Kirsty Duck: Throwing performance management out of the window! The Human Revolutionaries Show - HR, Leadership, Well-Being and Culture stories in the news
-
- Management
Hi and welcome back to the show.
On this week's episode I'm talking to Kirsty Duck, HR expert at Face2Face HR.
When I asked her what she wanted to talk about she said "Appraisals" which was a surprise since hardly anyone wants to talk about appraisals...which, of course, is the problem.
How did we develop the annual performance management process and are there better ways? Well, that's what we are talking about in the show.
Kirsty has over 20 years experience in HR and has spent much of her working life in small businesses as well as 5 years in one of the biggest companies in the world, GE. However she realised she was not cut out for the large corporate world as she is not a big fan of too many rules and regulations with convoluted chains of command. She understands small businesses and the numerous transitions they go through as they grow. She loves the fact that impact of decisions and communication are immediate, and that decisions are (mostly) approached with a balance of pragmatism and love. Kirsty’s goal is to help create working environments where people want to come to work and business owners are proud of what they have created.
We cover -
- The history and rationale for appraisals
- How to break away from annual performance reviews and what to put in instead
- How to have good conversations
- Pay and bonus decisions
Kirsty mentioned a couple of resources.
