Performance Management
People drive the success or failure of a business. Unfortunately, managing performance within organisations is rarely done well. At Balanced Curve, we recognise the importance of having a robust and meaningful Performance Management system in place. We have practical experience managing teams and delivering Performance Management systems that work.

We adopt a simple but effective approach to working with leaders and managers when reviewing a Performance Management system, asking questions such as:

  • Are the business objectives clear and well understood?
  • Are people aligned to the business objectives?
  • Do we have clarity about the roles we need to achieve our objectives?
  • Do we have the right people in place?
  • Do our people have clear and meaningful job descriptions?
  • Do our people have clear work plans and key performance indicators?
  • Do we have an appropriate learning and development program?
  • Are we providing regular and meaningful feedback on performance?

The answers to these questions shape our approach.  We provide managers with proven templates for weekly and monthly team meetings and performance reviews. We provide ongoing independent support to assist with Performance Management when things get tough.
