Section 1
While reading the text book a quote jumped right out at me in the very beginning. Dana
Jarvis said “It has been said that “what gets measured gets done.” Good performance
management systems have the capability to influence employee behavior and improve an
organization’s performance. One study showed that organizations with strong
performance management systems are 40 to 50 percent more likely to outperform their
competitors in the areas of revenue growth, productivity, profitability, and market value.”
When we look at the role of HRM’s in the performance management process and how it
aligns with the organizations strategic plan I think we have to look at this quote. What company
would not want to influence employee’s behavior and improve the organizations performance?
