Scaling Continuous Performance Management: Next Steps for HR Leaders

Your Continuous Performance Management Journey is Underway

Based on your survey results, your organisation is already taking meaningful steps towards continuous performance management (CPM), and that’s something to celebrate 🎉

You’re ahead of many peers, but to truly embed CPM and make it scalable across the business, it’s time to build on that momentum. In this post, we’ll guide you through your next moves with practical actions and resources to help you level up.

🔍 1. Shift from Process to Culture

You've likely introduced regular one-to-ones, started capturing feedback, or experimented with OKRs.

Now, the focus should be on making these behaviours part of your culture.

✅ Next action: Review how consistent these practices are across managers and teams. Is it embedded or still leader-dependent?

💡 2. Enable Your Managers

Managers are key to successful performance practices. But if they’re not supported, even the best strategy will stall.

✅ Next action: Audit your current manager toolkits. Do they have guidance on running one-to-ones, setting goals, and giving feedback?

🎯 3. Strengthen Goal-Setting and Alignment

If you're using goals like OKRs but find they’re inconsistently applied, you're not alone. Many companies stall here. The key is clarity, visibility, and regular check-ins.

✅ Next action: Run a quarterly goal-setting workshop. Align team and company goals and make them visible to everyone.

📈 4. Track Progress & Celebrate Success

To drive long-term change, show what’s working. Reporting on participation (in 1:1s, feedback, goal progress) helps create accountability — and showcasing wins builds buy-in.

✅ Next action: Identify 2-3 KPIs for performance culture (e.g., % of employees with active goals, feedback given, or 1:1s held).
