Mainly related to enterprise staff 's work ability, work attitude, work performance (Neely et al,2005).

Pamenter (2003) points out that should transfer the purpose of the traditional performance measurement to the improvement of employees. But transferred the purpose of the performance measurement to the staff, there is a certain one-sidedness, subjectivity in the evaluation process, the role of the assessment will be
The Performance Measurement is a way to either measure or give a understandable value to what has been done compared to what was supposed to be done. It applies to all aspects in the working environment, such as procedures, critical activities and processes. In other words, first you set pre-defined goals and give away tasks and responsibilities to other workers, then at the deadline you can compare the achieved results to what the original goal was at the beginning. It is also useful to evaluate not only the final result, but even all the actions taken to get that particular results and the way the actions have been taken as well.

The definition of the subjective performance measure The subjective performance measure is a concept which is brought out compared to the objective performance measure. The objective performance measure refers to a measure method which compares the actual performance with the set performance goal based on some measures and formulas. Objective measures can be applied to legal contracts, because they are totally observable and testable. On the contrary, subjective measure is based on the person’s judgments or subjective measure method based on subjective indications. Being different from objective measures, subjective measures can’t be tested by other people, usually is only observable to the superiors. Besides that, subjective performance measure is used due to some uncertain factors and unexpected accidents. It has many forms, includes subjective determined weight, evaluation system contains some subjective measures and the factors decided by management based on the situations. Of all the forms, the subjective measure is the main one. Theoretical basis and proposition Figure 1 is the theoretical framework of this research paper. This study finds that the application of subjective performance measures in Chinese enterprises are influenced by economic factors as well as institutional factors.

Measuring performance means when a business will measure the quality of the activities that are passing and the quality of the services provided to the customers by employees.

Performance management relates to an organization’s ability to implement a system to evaluate and advance employee performance. Achieving peak performance requires consistency, clear objectives, and constructive employee evaluation.

There are so many focuses or themes that I might construct on my individual paper on ‘Developing high performance working’. One of them is functions of performance management; this will include strategic, administrative and the developmental. According to (Baron and Armstrong, 1998 cited in Bloisi, 2007:254), they “emphasise and integrated nature of performance management”. The second one is the administrative function; several organisations nowadays use performance management to evaluate employees about their salaries, retentions, redundancies and individual performance. Lastly, the developmental function should enable managers to identify where employees are not performing well and how they can improve it. Additionally, I will be explaining the performance appraisal and how does it process. According to (Bloisi, 2007:259), performance appraisal is the “process of measuring and evaluating employees’ performance. It can be a useful tool for employee development”. Dealing with poor performance is another topic that I will include in my individual paper; managers have to identify employees with poor performance, so they can take an action on them. Lastly, I will include performance management and how managers can administrate performance within the
A performance management system should consist of planning, monitoring, reviewing and evaluating (Hrcouncil.ca, 2015). During the planning phase management should identify, clarify and agree upon expectations of the employee. Also, in this phase management needs to determine how results will be measured, agree on the monitoring process and document the plan for performance management. Furthermore, this step is imperative for management to identify and ensure the performance objectives are explicitly stated to the employee. In the development of this phase management would
Performance management is one of the most important activities of HR. It is not enough to simply go through the business as usual and much disliked annual exercise of assessing performance and driving rewards based on a performance assessment. The information system will be drive and modifies goals as needed, assesses performance against goals, and provides instant feedback which will give them an indication of their strength and weaknesses thus focusing on skill development and motivate employees to stay with the organisation.

Employee performance is composed of weighing employee’s talent, providing constructive performance feedback, and handling talent problems. Employee performance is measured to make employees aware of the manager’s expectations and to keep them on track by embracing goals, assessments, and measures (Cascio, 2010).

To get the accurate measure of your employees’ performance must be organize. Organization set the content of the job with tasks that are associated with knowledge, skills, and abilities. Evaluations make statements just not for
Judging by attendance at business conferences and writing on the subject [1], performance measurement has become a popular topic for both industrialists and academics, reaching the stage of being identifiable as a specific subset in the operations management literature [2]. Recent research by Hackett Group suggests that the balanced scorecard [3] is becoming a widely used performance measurement tool in the USA. However, despite this popularity, there is evidence that not all performance measurement initiatives are successful [4–7]. Other researchers have claimed that 70% of attempts to implement performance measurement systems fail [8]. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to contribute to a better understanding of the factors which influence the success or failure of performance measurement initiatives through reviewing the literature. The paper starts by considering the definitions used in performance measurement and, as the field is still rapidly evolving, the current meaning of the terms. The paper then goes on to briefly trace the background to the development of performance measurement and the main performance measurement frameworks. The

Research has identified a gap amongst the managers and employees’ perception about performance management theory and its actual practice (Bratton J. and Gold J. 1999). In practice, most organizations do not employ the performance management process to its full capacity in motivating employees (Morris et al. 1991). Though in theory, the general acknowledgment that performance management is a tool used to promote employee understanding of its contribution to organizations strategic goals; while also ensuring that the right talent and skills are centered on the things of importance. Yet in practice, it is regarded as just a documentation phase that is used to fulfill basic organizational and statutory requirements (CIPD 2009). In simple terms, performance management can be described as a strategic part of human resource management; which is an all-inclusive process that aims to bring together various aspects including performance appraisal (Boxall and Purcell, 2003). Noticeably, an important aspect of performance appraisal is enhancing performance, which is a key element of organizational life and performance
