Performance management is a critical part of HR's responsibility. As organisations compete for survival on reduced budgets, they are increasingly relying on HR to help drive high performance, increase efficiency and develop new ways of motivating their workforce to continuously improve.

But performance management is a complex system which requires a well structured, co-ordinated and consistent approach where:

• the process is aligned to the strategic organisational objectives.
• managers are fully supported to carry out the performance appraisal process consistently and fairly.
• performance metrics are communicated clearly and meaningfully to all team members, encouraging their buy-in.
