Improving the Effectiveness of Employee Performance Management Process: A Managerial Values Approach

Abstract

This study proposes a managerial values approach to improve the effectiveness of employee performance management processes. It suggests that traditional performance management practices have limitations, as they focus only on evaluating past performance rather than facilitating future performance improvements. Drawing on the literature and expert opinions, the study identifies three main key managerial elements: goal setting, performance review and performance improvement plans. These values can guide the design and implementation of employee performance management systems that foster employee engagement, motivation, and development. The study concludes that the adoption of a managerial values approach can lead to a more effective performance management process that aligns with organizational goals and enhances employee and organizational performance.
