Assignment Details

Performance management is an essential function of human resource management and is a critical tool in managing talent. It can be accomplished implicitly (e.g., planning to meet with Tom because he is failing to tackle high-priority tasks and leaving priority tasks incomplete) or explicitly (e.g., asking Jane to complete the upcoming prospectus by the end of the month). When carried out properly, performance management is a crucial tool to help employees maximize their potential. It also ensures that that management can get the most out of the workforce.

Identify how performance management measures and encourages the workforce’s contribution to the organization. Provide an example that highlights your choice.

In your replies to others, discuss the ways your choice compares to the choices made by your peers.
