5% The Performance Management Dashboard - for Managers

Every user forming part of the performance management process, gets access to their own Performance Management Dashboard.  If a person manages other users, or employees, the person fulfills the role of performance manager and gets access to a Performance Management Dashboard for managers.

The activities described below is from the viewpoint of a performance manager, assisting his/her employees during the performance management process. Except for the submission of objectives (done by an employee themselves) and the submission of self-rated objectives (also done by an employee), a performance manager has control over all aspects of an employee's performance contract.  If you are a performance manager, we therefore recommend also doing the section The Performance Management Dashboard for Employees.  On this page we will focus on the additional functionalities only.

#1 Switch between groups of people

A performance manager has access to his/her own performance management dashboard, similar to those of other users, as seen below.  However, a manager can also switch to a separate view which allows for the management of the performance contracts of other users.

  • At the top of the dashboard page, select the applicable performance year, then click the toggle button to switch to the contracts of that team.

The view displays the regular performance cycle timeline, as well as a list of employees or users in the selected group.
Note that you could have access to 3 types of people or people groups via the toggle button.  Although the groups - and your responsibilities towards them - may differ, you have the same access (features and functionalities) to the individuals.

Your own performance contract

Employees reporting to you as their direct line or performance manager

Employees in other groups (e.g. Senior Management).  These do not necessarily report to you, but you might be responsible for their performance  management.


#2 Where should you focus?

 

Managing several employees, with contracts in various stages and phases of the performance management cycle, can be daunting.

We took the guessing out of the management by grouping the employees according to the following phases.  Just note the phases will repeat for each review period in the performance contract.

As manager, you can assist with every step, but, in the tabletables below we assume the employee will perform their tasks to the fullest.

 

These employees are in the Objective Setting phase:
