100% The Performance Management Process
The Performance Management Process
This module does not only allow for small transactional operations, it supports a full performance management process, or life cycle. Three roles play an active part in the process namely:
- the employee,
- his/her performance manager,
- and the Performance Administrator.
Typical timelines for a 12-month performance process are shown on the diagram below.
Note in this example a performance year runs from July to June.
Going into a bit more detail, the review periods and their phases can be illustrated as follows, again for a typical 12-month performance cycle having 2 review periods.
Employees start setting their performance objectives (called contracting) in the beginning of the performance year.
When the objectives have been approved by a manager, the manager and employee can start to collaborate via the Check-ins functionality.
When the review / rating phase starts, the check-ins are locked - only allowing access for the reviews.
Going into the year's second review period, a brief re-contracting is done to confirm the existing objectives.
Again the process is supported by the check-in functionality.
Which is followed by the final, or second review phase.
Optionally a value survey could be run concurrently with the second review period.
