Intelligent Appraisel
No two people are the same – therefore the performance appraisal conversation shouldn’t be either!
Welcome to IPA Nordic’s universe for conducting company performance reviews. The concept has been developed as a digital support and facilitation of performance reviews.
The performance appraisal is first and foremost a dialog between manager and employee, and the conversation should therefore be dominated by appreciative questions and a focus on tasks that have been successfully solved. The performance appraisal focuses on what works. The performance appraisal should also be considered in the context of the company’s strategy and goals, and the managers conducting The performance appraisal interviews should therefore incorporate these strategic goals into the The performance appraisal interview.
The performance appraisal conversation should be big data
The performance appraisal interview should be followed up with an evaluation of the impact of the conversations and agreements for the entire company.
Finally, the performance appraisal interviews provide important data regarding e.g. employee satisfaction and other “Big Data” that should be used as a basis for analysis and actions of strategic importance to the company. All of this is built into the performance appraisal concept developed by IPA Nordic.
