In your business or organisation, you undoubtedly have one or more goals. In short, you know where you want to go. You may be the sole manager or employ other senior personnel to help you manage the concern and its performance. This is where performance management comes in.
However, before your performance management process can be implemented to ensure effectiveness and efficiency, you need to evaluate, recognise and fully understand where the concern is right now, as well as which factors, both positive and negative, have brought your organisation to this place.
You need to have a realistic starting point from which to manage the concern’s future performance and progress. Managing performance by the seat of your pants is a risky business. It’s helpful to have a strategic plan which includes interim performance goals that may be continuously managed and directed to ensure that workflow has a positive impact on the organisation.
It’s important to be completely honest and objective when conducting assessments. Without this type of mindset, attitude and intention, your assessments would be futile. Also, keep in mind that you may uncover errors and less pleasing aspects of your operation that have led to your current status quo.
Time is money, as you well know. Rather avoid wasting either by ensuring that your assessment is thorough and includes your positive actions and accomplishments to date. A transparent, well-considered performance management plan is designed to take you, your organisation and your people forward from here.
Goal-directed performance management and a successful outcome don’t happen overnight. The execution of a strategic plan is a process that leads to a successful outcome and workplace performance doesn’t happen in isolation. It takes people to make it happen.
Phases of corporate performance progress are controlled and monitored by one or several managers, who have the wherewithal to guide, mentor and coach employees every step of the way in a manner that is in keeping with the company’s management policies.
Our company, Orgro, the abbreviated form of Organisational Growth, was previously branded as FWA Organisational Development; that was Orgro’s starting point when we applied the assessment of our then-status quo. Nonetheless, our core commitment to and passion for the development of people remains as unshakeable as ever. We are people’s people, specialising in “getting people working better, together”.
With our company’s 38 years’ experience and dedication backing us since our establishment in 1982, we’re ideally placed to provide the latest qualified assistance in:
Our Orgro approach to people and performance planning is holistic since people are not one-dimensional beings, a characteristic of diverse people that will and should never change. Diversity adds dimension and interest to and within the workplace, which might otherwise become insignificant, insipid and, frankly, dull.
Holistic performance planning addresses various elements:
In customising, setting up and implementing a performance management plan, we take into account relevant:
It’s also necessary for your personnel to engage and commit to their jobs so that they acquire a satisfying sense of purpose. In turn, supervisors and managers should be trained and equipped to guide, monitor, mentor and hold interactive, goal-directed discussions with staff members, who are often great, creative thinkers and innovators – sources of novel and workable new ideas and suggestions.
With Orgro’s qualified assistance, those in senior capacities should recognise the needs for and be instrumental in creating personal development plans for their teams and individual people and their concentrated efforts to produce better workplace results.
When a corporate organisation or senior member of staff recognises the contribution of its people, this action boosts self-confidence, trust and loyalty levels. A deserved figurative or literal pat on the back works wonders to enhance and encourage productivity and performance.
