  • 1.  Performance Improvement Plan format

    Posted 05-05-2010 22:58
    Greetings All: I am looking for some formats for managers to use to develop performance improvement plans with their direct reports. It needs to be culturally ( to be used with non-
    Americans--but I can alway adapt) sensitive and not very complicated so that it won't be intimidating to use!
    If you have anything to share I will be most appreciative.
    Thanks.

        Dear colleagues,

    I would like to post a question regarding the development of a new team climate measure (conceptualizing team climate as a shared team level construct), for which I anticipate to have approximately 3 subscales, and a total of 25 items that need to be validated – I intent to use Multilevel C onfirmatory F actor A nalysis  (cf. Dyer, Hanges, & Hall, 2005) to confirm the factor structure – how many individuals and teams would I need to validate the measure at both the individual and the team level? If this can't be eyeballed, could you suggest a reference where I can look this up?

            Many thanks in advance, and kind regards,

    Bonnie,

    The following book includes numerous examples of such employee development plans (including examples of forms that can be used):

     

    Aguinis, H. (2009). Performance management (2nd edition). Upper Saddle River, NJ: Pearson Prentice Hall.

     

    If you are planning on using this book for a course, you can request a free examination copy at the following site: http://www.pearsonhighered.com/product?isbn=9780136151753

     

    I hope this helps!

     

    Regards,

     

    --Herman.

    Bonnie,

    My work with the People Capability Maturity Model (People CMM) addresses guidelines for performance improvement plans.

    Curtis, B., Hefley, W.E., and Miller, S. (2009). People CMM, Second Edition: Guidelines for Human Capital Management. (ISBN-10: 032155390X, ISBN-13: 978-0321553904). Boston, MA: Addison Wesley.

    It has been used in multiple cultures and industries, ranging from high tech (IBM, Intel) to pharma (Pfizer) to banking (Citi), hospitality, and construction industries in multiple countries around the globe.

    Best Regards,

    bill

    Just to clarify - the full book is not available at this URL. The book has sections on global use of the People CMM that are not included in the technical report version available from the URL.

    Cheers,
