The skill of setting goals, measuring results, and developing team and individual performance. It spans from tracking personal targets to designing organization-wide performance systems that drive continuous growth.
Performance management connects individual effort to organizational outcomes. It covers goal setting, progress tracking, feedback delivery, performance evaluation, and development planning. Beyond annual reviews, effective performance management is a continuous cycle of alignment, observation, conversation, and adjustment. Mastery means building systems where people consistently understand expectations, receive meaningful feedback, and grow.
You manage your own performance within frameworks set by your manager. You set clear personal goals, track your progress, and prepare for performance reviews with evidence of your work. You understand how your tasks connect to team goals and proactively seek feedback. This is the foundation: taking ownership of your own performance before managing others.
