Topic: As the pendulum swings on performance management, what does the evidence say?
Location: Marriott Courtyard at 7 Corners, 1500 S. Washington Ave., Minneapolis
We have seen a huge shift in performance management in recent years. Many companies have forgone ratings, and made a splash in the mainstream press. It is hard to not see a paradigm shift as witnessed by the topic of the 2015 SIOP Leading Edge Consortium “Building a High Performance Organization: A Fresh Look at Performance Management”. What success do companies have in making a shift? What obstacles are encountered? Where does measurement come in to play with ratings on the outs. Plus, where do compensa-tion decisions live if you divorce them from performance management? Join us as we explore these issues and more with our panel of experts from Cargill, Medtronic, and Land O’Lakes.
