Performance Management

The Basic Performance Management Test assesses essential skills for managing staff effectively. Candidates are evaluated on their understanding of key skills, such as evaluating performance, delivering constructive feedback, and supporting staff development.

The test covers fundamental concepts, such as setting realistic and SMART objectives (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, and Time-bound goals) that provide clear direction and expectations for staff. Implementing such goals are vital to ensure team members know what they’re working towards and how to achieve it.

Feedback is another core component, with the test assessing a candidates ability to provide useful insights to help employees grow. Additionally, the test dives into performance improvement plans, designed to support employees in meeting specific improvement areas.

Finally, the test examines the importance of aligning individual goals with company objectives, ensuring that everyone works toward shared success. This assessment confirms a candidates grasp of performance management basics, aimed at fostering staff growth, engagement, and overall organisational success.
