Following on with a look at how to rethink performance management and the appraisal process, Lucinda discusses the practical ways in which you can design your own evidence-based management process, to ensure that any decisions resulting are well thought through.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
A performance management process is promising that if we meet or exceed expectations, and contribute to the company mission, then the company will meet or exceed your career and reward expectations.
When we make this promise to our people, we must ensure that it is a promise that works both ways. We need to find a balance to make it work.
SMART stands for goals that are Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant (Strategically) and Time-bound.
In any process that we set up, the goal setting should be at the heart of things. The pinnacle of the performance evaluation process is the appraisal. The reality is, what is the point of an appraisal if there are no goals in place?

BEST MOMENTS

'It's advisable to be as evidence based as possible'

'Without quality goal setting, we are not likely to ever achieve high performance'

'It's genuinely designed to benefit the organisation and the individual'

'Goal setting with regular timely feedback is incredibly powerful'

The HR Uprising

How To Design An Evidence Based Performance Management Process

Lucinda talks to Dr. Jo Burrell from Ultimate Resilience about the findings of a report on HR wellbeing, highlighting the concerning statistics showing high levels of depression, anxiety, burnout symptoms, and low wellbeing among HR professionals.

Lucinda and Jo delve into the challenges faced by HR professionals, the lack of support systems within the profession, and the importance of setting boundaries and prioritising self-care

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Prioritise your well-being and set boundaries to prevent burnout.
Recognise the importance of self-awareness and monitor early warning signs of stress.
Challenge the culture of silence by opening up conversations about mental well-being.
Role model good well-being behaviors to inspire others to do the same.
Seek support, value yourself, and do not put yourself at the back of the queue for self-care.

BEST MOMENTS

“ So why aren't we valued? Is it that what we do isn't seen? Are we not sharing what's being done?" 

“It's having that proactive approach I think that's crucial, really

"What we found was a significantly high number of people experiencing symptoms of depression. So we found 46% of our respondents met the clinical threshold for depression”

"I think there's a culture that is about, you know, head down and carry on. That's the general message."

Be collaborative, engage with others on social media, offer feedback, and attend events to build a strong professional network.
Participate in Disrupt HR events for a fast-paced, energetic networking experience with short, impactful talks on various HR topics.
Audio podcasts are a powerful way to consume content actively, requiring dedication and focus, making them an effective medium for reaching engaged audiences.

"I think firstly you can repurpose a lot of the content that you create. So you and I, we record episodes for our respective audio podcasts and then from there you can create soundbites."

Bill Banham - HR Review

Lucinda delves into the topic of rethinking culture within organisations. Drawing on research and personal experiences, she explores various cultural models and frameworks including Competing Values Framework by Cameron and Quinn, the Culture Onion by Edgar Schein, and The Cultural Web by Gary Johnson and Kevin Scholes, Lucinda provides practical insights and tools for assessing and reshaping organisational culture

KEY TAKEAWAYS
The Competing Values Framework by Cameron and Quinn, which categorises organisational cultures into four types based on flexibility, stability, internal focus, and external focus, highlights the significance of aligning culture with strategy for organisational success.
The Culture Onion model by Edgar Schein, focusing on visible artifacts, espoused values, underlying assumptions, and leadership behaviors underscores the role of leadership in shaping organisational culture.
The Cultural Web model by Johnson and Scholes includes seven elements like organisational structures, control systems, power structures, symbols, stories, and rituals.
The key steps to drive culture change, include getting leaders on board, involving employees, aligning structures and processes, and embedding the desired culture.

BEST MOMENTS

"Culture is how we do things around here. It's almost a feeling. It's just what happens." 

"The bottom line is much as we might want strategy to be the driver, fundamentally culture is going to be stronger." 

"The visible artefacts are easy to see, but they might not necessarily represent the values and assumptions of the organisation." 

"Underlying assumptions are the deepest level of the organisational culture, the unconscious beliefs, perceptions, and attitudes shared by people in the organisation."
