The Modern Manager 279: How to Facilitate Effective Performance Management with Projjal Ghatak
Performance management enables employees to learn and grow in service of being and doing their best. It traditionally happens through one-on-ones, weekly meetings, and annual performance reviews. However, for many managers and direct reports, performance management feels like a chore. Thankfully, today's guest has figured out how to easily and effectively do performance reviews.
Today’s guest is Projjal Ghatak. Projjal is the Co-Founder and CEO of OnLoop, a mobile-first platform that helps managers and teams build better feedback loops in the global, hybrid teams of the future.
Projjal and I talk about performance management through their Collaborative Team Development framework. We get into how to do it effectively, how to make it easier on both you as the manager and your direct report, how to reduce the bias that is often embedded in the process, and so much more.
