At WorldVentures, performance management starts even before employees are hired and trained. Each job, job description and expectation is created with their specific core values in mind. The defining step of performance management is done before an applicant is interviewed. Managers and HRM both find exactly what is needed for that role, leaving little guesswork in the application and interview process. It has been stated, “You have no right to appraise the performance of and individual or group unless you have set the parameters and standards of performance and explained them to the individuals prior to the performance period.” (Rao, T. V. (2016). Pg. 188). WorldVentures makes certain the expectations are clear and understood. With a …show more content…
An example this year would be to explain what goals an employee would set for themselves and how they can help the company achieve their overall goal of reaching a billion dollars this year. Each of these questions gives an opportunity for the employee to feel engaged and see themselves as a critical part of the overall success of WorldVentures. Once the employees answer the prompted questions they are asked to grade their performance 1-5, five being the highest. At this point the PMP is turned into the direct manager, their task is to then fill out the last comment box with their own observations and set a meeting time for each of their employees. The meeting is one on one in a fairly comfortable setting. The employee is then given a chance to hear their manager’s observations and goal ideas with time to discuss and ask questions along the way. At the end of the meeting each person signs the PMP agreeing that they will work towards the agreed upon goals and understand the grade their manager has given, wither it is the same or different from the grade they gave themselves. HR is then given the PMPs for everyone’s files and assists the managers with any escalations or over the top issues as they come up. If employees need further training or development as the performance reviews conclude, WorldVentures has several different options. Leadership classes are offered to supervisors and above through the local community college.
* Set performance goals with each employee. These goals focus on the employee’s specific performance on the job, such as his productivity, output, results, competencies, and behaviors. As you set and follow up on these goals you will be helping your employees to see that the performance appraisal is not a once a year activity but instead is a way to measure their success and course correct any shortcomings throughout the year.

During the 1600s England was sending many adventurers and colonists to the new world to settle it. One famous colonist was John Smith. Smith was a leader in the Jamestown settlement in 1606, where he encountered natives, and survived being captured and imprisoned by them. Also notable among the famous colonists was William Bradford. Bradford led the Plymouth colony, which was founded in 1620. The colony survived major sickness and lack of food, but the natives were sympathetic with the Plymouth colonist, and taught them how to live off the land. Both Smith and Bradford wrote of their adventures in the new world, but they both had very different reasons for being there, which is evident in their writings
