Bersin & Associates research clearly shows that there are two “schools of thought” in the world of employee performance management. One, which they call the “competitive assessment” model, assumes that organizations improve through a process of “rigid individualism” where employees are ranked and rated on against each other, driving performance on a comparative basis. The other model, referred to as the “coaching and development” model, assumes that people best perform through careful selection, then coaching, development, and continuous focus on job fit.
During this one-hour webcast sponsored by Cornerstone OnDemand, Josh Bersin, President & CEO of Bersin & Associates, will discuss the components of each, why organizations are trending toward the coaching and development model, and the keys to successfully transitioning to a more development-driven performance management process. The webcast will also feature detailed case study examples from Kelly Services, TravelEx, and Flextronics.
