INTRODUCTION TO THE TOPIC
Performance Management
The following definition is used for Performance Management:
This definition refers to a shift in scope from just registering the corporate results for accounting
purposes to effectively managing a rich and balanced set of organisational performance aspects,
ultimately helping to establish the enterprises strategic identity. Information technology does not
dominate this definition. Rather, IT is mentioned on par with, or better, as an enabler of adapted
management methodologies and models, the adoption of performance measurement techniques,
and integrated business process management.
Performance Management systems
Performance Management systems serve five different roles:
1. Measure performance
This category encompasses the role of monitor progress and measure performance/evaluates
performance.
2. Strategy management
This category comprises the roles of planning, strategy formulation, strategy
implementation/execution, and focus attention/provide alignment.
3. Communication
This category comprises the roles of internal and external communication, benchmarking and
compliance with regulations.
4. Influence behaviour
This category encompasses the roles of rewarding or compensating behaviour, managing
relationships and control.
5. Learning and improvement
This category comprises the roles of feedback, double-loop learning and performance
improvement.
OVERVIEW OF PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT
The role of HR in the present scenario has undergone a sea change and its focus is on evolving
such functional strategies which enable successful implementation of the major corporate
strategies. In a way, HR and corporate strategies function in alignment. Today, HR works
towards facilitating and improving the performance of the employees by building a conducive
work environment and providing maximum opportunities to the employees for participating in
organizational planning and decision making process. Today, all the major activities of HR are
driven towards development of high performance leaders and fostering employee motivation. So,
it can be interpreted that the role of HR has evolved from merely an appraiser to a facilitator and
an enabler.
Performance management is the current buzzword and is the need in the current times of cut
throat competition and the organizational battle for leadership. Performance management is a
much broader and a complicated function of HR, as it encompasses activities such as joint goal
setting, continuous progress review and frequent communication, feedback and coaching for
improved performance, implementation of employee development programmes and rewarding
achievements. The process of performance management starts with the joining of a new
incumbent in a system and ends when an employee quits the organization. Performance
management can be regarded as a systematic process by which the overall performance of an
organization can be improved by improving the performance of individuals within a team
framework. It is a means for promoting superior performance by communicating expectations,
defining roles within a required competence framework and establishing achievable benchmarks.
A performance management process sets the platform for rewarding excellence by aligning
individual employee accomplishments with the organizations mission and objectives and
making the employee and the organization understand the importance of a specific job in
realizing outcomes. By establishing clear performance expectations which includes results,
actions and behaviors, it helps the employees in understanding what exactly is expected out of
their jobs and setting of standards help in eliminating those jobs which are of no use any longer.
Through regular feedback and coaching, it provides an advantage of diagnosing the problems at
an early stage and taking corrective actions.
To conclude, performance management can be regarded as a proactive system of managing
employee performance for driving the individuals and the organizations towards desired
performance and results. Its about striking a harmonious alignment between individual and
organizational objectives for accomplishment of excellence in performance.
Objectives of Performance Management
According to Lockett (1992), performance management aims at developing individuals with the
required commitment and competencies for working towards the shared meaningful objectives
within an organizational framework. Performance management frameworks are designed with
the objective of improving both individual and organizational performance by identifying
performance requirements, providing regular feedback and assisting the employees in their
career development. The main goal of performance management is to ensure that the
organization as a system and its subsystems work together in an integrated fashion for
accomplishing optimum results or outcomes.
The major objectives of performance management are discussed below:
1. To enable the employees towards achievement of superior standards of work
performance.
2. To help the employees in identifying the knowledge and skills required for performing
the job efficiently as this would drive their focus towards performing the right task in the
right way.
3. Boosting the performance of the employees by encouraging employee empowerment,
motivation and implementation of an effective reward mechanism.
4. Promoting a two way system of communication between the supervisors and the
employees for clarifying expectations about the roles and accountabilities,
communicating the functional and organizational goals, providing a regular and a
transparent feedback for improving employee performance and continuous coaching.
5. Identifying the barriers to effective performance and resolving those barriers through
constant monitoring, coaching and development interventions.
