How might these three employees’ characteristics affect the performance of the organization? In my opinion it seems to me that the most common concern is the personality trait. All three of the employees have different personality traits; this will require a different means of communication from a manager. To look a bit deep, a manger must know his people and their capabilities, for instance placing people in the right job makes all the difference in the world and can greatly affect the organization performance in a positive or a negative way. For a better example, let look at employee number one from our employee questionnaire, in the case of Dontae, he has a introvert personality with strong individual skills in supply procurement.

The detailed concept conveys that specific goals give an employee a clear understanding of what is the task at hand and how much effort needs to be expended. (Robbins & Judge, pg
As a result, one person usually has more power or authority in the relationship that the other.

Subject: Briefing note on supporting good practise in Performance and Reward Management ‘The conventional definition of management is getting work done through people, but real management is developing people through work.’ Agha Hasan Abedi Explain at least 2 purposes of performance management and its relationship to business objectives. Often viewed in a negative light (to be performance managed often means to be closely managed due to poor performance) performance management is actually a vital, positive tool that can help an organisation deliver success by improving performance through developing the capabilities of its individuals and teams. One of the key purposes of performance management is personal development of employees. By comparing their performance against strategic organisational goals and objectives, an organisation has a consistent way of measuring an individual’s performance or that of an entire department or team. The insight gained could be specific to the individual or could highlight an operational shortfall.
This is very difficult because in order for the team to feel as equally passionate about the common goal, the manager must communicate the goal in a way that makes each employee feel they are doing their part individually to achieve the common goal. The same goal cannot be communicated to the IT staff in the same way that it is communicated to the operations staff. Each subset of teams has a separate objective all leading to a common goal. Knowing when and how to deal with employees who are performing low is also pertinent as a general manager. Ultimately the general manager wants to have a great team.

Ethical standards are the code of conduct required by the organization for workers to follow. The relationship between organizational culture and ethics is that the organizational culture guides workers when faced with ethical problems. If the organization culture counters what they are required to do ethically, workers may put the organization in jeopardy by not act ethically. When a worker is faced with a decision that others within the organization think as appropriate, though it is unethical, the worker may follow what is acceptable as per the culture. It is the relationship between organizational culture and ethics that can get businesses into significant trouble in the long term.

1. Describe at least two purposes of performance management and their relationships to business objectives. Performance management is about: “Directing and supporting employees to work as effectively and efficiently as possible in line with the needs of the organisation” a) One of the purposes of performance management is to help the employee identify the knowledge and skills required in order to complete their role. This is important for business so the employee can work efficiently to meet the organisations needs and goals. b) Following on from above it is a good opportunity to find out if the employee requires any training or needs to attend any courses in order to fulfil their role which is important for the organisation because poor performance will inadvertently lead to targets not being reached, which will lead to the business not thriving.
