Value of Performance Management

Guiding Principles of Performance Management

• People drive improved performance, not forms. Focus is relationships and feedback
• Performance management is a partnership between the manager and the employee
• There should be no surprises at review time
• Specific and objective feedback is key
  
• All individual performance goals should be linked to those of the department or agency
• Performance should be evaluated on what is to be accomplished as well as how it is to be accomplished
• Performance should be carefully measured and documented to ensure fairness and objectivity