Some of the key concerns of a performance management system in an organization are:
a) Concerned with the output (the results achieved), outcomes, processes required for
reaching the results and also the inputs (knowledge, skills and attitudes).
b) Concerned with measurement of results and review of progress in the achievement of set
targets.
c) Concerned with defining business plans in advance for shaping a successful future.
d) Striving for continuous improvement and continuous development by creating a learning
culture and an open system.
e) Concerned with the provision of procedural fairness and transparency in the process of
decision making.
The performance management approach has become an indispensable tool in the hands of the
corporates as it ensures that the people uphold the corporate values and tread in the path of
accomplishment of the ultimate corporate vision and mission. It is a forward looking process as it
involves both the supervisor and also the employee in a process of joint planning and goal setting
in the beginning of the year.
Components of Performance Management System
Any effective performance management system includes the following components:
1. Performance Planning: Performance planning is the first crucial component of any
performance management process which forms the basis of performance appraisals. Performance
planning is jointly done by the appraisee and also the reviewee in the beginning of a performance
session. During this period, the employees decide upon the targets and the key performance areas
which can be performed over a year within the performance budget., which is finalized after a
mutual agreement between the reporting officer and the employee.
2. Performance Appraisal and Reviewing: The appraisals are normally performed twice in a
year in an organization in the form of mid reviews and annual reviews which is held in the end of
the financial year. In this process, the appraisee first offers the self filled up ratings in the self
appraisal form and also describes his/her achievements over a period of time in quantifiable
terms. After the self appraisal, the final ratings are provided by the appraiser for the quantifiable
and measurable achievements of the employee being appraised.
3. Feedback on the Performance followed by personal counseling and performance
facilitation: Feedback and counseling is given a lot of importance in the performance
management process. This is the stage in which the employee acquires awareness from the
appraiser about the areas of improvements and also information on whether the employee is
contributing the expected levels of performance or not.
4. Rewarding good performance: This is a very vital component as it will determine the work
motivation of an employee. During this stage, an employee is publicly recognized for good
performance and is rewarded. This stage is very sensitive for an employee as this may have a
direct influence on the self esteem and achievement orientation. Any contributions duly
recognized by an organization helps an employee in coping up with the failures successfully and
satisfies the need for affection.
5. Performance Improvement Plans: In this stage, fresh set of goals are established for an
employee and new deadline is provided for accomplishing those objectives. The employee is
clearly communicated about the areas in which the employee is expected to improve and a
stipulated deadline is also assigned within which the employee must show this improvement.
This plan is jointly developed by the appraisee and the appraiser and is mutually approved.
6. Potential Appraisal: Potential appraisal forms a basis for both lateral and vertical movement
of employees. By implementing competency mapping and various assessment techniques,
potential appraisal is performed. Potential appraisal provides crucial inputs for succession
planning and job rotation.
Benefits of a Performance Management System
A good performance management system works towards the improvement of the overall
organizational performance by managing the performances of teams and individuals for ensuring
the achievement of the overall organizational ambitions and goals. An effective performance
management system can play a very crucial role in managing the performance in an organization
by:
Ensuring that the employees understand the importance of their contributions to the
organizational goals and objectives.
Ensuring each employee understands what is expected from them and equally
ascertaining whether the employees possess the required skills and support for fulfilling
such expectations.
Facilitating a cordial and a harmonious relationship between an individual employee and
the line manager based on trust and empowerment.
Role of HR in Performance Management
The HR department today is a strategic partner and plays a vital role in pursuing a particular
strategy. For facing the challenges of a globalized world, Indian organizations have reformed
their HRM strategies for managing the employee performance by considering part time work,
outsourcing and temporary workers. HR no longer today plays the role of a rubber stamp
department, rather is a performance enabler by closely working with the management and all the
major functional departments of an organization. Companies like Maruti Udyog Ltd. and
Mahindra and Mahindra, revamped their entire organizational set up and were able to create
performance efficiency due to the efforts of the HR department.
