Synopsis

Performance management has tended to be driven by either the carrot or the stick approach, and a seemingly unbridgeable gap between hard measurement and soft development techniques divides HR practice in performance management. Managing and Measuring Employee Performance looks beyond these traditional methods and argues that both a metric approach and a development approach can co-exist and may, in fact, complement each other in performance management practice.
