The performance evaluation is a powerful tool but has become a distraction in many organizations. Employees and managers become obsessed with ratings, losing focus on the bigger picture of developing employees to reach organizational goals. AchieVe is a performance evaluation system that defines performance standards, links individual goals to organizational objectives, and helps supervisors provide clear guidance to staff. Part 1 - Performance Areas: Define behaviors that form career paths for employees, reinforce core values, and improve critical organizational functions. Part 2 - Forward Reviews: Create a review form that replaces ratings with meaningful feedback and clear guidance to employees. Part 3 - Discipline Goals: Define discipline goals that provide a foundation for job performance, career advancement, and deeper purpose. Part 4 - Strategy Links: Establish a process that empowers employees to link individual goals to organizational objectives. Part 5 - Upwards Reviews: Collect meaningful information about supervisor performance by engaging employees in a trusted feedback process. Part 6 - AchieVe Success: Put into operation the core elements of the AchieVe performance management system. Marsha and William are practitioners who established AchieVe at a global development organization over ten years ago. They have shared their approach with hundreds of other organizations, earning them the InsideNGO Operational Excellence Award and the Dr. J.P. London Award for Promoting Ethical Behavior. This book shares their step-by-step guidance to throw out the ratings in your organization and to establish a performance evaluation system that really works!
