Ian Lee-Emery, Founder and CEO of Head Light, says, “The workplace has been disrupted and new business strategies and plans may be now in place: plans that need to be translated into individual actions across the organisation. More than ever, managers and team members need to be checking in on goals, objectives and progress regularly. Individuals need to not just understand their role, but also their contribution to the achievement of the company’s plan. Continuous Performance Management is the vehicle to support this”. Ian continues, “The challenge for most organisations implementing Continuous Performance Management is not in its initial design, but in getting buy-in and engagement across every level of the organisation to get it used in working practice”. In conjunction with the Talent® User Group, Head Light has brought together the experiences, tips and learning of what works and what doesn’t, into a good practice guide. The Guide details not just the design and development of firm-wide continuous performance management, but also the fundamental aspects of how to achieve on-going engagement and gain real value from the investment in such activity. Ian continues, “This Good Practice Guide importantly draws together in one place what it takes to design and develop a new review process, launch it and build the engagement with it”. Structured around Head Light’s model of performance management, the Guide includes suggested actions to take and signposts resources that will be useful.
