Introduction and Background• After being rolled out gradually, the SCG Performance

Management system was fully implemented October 1, 2003. The following slides provide key background information about this system, including: – What is Performance Management? – What is the connection between the SCG Vision, Core

Competencies, and Business Plans? – What is a Business Plan? – What are the 4 phases of performance management (for

leaders)?– What is included in the new performance appraisal form?

What is Performance Management?

“ A process for establishing a shared understanding about:

what is to be achieved, and how it is to be achieved.

It is an approach of managing people that increases the probability of achieving success.”

It starts with theSCG Vision Statement

• Customer focused, continuously improving, accountable team.

The Vision describes what we want to be, what we are working toward as an organization.

What Is A Business Plan?• An annual plan that outlines

resource allocation, tactics, programs, process improvements and projects required to achieve outcomes and goals in support of the strategic plan. Includes contingency planning for potential scenarios.

• It addresses each of the four perspectives, or areas of focus: Customer, Process, Financial, Learning and Growth.

• Business plans include:– Core Services– Outcomes (aligned with

strategic initiatives and business center outcomes)

– Objectives– Key Activities– Measures– Targets (for the

measures)

The Evaluation Form Part A: Key Activities and Results

Focus on ACTION

Page 23: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

Part A is your “Action Plan” for the year. It includes the

following columns:• Objectives• Key Activities/Due Dates• Performance Measures/Targets• Results and Accomplishments• RatingThe next slides will explain each of these columns, and how to use them effectively.

Page 24: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

Objectives• Review your Business Plan with your supervisor.

Which of the Outcomes and Objectives do you contribute to in your work? Are there other objectives unique to you or your work team that should be included in your performance appraisal?

• Place those objectives on your Part A form at the start of your performance appraisal year.

• Number of Objectives Many employees will have 3-5; some may have a few more. (It is far more important to have meaningful objectives than to have a specific number of them.)

Page 25: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

Key Activities/Due Dates• For each objective, what are the specific activities

you need to accomplish? How will you contribute to the objectives?

• This is like a mini “action plan” for each objective. It will probably be just a few bulleted items. (If you’d like to add more detail, consider using an additional page.)

• Include a due date or time frame for each key activity to help you with planning as you begin your performance appraisal year.

Page 26: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

Performance Measures/Targets• How will you know whether or not you’re meeting

expectations? What are the criteria for success? Clarify this in your planning process at the start of your performance appraisal year!

• Performance measures = What needs to be measured and how you will do it. (For example: number of errors, percent of completion, dollars saved, etc.)

• Targets = What level is expected by your supervisor (based on the performance measures).

Page 27: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

What if Something Changes?!• If major changes occur

which affect the objectives you are asked to focus on during the year, you and your supervisor may need to review your performance management plan (Part A) and make appropriate updates. That’s OK!

Page 28: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

Results and Accomplishments• Based on the performance measures and targets

you previously identified, were you successful in meeting your expectations?

• This column can only be completed at the end of your performance appraisal year. HOWEVER, you will definitely want to discuss your progress and receive feedback from your supervisor throughout the year!

• Complete Part A as a self-evaluation when you prepare for your annual performance appraisal.

Page 29: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

Rating• This is where the supervisor indicates your overall

level of accomplishment for each objective during the past year. The rating options are:– Exceeds Expectations– Achieves Expectations– Below Expectations

• The rating is only completed at the end of your performance appraisal year. However, you should request and receive feedback throughout the year from your supervisor.

The Core Competency Wheels• In order to use Part B, you need a copy of the

Core Competency Wheel that best matches your role: Employee; Supervisor; General Manager/ Manager; Executive. You can find this in several places:– In the Roadmaps to Learning course catalog– On the Intranet in the OED (Organizational &

Employee Development) site– On the Intranet in the HR (Human Resources) site– In the Employee (or Leader) Resource Kit provided in

Performance Management classes.

Understanding the Core Competencies

• Review the 3 parts of the Core Competency Wheel (click to view ):– At the center are the organization’s values.– We all have the same 4 core competencies:

Customer/Community Champion; Financial Manager; Process Improver/Capacity Builder; Continuous Innovative Learner.

– Each competency has 4 “Performance Expectations” that help to define it. (The second page further explains these 16 Performance Expectations.)

Page 40: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

Using the Core Competencies• Review the Core Competency Wheel yourself,

making notes about how you demonstrate each of the 16 performance expectations in your work.Make your own self-assessment notes on Part B.

• Discuss these demonstrated behaviors with your supervisor. Be open to feedback. What are you doing especially well? What could you do more of? less of? differently?

Page 41: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

A Suggestion…• You may find it helpful to discuss the Core

Competencies and performance expectations using the following terms:– Novice/Beginner– Advanced Beginner– Competent– Proficient– Expert/Teacher/Mentor

• At what level do you (and your supervisor) see yourself now? What level could/should you achieve in the future?

Page 42: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

Planning…• As you discuss the Core Competencies with your

supervisor, identify specific things you will do in the coming year to improve your overall performance. In this way, Part B can serve as a planning tool.

If there is something you’d like to learn more about to help you with this (process improvement skills, for example) use Part C to plan your learning.

Page 43: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

… and Evaluating• Complete Part B as a self-evaluation when you

prepare for your annual performance appraisal.• During your evaluation, you and your supervisor

will use Part B to list specific examples of how you have demonstrated each core competency. Your supervisor will also provide an overall rating for each competency.

• You may also use Part B as a multi-rater tool, to gather insightful feedback from coworkers, customers, etc., as agreed upon between you and your supervisor.

