Success in the future depends on our ability to create interdependent partnerships where everyone takes responsibility for positive results.
POSITIVE PERFORMANCE Management (PPM) is a performance development process and management system that enables organizations to build:
- an environment of continuous improvement and development,
- fully participating partnerships,
- individual responsibility and ownership, and
- trust, loyalty, and commitment to individual and organizational excellence.
It replaces or enhances existing performance management policies and practices with an approach that stresses personal responsibility, open communication, mutual respect, teamwork, results, and relationships.
POSITIVE PERFORMANCE Management provides managers and supervisors the tools to help people improve regardless of their current performance.
Like traditional systems, POSITIVE PERFORMANCE Management communicates expectations; provides recognition and feedback; holds people accountable; and ensures defensibility when disciplinary action or discharge is required.
Unlike traditional approaches, POSITIVE PERFORMANCE Management is a tool for improving performance, retaining your best people, and building a culture of individual responsibility and commitment.
Traditional approaches to managing performance focus on rules and regulations. POSITIVE PERFORMANCE Management leverages the power of relationships and trust to help individuals and your entire organization succeed.
POSITIVE PERFORMANCE Management provides the systems and skills necessary to:
- encourage superior performance linked to organizational goals,
- handle disciplinary problems in a fair, defensible, and nonpunitive manner, and
- develop employees whose performance is acceptable today but must continue to grow to meet the challenges of tomorrow.
Why POSITIVE PERFORMANCE® Management is right for today's organizations
People, performance, and professionalism have never been more important.
Retention of quality people. Litigation avoidance. Growing the next generation of leadership. Increasing performance demands. These are the issues that keep leaders awake at night.
POSITIVE PERFORMANCE Management equips managers and supervisors with the tools, skills and processes that allow them to address today's challenges and the confidence to embrace tomorrow's. Organizations adopting PPM:
- develop techniques and processes to encourage individual responsibility and continuous improvement,
- maintain the due process and documentation requirements vital for fairness, consistency, and defensibility,
- incorporate a nonpunitive corrective action process appropriate for today's team-oriented and professional environments,
- utilize coaching and recognition tools,
- create an empowered environment where continuous learning exists, and
- cultivate fully participating partnerships built on a foundation of trust, open communication, and mutual respect.
