Performance management and individual performance reviews may be the broccoli of organisational life. Since organisational life started (back in the day) every organisation has had some performance-based process for deciding on important decisions like individual development and compensation. Despite these enlightened times (it’s a long time since we used whips to motivate pyramid builders) a recent 15Five study shows that 62% of employees feel that the performance review process negatively impacts employee satisfaction. It just seems that we haven’t figured out how to make this an engaging process.
Several large organisations (Deloitte, Microsoft, Adobe, GE) were in the news between 2012 and 2022 as they abandoned their old performance management processes in favour of new experiments with digitally enabled “touchpoints” and “checkins”. How do you view the performance management process?
