The Performance tab on an employee profile

The Performance tab on an employee profile

The Performance tab on an employee's profile puts one person's performance history on a single page: their score card results, assessment scores by category and over time, goal progress, feedback, skills and their manager's recommendations. Use it to prepare for a one-to-one or a review conversation, or to check how someone has been tracking before you rate them.

Where: an employee's profile › Performance. The tab appears when your company uses Performance and you open someone else's profile. Your own performance is under Performance › My performance.

You need:

  • The Reviewer right to see the score card results and to add goals and recommendations
  • Access to the employee's profile in KAMI

How to review someone before a one-to-one

  1. Open the employee's profile and select Performance.
  2. Read Score Card at the top for their averages across every saved score card.
  3. In Assessment Radar, choose the assessment cycle to discuss. The radar shows their scores by question category.
  4. In Goal Tracking, choose the goal cycle. Check the progress ring and each goal's percentage.
  5. Scroll to Feedback and Skills for what colleagues have said and endorsed.
  6. Add anything you want them to work on under Manager's Recommendations.

How to add a goal for the employee

  1. In Goal Tracking, choose the goal cycle.
  2. Select Add Goal under their goals. It shows only while the cycle is open and their review isn't complete, and only with the Reviewer right.

How to add a recommendation

  1. Under Manager's Recommendations, select Add.
  2. Write the recommendation and save it.

Reading the Score Card section

These numbers are on a 0 to 5 scale, not the 0 to 100 scale on the Score Card page. An Overall Score of 3.4 here is 68 there.

They come from the copy of the scores stored each time a score card is saved, so they can lag behind the Score Card page. See Score cards: how the overall rating is built.

Each tile averages every score card, whatever its period or design. Read the rows for one score card at a time.

What Happens Next

  • A goal you add joins their goal cycle and counts towards its progress.
  • Saving or deleting a score card changes the Score Card section.

Tips

  • Open this tab before every review conversation. It shows the trend, which is easier to discuss than a single score.
  • Compare Self with Manager on the radar. The biggest gaps between the two are the best place to start the conversation.
  • Keep recommendations specific. "Lead one client call a month" can be ticked off; "be more confident" can't.

Troubleshooting / FAQ

Q: I can't see the Performance tab. Your company doesn't use Performance, or you're looking at your own profile. Use Performance › My performance instead.

Q: The Score Card section is empty or shows no rows. No score card has been saved yet, or you don't have the Reviewer right.

Q: The Score Card numbers don't match the Score Card page. This tab uses the 0 to 5 scale and the stored copy. Multiply by 20 and save the score card again to refresh it.