The Evaluation Form Part C: Individual Development Plan

(IDP)

Focus on CONTINUAL LEARNING

Page 47: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

Purpose of an IDP• An Individual Development Plan (IDP) helps you to

plan work-related learning during the year. It also helps leaders manage related issues (like budget, work schedules, etc.). Part C is your IDP.

• The IDP is included with the performance appraisal since you are likely to identify learning needs during appraisal discussions with your supervisor. As with Parts A and B, Part C may be revised during the year if your learning needs/priorities change, or if you select a different learning method.

Page 48: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

Completing Part C (the IDP)• The employee should start the process of updating the

IDP each year. Bring a “first draft” to your performance management discussion.

• The supervisor should offer feedback, support, resources, and suggestions. S/he may not be able to approve every request (for instance, when a proposed learning method’s cost exceeds the available budget or when it will require too much time away from work), but will help the employee seek other alternatives.

Page 49: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

How to Complete an IDP• First, identify your learning needs. What do you

need to learn? (Don’t force yourself to make up a learning need for each core competency or each objective. You may only have one or two identified needs at this time – that’s OK!)

• Set goals (including time frames) for learning what you need to learn, and place those in the first column of the IDP. (For example, “By April, learn how to create and use spreadsheets on the computer.”)

Page 50: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

How to Complete an IDP• Second, link each learning goal to a core

competency. Will achieving this goal help you provide better customer service? Be a better financial manager? Improve quality or processes, or manage change? Help you develop into an expert in a particular area?

• In the second column of the IDP, identify the core competency to which each goal is aligned. (For example, “Financial Manager” or “Continuous Innovative Learner.”)

Page 51: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

How to Complete an IDP• Next, how will you learn it? Would it be best to take

a class? Or read a book? Or make a site visit to see a machine or process in action? Or talk with an expert? Or do some research? Or take a computerized tutorial? Or…? Consider using a blend of resources!

• In the third column of the IDP, identify the learning options that are available to you. (For example, “Excel 2000 Introduction class”, “Excel for Dummies book”, or On-line Computer-Based Training – CBT – through SCG University.”)

Page 52: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

How to Complete an IDP• Finally, how will the supervisor support this plan?

Class registration approval? Help with scheduling time off and arranging coverage while you’re in a class? Financial support? Feedback on your progress? Other?

• In the final column of the IDP, explain the supervisor’s role. (For example, “Arrange coverage while I take a class or complete the on-line tutorial.”)

The Process – Putting It All Together!

Planning, Communicating, and Evaluating

Page 57: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

ContinuousCommunication andFeedback• Annual Evaluation: A two-part meeting that

occurs annually for two purposes: 1) to evaluate your performance during the past twelve months, and 2) to plan for the coming twelve months.

• Periodic, less formal discussions throughout the year. (At least a mid-year meeting; quarterly meetings are strongly encouraged.)

Page 58: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

Part 1:– Employee and Supervisor each give input on past year’s

performance, strengths, opportunities, ideas.– Both review written information on job-related performance

measures, kudos, training completed, etc.– Discuss new objectives, key activities, performance measures and

targets for the coming year.

Part 2: – Review written evaluation summary, receive salary decision, agree

on future performance activities and training opportunities.

The Annual EvaluationEach year you will participate in a 2-part annual evaluation meeting. Most likely, the two parts of this meeting will occur a few days apart. Here is what to expect:

Page 59: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

Checklist• During the Performance Management class,

a “Checklist for Success” is provided to employees and to leaders. This checklist explains what to expect and how to prepare for the annual evaluation.

• The next few slides provide highlights of this process. You are strongly encouraged to use the checklist!

Page 60: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

Preparing for the Annual Evaluation Meeting – Part 1

• Review last year’s performance measures and targets, and be prepared to discuss your accomplishments – and challenges! Complete Part A as your “self-evaluation.”

• Review the core competencies, and be prepared to share specific examples of how you have demonstrated each one. Complete Part B as your “self-evaluation.”

• Review the current Business Plan and begin thinking about possible objectives/key activities for the coming year, as well as possible learning needs.

Page 61: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

Changing to the New System…• If this is your first appraisal using the new

performance management system, you may not have a pre-planned “Part A.” So…– List your major accomplishments for the year,

using just columns 1 and 4, and the rating.– If you did establish some goals at your previous

appraisal, use them!– Do NOT spend lots of time trying to

retroactively create a complete Part A; instead, focus more energy on Part B for the past year and on planning Part A for next year!

Page 62: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

Preparing for the Annual Evaluation Meeting – Part 2

• Employee’s Responsibilities:– Consider the future

desired outcomes, key activities, performance measures and targets you discussed. Is there anything that should be added or changed?

– Create a draft of your IDP for the coming year (Part C).

• Supervisor’s Responsibilities:– Finalize written summary of

the performance appraisal.– Finalize merit increase

determination.– Consider the future desired

outcomes, key activities, performance measures and targets you discussed. Is there anything that should be added or changed?

– Be prepared to discuss the IDP.

Page 63: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

After the Meeting…• Finalize all paperwork.• As needed throughout the year, discuss and update

the objectives, key activities, performance measures and targets, and Individual Development Plan.– Determine when you will meet again (quarterly or

semi-annual) and schedule your next meeting.– Use Employee Initiated One-to-One Meetings as

needed.

Page 64: Performance Management Tutorial

MainMenu

• In addition to semiannual or quarterly performance management discussions, employees may request a meeting with their supervisor at other times during the year as well. If you’d like some help in preparing for a meeting you’ve requested, use the “Employee Initiated One-to-One Form”. This is available on the Human Resources intranet site under “performance management.”
