How Employee Performance Management happens in an IT Organization.


Objectives of Employee Performance?

Some key goals are as follow


“The main aim of performance management is to facilitate the workforce of an organization to achieve higher standards of performing their job responsibilities.
Performance management enables the employees to improve the level of their current performance by authorizing, encouraging and executing an operative reward mechanism.
Facilitating a smooth flow of communication so that potentials regarding roles, tasks, reporting are simplified between the managers and the employees. It enables the communication of corporate, business and functional goals alongside providing a systematic and apparent opinion about the performance of the employee.” (Anon., 2019)


How does it work?

In an IT organization, performance management is a crucial task which needs to be done on a timely manner. Almost all the projects are very time sensitive and to take a competitive advantage over other competitors, proper performance management is a must. In most of the IT companies in Sri Lanka, annual employee performance reviews fall from 1st of April to 30th of June, hence annul review meetings occurs during the time between the end of June and July.

After a formal discussion, then the employees have a chance to express their concerns about the feedback from the employer. During the meeting, the employee can express their future plans and their training requirements as an IT guy they should be highly updated with the latest technologies.
After the review, there will be another discussion with the top management about the incentives and salary increments. During this interview, an employee can get details about the benefits that have been amended to match with his/her current performances.

After all, there will be time to time discussions regarding the employees' needs and concerns. Most companies called this as “DevTalks”. During this time anyone can express their current requirements and their concerns about the workload and the process.

In this way, many IT organizations were able to improve the employee's job satisfaction hence the job retention which is one of the key features of the product-based IT organization.

With an effective discussion, both the employee and employer will be able to get lots of benefits. This eventually helps to enhance the quality of the business and ROI for a particular company. (Ferdandez, 2019)
