Taleo Perform™

Performance Management Software for Employers of Choice

Employee performance management for small business centers on retaining your top performers. With strong talent already on your team, you're more likely to reflect a reputation as an employer of choice—so you can continue to attract the most productive candidates.

Taleo Perform provides the performance management software and tools you need to keep high performers in place. Start by building the right foundation for evaluating progress, so performance reviews are strategic—not just administrative. Make the right impact on your workforce by aligning goals and maintaining communication between managers and employees, so workers remain motivated. And plan for the future of your employees, so they know you believe in their skills and contributions.

Features

Goals Management

Make the right impact when you keep top performers engaged and productive. Establish quantitative and qualitative employee goals, define expectations, and align employee goals to broader company objectives.

Performance Reviews

Think strategically to keep top performers motivated. Use configurable, flexible review templates and business processes to define and monitor the full employee review cycle. Managers can use a behavioral competencies library to quickly and easily initiate the review process from their desktops and monitor employee self-appraisals and manager assessments.

Employee Website

Ensure employees and managers have the right performance management tools at hand, and that performance expectations are understood. Taleo Perform includes a secure Employee Website portal for easy access to basic employee data, company messaging, assigned goals, performance reviews, and self-assessments.

360 Multi-rater Feedback

Enhance performance reviews with more comprehensive feedback from subordinates, peers, and supervisors. Additionally, employees can complete self-assessments and submit them online through the Employee Website. This 360-degree view offers a broader perspective on performance, so workers and managers can better gauge progress, drive business results, and plan for future development.

Career Planning

Show your employees that their career paths are deeply entwined with the future of the business. Track employee ambitions, educational progress, willingness to relocate, areas of expertise, languages spoken, flight risk potential, and promotion readiness—so you can match current bench strength to future opportunities.

Employee Record

Track and review employee data, create and assign weighted goals, and create and manage performance reviews.

Administration

Simplify repetitive tasks to focus your efforts on value-added tasks. Use a drag-and-drop interface for templates, and easily customize everything from Employee Website pages to access control settings to system templates for automated notifications.

Compensation

Take performance reviews to the next level by tying achievement directly to compensation. Taleo Comp, which integrates with Taleo Perform, provides a Pay-for-Performance framework that enables managers to correlate performance to employee base pay and bonus allocation, while ensuring compliance with the organization's compensation standards.
