How does PPM differ from traditional performance management models?
Like traditional systems, POSITIVE PERFORMANCE Management communicates expectations, provides recognition, holds people accountable, and ensures defensibility when formal action or discharge is required. It does so, however, based upon an entirely different process and rationale. Traditional performance management seeks compliance, command, and control by way of rules, regulations, and “carrot and stick” incentives. POSITIVE PERFORMANCE Management works toward positive results and relationships through a collaborative process emphasizing continuous development and personal responsibility. POSITIVE PERFORMANCE Management gives managers the tools to help people improve regardless of their current performance. Managers and leaders learn how to influence results and build strong relationships across the entire spectrum of associates.
