Capella University Evolution of Performance Management Discussion
Discussion: Evolution of Performance Management
The idea of performance management within organizations started back in the 1960s and began with the idea of appraising the performance of employees within an organization. Since then, performance management has continued to evolve into an overall process that gives attention to the entire range of performance and improvement strategies within an organization. It also includes managing behaviors and targeted activities, and then works to align organizational processes and activities to the goals of the organization.
Reflect on your previous work experience where you have seen a performance management program employed. How were performance appraisals used within the organization? Where else could you see elements of the performance management program being employed?
