the new HR manager
As the new HR manager, you have conducted an analysis of
your organization and found that performance management processes are highly
inconsistent among departments. Some departments have a process of a formal
annual appraisal while other departments do not provide employees with any
documented feedback on their performance. Also, some departments have a process
of documenting employee performance issues; others seem to follow a process of
no documented warnings before recommending termination. With your experience,
you recognize the benefits of establishing a developed performance management
program.
Using the Internet, locate information on performance
management and then develop a detailed plan to present to your CEO. In this
process, you will focus on two key areas of performance management: performance
appraisals and the disciplinary action/performance coaching process. This plan
should address the following:
1. What value does a performance management program bring to
the organization?
2. Which performance management programs did you consider?
3. Which programs did you select and why?
4. How will the new programs be communicated to employees?
5. What type of training will be provided for managers?
6. What additional issues/challenges need to be considered
with the implementation of these programs?
