Key Features & Benefits
- Performance Objectives and Cascading Goals: Performance management is about everyone understanding the objectives and goals they have.

- Core Responsibilities Review: If you already have competence-based role descriptions, managers and employees can complete an assessment of performance against those key competences through Talent Performance®.
- Talent & Succession Planning: Talent Performance® can support succession planning activities by not only assigning a 'Talent Category' to each team member, but also assigning them to appropriate 'Talent Pools'.
- Development Activities: Development activities can come from a wide variety of sources and stimuli and Talent Performance® provides a single place for all such activities to be created and managed.
