Overview:
All business leaders are interested in building the performance of their workforce, but few organizations are successfully implementing initiatives today. Performance management solutions can help by going beyond automation of manual processes to ultimately transform the way you manage people. To ensure a successful performance management implementation across the enterprise, organizations should:

▪ Build and communicate a roadmap
▪ Keep it simple
▪ Isolate and pilot new practices where possible
▪ Plan for end-user involvement
▪ Get training and communication teams involved early
▪ Understand the alignment model
▪ Target integrated processes (e.g., Performance to Learning)

In addition, organizations should follow the 40:20:40 principle, focusing 40 percent on business process and content design, 20 percent on technology implementation, and 40 percent on change management, including training and communication.

Those that do will be well on their way to effective performance management that drives significant value for the business.
