Managing employee performance is a critical role for all leaders, of any group, even volunteers and family members. Expected outcomes depend on the ability to set clear performance expectations (outcomes) and in some situations help by defining methods or processes that are to be used.
Leaders are not immune from having performance issues and may become disconnected from the outcome (goals), or processes and this situation must be quickly assessed, and action taken. To wait, defer or “hope” it will get better is not an option as both the organization performance and impact on co-workers starts to take hold and can have compounding negative impact. Addressing both technical ability and behavioral issues must be done expediently and with proper alignment to policy along with regulatory boundaries for such action. The risk is real for doing it wrong, lawsuits and negative public relations, are two of the areas of concern. Having a leadership team that is well advised and consistently applying best practices and approaches to performance management is critical to long term success.
