This quick quiz will check your understanding of performance management and to what extent you demonstrate the managerial behaviours necessary to engage and get the best from your people.
Managing performance is consistently reported by managers as the single most difficult managerial responsibility. Our failure to take the correct and reasonable action in this area results amongst many things, in the acceptance of under performance, accusations of harassment and bullying, the loss of good people through lack of recognition, development and opportunity and can result in slow company growth, poor quality, lack of competitiveness and missed opportunities.
Personal development starts with awareness of where we are in the present, it offers us the opportunity to decide what action we wish to then take.
Some questions may have more than one answer, you will recognise these questions when the answer you select puts a tick in a box

The choices that you selected indicate that you are likely to have a considerable opportunity for personal development in both areas. It may be that you don’t particularly like dealing with conflict and find it difficult to have challenging conversations, you may have a tenancy to want to use a disciplinary procedure as a way of dealing with under performing employees or the organisation that your are in rely’s heavily on job descriptions as a way of measuring successful or lack of work performance.
You a likely to be a highly directive manager, who achieves results through a fairly strict regime, rewarding those that understand you and perform well as a means to encourage others. You may well have a low awareness of the impact your behaviours have on others or that when people leave the organisation it may well be because they feel there they have little prospects with you as there manager. These points are not insurmountable, personal development starts with an increase in awareness.

The choices that you selected indicate that you may have a belief that performance management is quite black and white process, sort out those who under perform and reward those that are doing well. It is possible that you do not fully understand yet what constitutes a well implemented performance management system and the benefits both managers and organisations receive from it.
You may be quite a task focused manager or employee who is potentially driven more by getting results than by how you achieve them, especially when under pressure. Your current approach is likely to be delivering reasonable results in some areas of your work but you are likely to be struggling to get some people engaged, maybe you experience some waiting for you to tell them what they need to do.
It is likely that you are are of some of the skills required to deliver an effective performance management process however you are likely still to be developing those skills. It may be beneficial for you to consider purchasing our Successful Appraisal Coaching cards and developing your coaching skills further through use of our GROW model coaching cards.
Your organisation may be interested in providing more training in the area of appraising staff, we have a generic training course with power point slides, a trainer guide and delegate workbook that is supported by the cards and can be tailored to look like an internally developed course. -
