Performance Management story …
Once upon a time… • Discussions not happening: Less than 20% of the
organisation completing appraisals. Seen as a top down tool “Big Brother.”
• Poor Discussions: The discussions that were happening
weren’t meeting the individual needs and managers had lost or were not skilled to have the discussion.
• Cascading: Conversations that were happening were
clinically focussed and didn’t consider organisational goals.
