coaching.’

‘Generating leadership from the top to support/encourage line managers to tackle poor performance head on in a fair and positive manner.’

‘Nagging, nagging, nagging, motivating, threatening, etc.’

‘Senior management insistence.’

‘Providing full line management briefing, training, guidelines and policies.’

ADDRESSING THE ISSUES

Developing performance management

BASIC DESIGN PRINCIPLES – CIVIL SERVICE PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT REPORT

• Stretching objectives agreed at the beginning of the year.• Individuals know the competencies and behaviours they are

expected to demonstrate.• Regular discussions during year between individuals and their

managers to discuss progress.• Formal meeting at the end of the year to record whether

objectives have been achieved and levels of competence demonstrated.

• Line managers make a narrative assessment but do not translate this into a box mark.

• Consult and involve • Provide training (formal and

coaching)• Communicate• Get support from senior

management• Get buy-in from line managers • Align to organizational and

stakeholder needs• Keep it simple• Ensure clear purpose and

processes• Monitor and evaluate

• Don’t make it too complicated• Don’t make it a form-filling

exercise• Don’t underestimate the time

it takes to introduce• Don’t keep changing the system• Don’t assume that managers have the skills required• Don’t link to pay• Don’t blindly follow others• Don’t neglect communication, consultation and training• Don’t assume everyone wants it

PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT AT RAYTHEON INC (2)

• Performance dialogue – frequent and open interaction between employees and their leaders that begins with mutual goal setting and continues with the recognition of accomplishment, the reinforcement of desired behaviours.

• Setting goals – corporate goals set for customer satisfaction, people growth and productivity. These are cascaded to individuals.

• Tracking performance – performance feedback provided throughout the year; individuals also track their own performance.

• Evaluating and rewarding performance – evaluation of performance takes place every day but individual performance is summarized at least annually in the performance review. The leader assesses strengths and areas for improvement and agrees training and development plans. Rewards are linked to performance at company, programme, team and individual levels.
