The Point: Many performance appraisal and performance management systems fail outright because they emphasis appraisal and ignore performance planning. When you plan performance properly, the appraisal process occurs much more naturally and with less stress. Not only that but performance planning helps ensure employees are doing the right things so they can contribute to the workunit and the company most effectively.

Performance Planning For Managers Helpcard provides the information you need to carry out individual performance planning. If you plan properly you'll save time and hassle, and need to spend less time fighting performance fires throughout the year. The planning process helps staff self-monitor their own performance all year long.

What's special about this model is that it focuses on creating success for manager, employee and company by extending the process to identifying and removing barriers to performance.
