- Event Speaker Bio: Performance management is widely misunderstood. It is often interpreted as the way to “fix” problem employees. In many organizations it is just a paper exercise. At worst, the old school report style of performance reviews can actually reduce motivation. A successful performance management program is a positive, ongoing approach that assists all employees in fulfilling their potential and growing their skills while contributing to business goals. This approach to performance management has been shown to increase employee engagement, resulting in greater motivation and retention – critical in today’s tight labour market.
