Performance Management & Continuous Improvement

What Is Performance Management?

Performance Management is the proactive process which enables an organisation to effectively manage and measure staff performance against organisational objectives, leading to increased productivity and profitability.

It drives continuous improvement and promotes the development of a culture of interrelationship resulting in strong links between every department of your organisation.

Employees are an organisations' most expensive and valuable resource - it is vital that they are managed as effectively as possible.

To assist in achieving this goal, a Performance Management System allows your organisation to:-

  • Work out your employee's values to the organisation (both as individuals and teams);

  • Accurately measure & manage the performance of both your staff and your organisation;

  • Identify training gaps; and

  • Develop key competencies for job roles rather than individuals.

The success of performance management systems has been proven by surveys conducted by the CIPD (Chartered Institute of Personal Development) assessing organisations of all sizes.

Crownford's Approach To Performance Management

Crownford's Performance Management System will ensure that your employees:-

  • know and understand what is expected of them;

  • have the skills and ability to deliver on these expectations;

  • are supported by the organisation to develop the capacity to meet these expectations;

  • are given feedback on their performance; and

  • have the opportunity to discuss and contribute to individual and team aims and objectives.

Our approach is to structure the system around a framework - this is flexible, allowing monitoring and feedback and therefore a continuous cycle.

The Performance Management Cycle

Why Does Your Organisation Need A Performance Management System?

Crownford's Performance Management Systems enhance your existing systems to encourage 360 Degree feedback, with information and ideas travelling in multiple directions between all stakeholders of your organisation.

This has several benefits including:-

  • Improved customer service;

  • Improved work systems and staff morale;

  • Accurate job descriptions & job clarifications - ensuring that you have the correct person within each job role and that your staff are continually performing tasks relevant to meeting your business objectives;

  • Accurate and achievable organisational objectives.

All of this ensures that maximum productivity and profitability are achieved.
