The challenges that are faced by staff and managers in implementing performance
management systems
There are numerous challenges that could be faced in the process of implementing
performance management systems, the issues faced by staffs and the managers are different
from each other and they have their own implications as well.
The challenges faced by staffs during the implementation of performance
management systems include the poor management of performance (Aguinis 2012). In case
the performance management is not carried out due to various issues, the staffs face issues
related to the quality of their performance which prevents them from knowing the bottlenecks
that exist within their performances, this further prevents them in improving the attributes
within their performance that requires further improvement.
The challenges that are faced by managers include issues in leadership and
management commitment. The leadership as well as management commitment challenge
seems to have a huge impact on the process of integrating performance management (Noe,
Hollenbeck and Gerhart 2017). This is because usually professionals like managers fail in
maintaining the commitment of leadership as well as management, the next issue that is faced
by the managers include the lack of alignment this issue is faced due to the numerous
organizational processes that are created in the state of isolation (Armstrong 2014). In this
certain issue, the budgeting as well as operational planning is created by numerous groups
having completely different frameworks lacking alignment within the system and the
performance of individuals, organizational measurements regarding the delivery and the
departmental performance.
The ways by which HR leaders can help the staffs and managers overcome these
challenges
