Lectures Performance ManagementHOORCOLLEGE 1
HRM and PM
What is the overlap and difference between PM and HRM. Different opinions.
- Performance management: that part of HRM that is directed at management of human
performance in an organization. PM is not only a tool/practice within HRM, but a
perspective/starting point/focus point of HRM. This is an important focus point in practice.
For example, well being is not a mean for performance, but it is a goal in itself.
In practice, HRM seems to be predominantly performance management. In big companies PM officer
or a whole section for PM.
(Within this course) focus on:
- PM systems & practices: how you organize within your organization.
- PM processes: PM only works if all people are involved and aiming at the same direction.
Compensation and benefit will not be included in this course, there is a special course for that.
What is performance management?
Performance is about doing meaningful work in effective and efficient ways.
PM assumes managerial responsibility to:
- Assure that where the organization is headed, what it does, and how it does it – are
appropriate considering the impact on society, the community, investors, customers,
employees and the market
- Provide people with the direction, information, tools, materials, equipment, and appropriate
rewards required for their efforts to produce the desired results
Gives a lot; provide direction, information tools, etc.
What is performance management about? (two questions!)
- Are we doing the things right? are we doing needed to get to our goals?
o Are we doing the best we can or can we improve what we do?
Within PM there is always a behaviour assessment or diagnose. The assessment, that
is whether performance is up to a given standard can be ascertained by monitoring
and reporting behaviour and processes.
- Are we doing the right things? when we know where we headed to, are we doing it the
right way?
o Are we doing what we intend to do and is it in alignment with the organizational
strategy. This can be stimulated by formulating clear targets and creating conditions
for learning.

, Performance management (PM)
Definition of Performance management: ‘’Performance management is a continuous process of
identifying, measuring, and developing the performance of individuals and teams and aligning
performance with the strategic goals of the organization’’ – Aguinis
Performance management is NOT performance appraisal (= measuring performance)
Three important messages from this definition:
1. It is a continuous process which means it is dynamic
2. Can be at different levels: individual and team and organizational
3. There must be an alignment between performance and the strategic goals of the
organization = key.
Difference between performance management and performance appraisal
Performance management
Performance management:
- Strategic business considerations: not only individual level
- Driven by managers
- Ongoing feedback (is the alignment between performance and the strategic goals still there?)
So employee can improve performance
Performance appraisal:
- Driven by HR
- Assesses employees: strengths/weaknesses
- Once a year
- Lacks ongoing feedback
Recent developments:
- From performance appraisal to performance management. Integration with other HR
practices, the continuous process, the alignment.
- From performance rating to performance improvement. Rating errors, rating accuracy, raters
motivation etc. how to improve performance of the employee and the organization.
- From individual performance to team-level and firm-level performance
- You need to have valid and reliable measures. Employees need to be motivated to perform.
Purpose for performance management
- Strategic: links individual goals with organizational and team goals and thereby give
opportunity to reinforce behaviour that is consistent with the attainment of organizational
goals. Alignment with organizational objectives.
- Administrative: valid and useful information about making decisions about employees. E.g.
salary adjustment, promotion, employee retention and termination, pool performance.
When you know how well your employees perform, you know what kind of administrative
decisions you have to make e.g. promote/extra training, etc. Get to know your employees.
- Communication: it allows employees to learn about the organizations and the supervisors
expectation and what aspect of the work the supervisor beliefs is most important. System to
communicate with your employees: what should you do and what not; expectations.
- Developmental: Way to give personal feedback, make sure that employees can develop and
improve themselves. It informs employees how well they are doing to receive information on
a specific area that needs improvement. It allows managers to coach employees and help
them improve performance on an ongoing basis.
- Data collection
Organizational maintenance: yields information about skills, ability emotional
potential, assignment history to be used in workforce planning, assessing future
training needs, evaluating performance achievement at the organizational level,
