A next generation performance management solution is clearly needed by employees and employers alike, according to the results of a new Taleo study conducted online by Harris Interactive of 2,416 adult Americans.
Here are just a few of the key findings:
Only 12% of full and part-time workers say that their employers give them a career path plan.
43% of respondents employed full/part-time said opportunities for advancement are a key motivator.
The top reasons currently employed respondents cited as having voluntarily left jobs were pay that wasnt competitive (35%) and a lack of growth opportunities (34%).
57% of those employed full/part-time say that they have never had a performance review or said it was neutral to not useful.
Only 27% of employees who have ever had a performance review considered their most recent one to be extremely useful.
As has been the theme of many blog postings, successful talent management requires a unified, integrated approach encompassing internal mobility, talent acquisition, onboarding, performance management, career planning, succession planning, goals management, and insightful talent management reporting.
