Technology is an indispensable tool for people professionals involved in managing employee performance. Digital data, analytics and workflow automation have revolutionised the way organisations measure, report and understand employee performance. As these become more sophisticated and entrenched, it is crucial for people professionals to ensure that their use is responsible, ethical and compliant with relevant regulations.
This guide examines how technology is used across the different stages of performance management and introduces you to the benefits and risks of using technology to equip you with new knowledge to advocate for ethical and sustainable practices.
People professionals can use this guide to navigate the complex world of technology-driven performance management and apply the guiding principles of responsible technology use to create a more inclusive, diverse and equitable workforce for the future.
