Dear Colleague,

Performance Management is a tool, process, or system that was invented in the last 20 years in the business world to provide a mechanism for fixing, measuring, and monitoring the performances of individual talents as well as teams. The typical sequence follows the order as below:

- Business Objectives/Vision of the company
- Department or Functional Objectives and Goals for each Financial Year
- KPIs for each talent in the Department and KRA for the Department as such
- Following the SMART principle in PMS, as we all know - Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timely.
- Engaging an effective online tool for uploading, monitoring, measuring, tracking, and comparing fixed KPIs versus Achieved KPIs for each quarter, half-year, and financial year.
- Rewarding good performance as per the Reward Policy
- Placing talents not up to par under PIP - Performance Improvement Plan
- Repeating the cycle for the next Financial Year

The Performance Management System has both merits and demerits, or advantages and disadvantages. There may be a lot of pitfalls in the system. In no company is PMS a foolproof system and will have gaps that HR and Business need to narrow down to leverage the overall advantage for the business. It is like a Rope-Walk and must be handled very carefully when administering the PMS and related REWARD SYSTEM.

There is a wealth of material available on websites about PMS that you may go through for a more detailed understanding of PMS.
