October 3, 2005
Susan Heathfield at About.com is talking about performance management today. According to Susan – “Peformance Management includes the entire relationship you have with the people you employ.”

Compensation Planning, Development Planning and Goal Management are other aspects of WPM that Susan highlights.
A quote:
Performance management is the process of creating a work environment or setting in which people are enabled to perform to the best of their abilities.
