The Performance Preview, an Alternative to Performance Review

The Performance Preview, an Alternative to Performance Review | Performance Management | Scoop.it

Management consultant and UCLA professor Samuel Culbert offers a solid alternatives to problematic performance review practices in his 2008 book “Get Rid of the Performance Review:” 


  • In chapters 7 and 8, I offer the alternative—the performance preview. It’s as simple and elegant as it is successful. It does all the things performance reviews are supposed to do but don’t. 
      
  • In the end you will see what many of you already know in your heart: that mainstream management is embedded in, and relies on, a culture of domination—and that the performance review is the biggest hammer management has. 
      
  • You will see how the review destroys our spirit, as well as our corporate performance. You will see how the same people who created this sorry mess have the power to undo it. And you will see that there is a way to fix it, if only we have the courage.

Deb Nystrom, REVELN's curator insight, November 18, 2013 1:03 AM

"If only we have the courage," is a key observation by Culbert.

Risk-aversion, low courage, and avoidance is a malaise that can affect segements of, or even entire corporate cultures.  

Key points of Dr. Culbert's frank writings include:  

  • separating compensation from performance reviews, 
  • taking a look at the role of hierarchy to include that of a boss asking  “how can I help you achieve your best?” 
  • ending low value pratices like ranking and ratings.
