What’s involved in a performance management framework
There are four cornerstones to any performance management framework:
• Establishing clear and specific objectives, key performance indicators (or measures) and targets – “What the employee needs to achieve.”
• Identifying competencies or behaviours critical to success in the role – “How an employee can best achieve their objectives.”
• Providing all employees with regular and honest feedback and coaching on how they are performing.
• Recognising and rewarding performance through appropriate compensation and professional and personal development.
There are two distinct parts to a performance management framework. Performance management is the overall system and the appraisal process is the formal reporting of an employee’s performance. For a more detailed definition of them:

Performance appraisal refers to the assessment and evaluation of individual performance.
