Introduction to Performance Management in 2025
Performance management in 2025 is now a much broader and more strategic process than it was a decade ago. Organizations used to consider performance management simply a formal HR obligation centered on annual appraisals, appraisal sessions, and salary increases. Employees hated them because they could not help but view them as a one-way judgment and not as a productive conversation. But today, business has realized that performance management is far more than evaluating individuals on an annual basis. It is about creating a cycle of continuous communication, feedback, development, and recognition directly connecting the employee’s work and the business’s vision.
