Unfortunately, the data in the underlying HR systems isn’t set up to answer this question without a heroic effort. Infohrm has been working with its members to solve this in a repeatable and scalable solution. Come see the framework and data model they have developed to evaluate how effectively leaders are managing the human capital assets of the organization.
The State of Performance Management: A Practitioner’s View
Employee performance management can play a major role in determining the success or failure of any business endeavor, yet for many organizations, there’s room for improvement.

· 66% admit an inability to realign employee goals to corporate goals as they change throughout the year.
· Only 11% of organizations subscribe to the performance management best practice of providing ongoing performance feedback and measurement against goals.
With so much at stake – particularly during the slow road to economic recovery – organizations need to make talent management a priority. We recently teamed-up with the Human Capital Institute to conduct a survey of HR practitioners and identify current talent management trends.
