Hannah Stratford, Head of Business Psychology at ETS and the author of the report, comments:

The paper will be a useful resource for HR practitioners yet to automate performance management processes, helping set out a robust business case for doing so. It’ll also be of interest to organisations already using an automated performance management system that has not delivered the desired results.

Here’s an overview of topics covered within the paper:

    • How an automated performance management solution can lay the foundations for successful talent management.
    • Building a business case for automating performance management – what is the return on investment.
    • Why a bespoke or ‘best fit’ solution will offer greater success for companies than an off-the-shelf equivalent.

Hannah Stratford continues:

Performance management is a critical business process that many organisations aren’t getting right.  Implementation of an effective solution helps unlock the full potential of individuals and maximise business performance.   A bespoke approach and system, offers the ‘best fit’ for larger companies rather than an off-the-shelf package.  Our experience shows that what works for one company often fails for another.
