Companies that want to increase employee performance and productivity need to connect their workforce to the strategy of the business. So says DDI’s Bob Rogers in Realizing the Promise of Performance Management.
He argues that companies will not see any significant progress without aligning their entire workforce with their growth goals, and that a solid performance management system will provide individuals with performance expectations that directly connect to the company’s bottom line.
Drawing on more than 30 years’ experience, Rogers looks at how companies such as Kellogg, Merck, BT and Lockheed Martin have leveraged their performance management systems to retain employees, engage their workforces, reduce turnover and grow their business.
Rogers also looks at the five traps of performance management, such as having people fill out forms instead of managing daily performance, and a lack of balance between what was achieved and how it was achieved.
Realizing the Promise of Performance Management is a concise and useful guide to performance management for any HR professional or manager.
