Introduction

The performance-planning part of the performance-management sequence is primarily a joint
exploration of what individuals need to do and know to improve their performance and develop
their skills and competences, and how their managers can provide the support and guidance
they need. This requires Competence Mapping & Machine & potential development.
The performances aspect of the plan obtained agreement on what has to be done to achieve
objectives, raise standards and improve performance. It also establishes priorities—the key
aspects of the job to which attention has to be given. Agreement is also reached at this stage
on the basis upon which performance will be measured and the evidence that will be used to
establish levels of competence. It is important that these measures and evidence requirements

should be identified and fully agreed now, because they will be used jointly by managers and
individuals and collectively by teams to monitors progress and demonstrate achievements.
