4. Performance Management ?
“Performance management (PM) is the
combination of formal and informal
processes and practices that help drive and
focus employees on outcomes, goals,
activities, decisions and behaviors that will
produce positive short, medium and long-
term results for the organization”
Source: HAY Group
5. Performance Management Philosophy
What PM is What PM is Not
A focus on both results and means and business
performance.
A focus only on results.
Two-way communication and Participation.
One-way communication.
Focus both on "how" and “what.” Focus on "who.”
Individual goals and behavior focused on organizational
objectives.
Performance not clearly directed and not
focused on organizational goals.
Working "smarter" (knowledge-based).
Working "harder (reward and punishment
structure).”
How can we overcome barriers to success? Who failed?
Motivating. De-motivating.
A Line management accountability. An HR management accountability.
A continuous process. A once-a-year review.
Emphasis on planning and achieving. Emphasis on appraisal/review.

6. What are KRAs (Objectives)
Typically important tasks
Key activities or projects the function needs to achieve
over the performance period
They focus on doing something better, making
improvements, doing something new
Examples:
◦ Increase customer satisfaction ratings by 10% by the
end of 3rd quarter”
◦ Ensure number of complaints are reduced by 15% by
the end of 4th quarter

7. What are KPIs?
KPIs are key parts of a measurable objective, which is
made up of a direction, benchmark, Target and
timeframe.
For example: "Increase Average Profitability per Project
from 20% to 30% by 2016".

8. Key Performance Indicators, KPIs
KPIs are written, expected Performance Outcomes
KPIs need to be S.M.A.R.T.
S.M.A.R.T
S-Specific State Exactly What Will Be Accomplished
M-Measurable Milestones Events and Dates
A-Achievable Goal Can Be Achieved Within Constraints
R- Result Goal Should Always Focus on Actions
T-Time-Bound Time Allowed Is Fair & Reasonable

21. Setting Individual Objectives
1
• Cascade Departmental KPIs to
Individuals
2
• Identify KRAs* from Job Descriptions
Following are Two important points to keep in mind when setting
Individual Objectives:
*Key Result areas represents 20/80 rule. This is because 80% of the value of
what we do is determined by 20% of our activities. So Supervisors should
identify that which job activities are critical for the departmental success.
A key result area must be clear, specific and measurable, it must be an
essential business activity, and it must be within employee’s control.
