## Resource

How can HR Rethink Performance Management? Why is Performance Management broken and what can HR do about it? My guests on this episode are Edie Goldberg & Alan Colquitt, co-authors of “Performance Enablement: A New Model for Driving Organizational Performance.” During our conversation, Edie, Alan, and I discuss the following: Why traditional performance management systems were built for a different era of work. How performance management became more about compensation than improving performance. Why shifting from performance management to performance enablement changes the leadership mindset. How continuous coaching and feedback outperform annual reviews and performance ratings. Why team-based goals better reflect how work actually gets done in modern organizations.
