Performance Management
As most CEO’s and top management know, to achieve the “right” business results and more so, to achieve these consistently over time means that the performance of its people will most influence the organisations ability to achieve its strategic goals. A key performance management framework is essential, together with the ability to evolve and adapt performance management culture at each level of the organisation.
At 98Degrees Strategic Management Services we work with our clients in helping define the gaps in accountability, performance measurement metrics, policy refinement and even organisational resource structuring. The result is a highly effective blend of change management, operating model refinement and performance management frameworks that place companies and their people in a better position to succeed.
Performance management extends to various areas of the business' operational competency and 98Degrees Strategic Management Services’ highly experienced team of specialist consultants will assist clients with the evolution and optimisation of key business results in the following areas:
