L’Évaluation de la Performance (Reviewing Performance)
Reviewing Performance
Performance reviews are critical to an organisation’s overall development planning process, but many managers are unprepared to conduct any performance review, let alone a fair and constructive one. Frequently, both managers and employees come to dread performance reviews and "go through the motions" rather than engage in a meaningful development dialogue. As a result, a potentially positive morale factor turns neutral or negative, and the organisational data for development planning is useless.
In Leading for Performance: Reviewing Performance (LFP-RP), participants examine performance review processes, learn best practises for conducting reviews, discuss guidelines for rating performance and common rating errors and practice proven techniques to prepare, write and conduct effective performance reviews.
Programme Outcomes
Leading for Performance: Reviewing Performance enables organisations to use effective performance reviews to link professional development with organisational strategy to improve organisational performance. A solid performance review process, with shared responsibility for feedback and development, also increases employee commitment and capability.
Approach
Reviewing Performance (LFP-RP) is a half-day module that can be facilitated by Wilson Learning or by a leader-trained in-house professional. This enables:
- Face-to-face interaction among the participants and the facilitator
- True-to-life skills practice with immediate in-person feedback
- The opportunity for real-time commitment to action
An important element of LFP-RP is pre-session preparation and classroom practice based on preparation for actual performance reviews.
Enabling Improved Performance
Reviewing Performance features the Reviewing Planner and Job Aid Card so participants can fine-tune and apply their newly acquired skills and behaviours on the job. Involving management to gain alignment and coaching support for the improved performance review process is important for successful implementation.
Participants who also complete Setting Goals for Success and Reviewing Performance will have the skills and knowledge to implement a more complete performance management process.
Measurement and Evaluation
Organisations that implement Leading for Performance: Reviewing Performance have access to a broad range of tools to measure initial behavioural changes and business results. A case study approach may be appropriate or a sampling of a review document before and after.
