How Performance Management is Killing Performance: The 8 Fatal Flaws of Performance Management

Tamra Chandler’s presentation at The HR Congress

Tamra Chandler is the author of “How Performance Management is Killing Performance And What To Do About It.”

Most people are familiar with old-school performance management in the form of their annual performance review and the process that surrounds it. The forms, the hounding emails, the bell curves, the negotiating… all part of an annual ritual that is almost universally dreaded by HR professionals and employees alike. A ritual that, frankly, simply doesn’t work to improve the performance or drive engagement. The fundamentals of standard performance management emerged in the post-war era of the 1950s and haven’t changed much to reflect today’s increasingly global, connected, and Millennial-driven business environment. Rather than continuing to apply a years-old system that shows little sign of improving business results, how do you instead open conversations, build excitement, and move your organization forward? Award-winning CEO and author M. Tamra Chandler will explain why our current process is failing us, and introduce the fundamental shifts of great performance management and a proven how-to framework to help every organization build a performance management system that addresses today’s world of work.
