Quarterly goals, scored the same way for everyone.

What it does.

Praxis gives every team the same quarterly rhythm and does the scoring, so ratings are comparable across the company.

Quarterly KPIs

  • The line manager sets targets; HR or the MD approves or returns them
  • Employees enter their actual results
  • Achievement worked out against each target, including targets where lower is better

Self-appraisal

  • Achievements, challenges, next-quarter goals and training needs
  • Five rated dimensions, from goal achievement to quality of work
  • Can't be submitted until every approved KPI has a result
  • Reminder emails to anyone who hasn't submitted

Scoring

  • Quarterly rating: 70% KPIs and 30% self-rated dimensions
  • Optional quarterly financial targets for staff who have them
  • Scores and appraisals exported to Excel

Reviews, plans and recognition

  • Review cycles and templates with weighted sections
  • Performance improvement plans with objectives, reviews and the employee's response
  • Staff of the Quarter awards, with a citation and a notice to the winner
