- The Continuous Performance Management: Performance Management is an important process which underpins organization’s collective human capability to achieve high performance. However, in most organizations, the term "Performance Management" has a negative connotation because it tends to label processes that the business sees as, at a minimum, administratively burdensome and at worst simply dreads. There is a danger of not having a process to "develop and nurture" performance, bias and favoritism are common in the workplace. Waiting until once per year or even every six months to evaluate workers is also not enough to know key performance nor should it be. So what're the differences between Continuous Performance Management and traditional Performance Management? Where will you go by using such methods?

Value is something that is held to deserve; the importance or preciousness of something, There is an attempt to quantify the value of an employee in financial terms. To estimate the monetary worth of (something); worth - price - cost - merit - rate; appreciate - evaluate - estimate - appraise - assess. It is easier to look at direct labor costs, burden, and even recruiting/hiring and training costs. But there is an element that is even harder to put into monetary terms. How does one put a value on what an employee can add or take away from culture? How does one negative employee impact efficiency or productivity? How does a creative employee help the organization discover the new way to do things, hence saving the cost or improving the revenue., etc? The 'True Value' of an employee is: 'A total of what the employee brings to a business, now and in the future via multi-dimensional lenses (Quality, Creativity, and Productivity).' You need to look at all aspects of their individual traits, work ethic, influence, creativity, experience, ability, achievements and performance, and the hidden potential each employee has if given the opportunity to excel within the work environment.
