Why it matters
Clear expectations, fair reviews, real progress
Review cycles, ratings, KPIs and competencies that keep every team clear on what good looks like. Open a cycle, let everyone know, and finish with ratings on the record instead of feedback lost in email.
Cycles that run on time
Open a cycle and the whole organisation is notified; close it when it's done.
Reviews on the record
Every review has a rating and a summary, and can't be finalised without a rating.
Goals everyone can see
KPIs with targets and weightings, across four balanced-scorecard perspectives.
