About This Research: This study and its companion, The Essential Guide to Performance Management Practices: Part 1, are based on multiple research initiatives conducted over the last seven months. In August 2008, Bersin & Associates conducted an extensive, quantitative survey capturing responses from more than 700 HR, learning and development, and information technology professionals to identify the key drivers, adoption levels, business challenges and trends in corporate performance management and the implementation of performance management systems. Thirty percent of the respondents are employed by companies listed in the top 100 of the Fortune 500; 28% are employed by companies appearing in the “100 Best Companies to Work For” list. Over 40% of respondents represent multi-national organizations; 13% are from companies based outside of the United States. Bersin & Associates analysts also conducted in-depth interviews with 47 HR executives to get a detailed perspective of performance management . From these interviews, the company identified 10 organizations with performance management practices and processes that yield significant business impact. These organizations represent a variety of industry segments and range in size from 5,000 to 250,000 employees. Finally, Bersin & Associates analysts conducted three-hour briefings with 25 selected providers of performance management systems. The briefings included system demonstrations that focused on use cases and presentations on company backgrounds and product roadmaps.
