ACTIVITY: BRAINSTORM

PLANNING
It is important to look at the various levels of planning within an
organisation. This is because as someone responsible for people
management, you need to understand levels of planning within an
organisation so that you can develop work plans accordingly.
STRATEGIC PLANNING
• Strategic planning is an organisational management activity used to set
priorities, and direct energy and resources.
• Strategic planning helps guide decisions and actions so they reflect
what an organisation is fundamentally about, what actions it takes and
why, and who it serves.
SMART GOALS
• Specific
• Measurable
• Achievable
• Realistic
• Timed
PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS
An important part of work allocation is ensuring that team members
understand the expectations that are required of them. These include
performance standards, key performance indicators, behavioural
expectations and measures.
PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
• These are the levels of performance hoping to be achieved.
• A performance standard is usually a statement that will indicate
specifically how well a job is to be done and is measurable either
quantitatively or qualitatively.
ACTIVITY: DISCUSS
Discuss or review the following examples of performance standards:

RISK ANALYSIS
A risk is an event or circumstance that could happen that would result in a
negative effect on the business.
Common business risk categories include:
• Strategic risks • Operational risks
• Compliance risks • Environmental risks
• Financial risks • Reputational risks
LEGAL REQUIREMENTS
When risk is concerned, an organisation will also have to consider
legislation relating risk management.
PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT
So, what does performance management involve? Well, this will depend
upon the organisational objectives and policies, legislative requirements,
organisational structure, industry and the strategic, tactical and
operational planning of the organisation.
ACTIVITY: WATCH
Watch the following introduction to performance management: to developing &
managing performance management systems.

LEGISLATIVE REQUIREMENTS

legislative requirements and be in line with an organisation’s objectives
and policies.
ACTIVITY: READ

management.

PERFORMANCE REVIEWS
• Performance reviews play a big part in monitoring and evaluating
performance.
• They are often held annually and provide an opportunity for employee
and manager to discuss how well they have performed over the year.

The trainer/assessor will facilitate a discussion about the outcomes from the research.
INFORMAL FEEDBACK
If you are managing individuals or teams, providing informal and
continuous feedback ensures that everyone clearly understands how they
are doing and provides open communication.
COACHING
• Coaching can support employees on the job and also provides an
opportunity for informal feedback.
• Mentors are widely used to provide positive feedback, support and
advice to help employees develop skills and networks in the
organisation.
DOCUMENTING FEEDBACK
• If you are documenting feedback, then this is more than likely for
formal methods of feedback.
• It can be used to improve performance, reward performance, identify
training needs and provide a record for performance reviews.
PERFORMANCE GAPS
This is the gap between the individual’s actual performance and the
required performance standard.
ACTIVITY: RESEARCH
Research a disciplinary policy for an organisation in your industry or your current
employer. What is the process used for underperforming employees? Briefly list down
the steps undertaken by the organisation. What other documentation is referred to in
the policy?
ACTIVITY: WATCH
Click on the following link to view a YouTube clip that demonstrates how to identify
performance gap training and development.

Note down any key takeaways.
RESPONDING TO UNDERPERFORMANCE
The development of a performance improvement plan can be used to
monitor any or poor performance issues and support a person to identify
what these are and develop goals to improve.
EXCELLENCE IN PERFORMANCE
Continuous feedback as discussed previously could be both informal and
formal. Providing day to day feedback and encouragement and
appreciation can boost the morale of employees.
