Unlock the secrets to revolutionising performance management with insights directly from Gill Hunt and Uli Kirschner from tech company SUSE. Discover how SUSE transformed their performance evaluations into the innovative "SUSE Sync," a dynamic system that fosters personal accountability and continuous feedback. You'll learn how this major shift was driven by employee engagement surveys revealing a demand for clearer role expectations and better feedback, ultimately aligning employees with organisational goals and boosting overall performance.
Explore the SYNC (Setting You in Control) framework, designed to cultivate a culture of personal and professional growth. Hear firsthand accounts from Gill and Uli about moving away from rigid performance ratings to an ongoing, adaptive feedback process that empowers leaders to coach their teams more effectively. You'll understand the complexities and advantages of this new approach, particularly how it influences reward differentiation and managerial decision-making without relying on traditional ratings. The duo also shares the extensive marketing and communication efforts behind the successful relaunch of this system, ensuring robust employee engagement.
Get inspired by SUSE's creative rollout strategies and learn about the importance of language in making these initiatives succeed, shifting from formal HR jargon to more inclusive terms.