CHAPTER-3
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Tata Iron and Steel Company (TISCO), a flagship company of India involved in manufacturing
of cost effective steel can be appreciated for their initiatives in the implementation of an effective
performance management framework and innovative HR practices. TISCO initiated a
management restructuring programme for transforming into a high performing and a growing
organization. In the HR front, the management focused on providing exciting career
opportunities and building a team of high performing professionals for which they hired
Mckinsey and Co. The consultants firstly started with building a lean and a flat strategic business
unit with enriched jobs, increased accountabilities and autonomy. A Performance Ethic
Programme (PEP) was also introduced for promoting young and dynamic professionals and this
was a replacement of seniority based promotions. A new Performance Management System
(PMS) was introduced for aligning the KRAs with the business strategies and identifying
superior performers in the organization by defining clear career paths and accountabilities. The
rewards and recognitions were linked with the PMS. The new measures in the direction of
performance management boosted the employees motivation and performance. The job
satisfaction also improved due to the introduction of a fair and transparent reward system.
Arvind Mills of LalbhaiGroup, realized the importance of strategic HRM practices and the
implementation of a pro active performance management system in their organization after
facing serious threats from the business competitors. The company created a Manpower Planning
and Resource Group which took the charge of preparing job descriptions and structuring the jobs
for the employees and was responsible for implementing the recruitment and selection
procedures. An innovative online recruitment system was introduced which was known as
Selection Information System, for fixing interviews, generating call letters, etc. This system was
linked with the Compensation Information System and Training Information System. The
training requirements of the employees were taken care by the Management and Organizational
Development Group. The company also introduced MBO system, for setting smart goals for the
employees which may motivate them for a superior performance.
Organizations like Wipro and Infosys, the major IT giants of India give a lot of importance to
competency based performance management system. In Wipro, the performance management
process begins with the identification and assessment of critical competencies for top
management, senior management and middle management on the basis of critical incidents,
focus groups and rigorous interviews. 360 degree feedback is used for providing a feedback on
the existing competencies of the employees and based on the results of the feedback a training
programme is organized for improving the deficit areas of performance. Finally, personal
development plans are formulated for each employee for monitoring and tracking the
improvement in competencies or skill sets. For building competencies, Wipro focuses on
strategic thinking, vision, building star performers and global focus. Infosys equally gives a lot
of importance to 360 degree feedback for evaluating the critical leadership competencies of their
employees.

CHAPTER-7
RECOMMENDATIONS
RECOMMENDATIONS:
The following are the suggestions and conclusions derived from this particular
Research study
Objectivity
One manager's idea of "self-starting ability" can be quite different than another's idea. If greater
amount of objectivity can be infused into the system, it can help to bring more transparency.
.
Effective Communication
One function of performance appraisals is to help employees develop so they can contribute
more effectively. In order for the employees to develop and learn they need to know what they
need to change, where (specifically) they have fallen short, and what they need to do. If a
manager assigns a 1 (unsatisfactory) on a scale of 5, it does not convey much information to an
employee. It just says the manager is dissatisfied with something. In order to make it meaningful
and promote growth, far more information must be added to the appraisal process and the related
information should be transparently shared with the employee.
Fairness
Most employees resist being classified at the low end of the scale. Employees who are low rated
are more likely to resist the evaluation of the superior and argue, claiming that personal bias was
involved in the ratings.
Managerial Efficiency
The implementation of a Performance Management System rests on the shoulders of the
manager and he must ensure that it is done properly. A good manager can make an average
appraisal system work and vice-versa.
Training development / enhancement
Proper training program should be conducted about the E-Map system for the new trainees.
Some personality development trainings should also be provided apart from mere job oriented
training.
Increase transparency
Increase transparency in the organization by giving ample and adequate amount of information
of system. HR department should follow an open door policy which ensures that any queries
regarding the policy can be clarified to the employee s satisfaction.
Timely review
If PMS is conducted within 6 months then surely the results will be much better and would bring
more satisfaction in employees. It will also increase the dedication to work hard as they will be
assessed on their goals within a stipulated time.
CHAPTER-8
CONCLUSION
CONCLUSION
HR department is one of the major part of any organization its goal is to maximize the
productivity of an organization by optimizing the effectiveness of its employees while

resources. Human resource managers attempt to determine future HRM activities and plan
