There are many other factors like the budget for rewards, promotion availability, etc.. Performance or Talent management often gets convoluted with the management of the process for reviews and promotions and away from individual contribution. Hence the buzz around talent management systems which might address some of these issues. For my clients, I normally like to talk about "Performance and/or Talent Management" as "Success Facilitation". Talent is defined by successful performance and facilitation puts a different spin on recogninzing and helping develop talent for the organization. Max,
