Traditional approaches to performance management tend to be rigid processes which are subjective in nature and most often revolve around annual assessments with a lack of focus or development tracking or activities in between events. Processes are often time consuming, manual, based around enumeration and thus lack staff buy-in.
A Totara Perform based approach frees you from rigid processes and empowers your organisation to encompass the full spectrum of performance management practices – from the single annual appraisal to regular performance check-ins and reviews – to meet your specific needs.
Competencies
Competencies allow you to map skills to people, and then map them to various forms of achievement, including courses, other competencies and manual ratings.
Building new competencies involves creating or editing a framework for your competency to sit in, then creating rating scales and competency types to use with your competency item.
Performance activities
Performance activities are very flexible to suit your needs. These activities are how you carry out various performance tasks including appraisals, check-ins and other feedback.
You can pull in content from other parts of the site, such as goals, competencies, evidence and learning – to get a thorough review of your people and what support they might need to achieve their full potential.
