They have realized that they can gain competitive advantage by the Knowledge and skills of their employees.


They are so concerned with satisfying and motivating of the  employees  to achieve business success and competitive advantage. This fact introduces the concept and need of an effective management system for performance.

Performance management system is a formal  process for improving any organizational performance. To do this, organizations should understand and manage their agreed goals or standards with the performance of the employees (Armstrong, 2009).

The goal of performance management is to improve employees ' ability to meet or exceed expectations and to realize their full potential to benefit both themselves and the organization (Armstrong, 2009).

Organizations get to know the importance of performance assessment as they show the increased productivity of employees of all major multinational companies that they have carried out the performance assessment and the importance of performance management and its measurement has been clarified from different points of view (Whitney, 1994).

This process starts with the recruitment of an employee into a company and concludes when that employee quite the organization. Performance management consist  of performance appraisal and performance development process.

Performance evaluation system  is the one of the methods most commonly used to ensure the importance of employee performance. The achievement of performance appraisal depends on how effectively and efficiently it is implemented. It also depends on an employee's understanding of the performance assessment system and the positive orientation of employees towards their system.

In banking sector performance management system is running well & we used to following method to evaluating the performance,

  1. Great job. The Blog is really excellent. I am sure this video helped many others who are eager to know about it. In short I would like to say the fundamental goal of performance management is to promote and improve employee effectiveness. It is a continuous process where managers and employees work together to plan, monitor and review an employee's work objectives or goals and his or her overall contribution to the organisation.
