How to Encourage Success and Curtail Issues in Performance For organizations to achieve their goals, managers need to create a work environment that helps employees succeed to the best of their abilities.

Managing employees' performance effectively ensures that the right work gets done in the right way, reduces turnover, increases productivity, improves morale, commitment, and motivation, and minimizes problems in the organization. Managing the Work of Your Direct Reports takes a holistic approach to managing employee performance, from setting employees up for success to supporting their everyday work to discussing progress and evaluating results through performance reviews.
