Performance Management: The Generic Model


Generic Performance Management Model

For achieving a complete integration, a generic performance management model is given below. However, every organization can customize it to its specific objectives and requirements.

The process steps are given in a logical sequence:

Step 1. Planning: Planning includes planning and deciding about:

1.     Vision and mission
2.     Objectives
3.     Core competencies (of the organization)
4.     Critical success factors
5.     Key performance indicators
6.     Strategies
7.     Organizational structure
8.     Skills and competencies (required of individuals working for the organization)
9.     Position and job descriptions
10.  Objectives/goals of each individual working for the organization
11.  Plans of action
12.  Induction, mentoring, training and developing the employees

Step 2.  Measuring and Rating: This step relates to measuring actual performance of an organization, it’s departments and people against the planned performance. Evaluating and rating of the employees are important aspects. So it involves:

13.  Achievement measurement as against planned
14.  Performance review or performance appraisal of employees and rating them
15.  Assessments of skill and competency gaps and gap analysis

Step 3. Developing: It emphasizes training and development of people based on the outcomes of earlier step of measuring and rating. It includes:

16.  Individual development plans based on the organizational gaps in critical success factors of the organization (e.g. the gaps could be in quality or cost competitiveness or customer relations or enhancing team effort/communication etc)
17.  Training and other developmental initiatives like job rotation, job enrichment, transfers, task force assignments, foreign assignments etc based on competency evaluation of the employees and organizational requirements
18.  Individual counseling, coaching and mentoring

Step 4: Awards and Rewards: It is necessary to keep up the motivation and morale levels of the people at the highest levels. Therefore the performance management must include wholesome schemes of:

19.  Recognition and rewards
20.  Career plans and succession plans
