Performance goals, performance reviews, performance scores and skill training – all of this falls under the broad head of performance management. Strategies concerning performance management, how it’s done, and how it changes over time are referred to as “employee and performance development”. There’s a whole lot of HR work going on behind that phrase, including some unique challenges in how organizations manage their employees, and what employees want from their leaders over time. That can lead to tension: Gallup reports that employees’ top listed needs from their managers include job clarity and ongoing feedback.
However, their research also shows that only 27% strongly agree that the feedback they receive helps them, and only 19% report that they’ve talked to a manager about steps to reach their goals.
