Progressively Capturing Behaviour – Performance Reviews
Progressively Capturing Behaviour and Optimising Performance Reviews
In the business world, the conventional approach to performance reviews involves conducting them once or twice a year. Unfortunately, this periodicity often leads to a rushed scramble among managers to gather information and attempt to recall employee behaviours over the specified timeframe. A manager may disproportionately focus on an employee’s most recent performance—positive or negative—rather than considering their performance over the entire review period.
Managers strive to appear competent and in control of their team members’ performance, inadvertently causing them to overlook opportunities for a comprehensive assessment of performance over the entire review period, which could span the last 6 or 12 months. This tendency to focus on the most recent month or two, known as the ‘recency effect’, emerges as a natural reaction. Consequently, valuable chances to gain deeper, balanced insights into job performance and foster a more holistic understanding of one’s role tend to slip through the cracks.
Ripple is a tool designed to systematically and objectively capture behavioural patterns and performance metrics progressively throughout the entire review period. By implementing Ripple, organisations empower their team members to continuously learn and adapt within their roles, minimising any ‘surprises’ during formal performance discussions. Ripple paves the way for an unbiased approach to evaluating individuals in fulfilling their job responsibilities, offering the ultimate solution for fair and objective performance assessments and development plans.
