Cytiva Announces Free Webcast: Performance Management in a Down Economy

Performance Management Software Pioneer Discusses Issues and Opportunities for Employee Performance Management in Tough Economic Times

Emeryville, CA (PRWEB) April 21, 2009 -- Cytiva, developers of talent management solutions, SonicRecruit, SonicOnboard and SonicPerform, announced today a new performance management focused webcast in their 2009 TalentTalk Series entitled Performance Management in a Down Economy.

Many industries are being asked to do more, with less people. Demand side economic drivers have fundamentally changed how organizations do business, and the need to change strategies and remake a workforce to execute these strategies will ripple through many sectors of U.S. business. Smart companies are looking to their performance management systems to help them through this difficult time, but it’s not the same kind of performance management that many companies practiced prior to the meltdown.

“Performance Management in a Down Economy” will show you how a focus on productivity, alignment and technology can help get your organization focused, increase retention of top talent, and provide insight to help you make tough personnel decisions.

“After the last eight months, I firmly believe organizations should take a mulligan, give their managers a year off from doing performance evaluations and focus on rebuilding a new foundation of alignment and performance for the future,” said Ian Alexander, Vice President for Cytiva. “The Performance Management in a Down Economy webcast is designed to show HR organizations how to focus their performance management systems to serve the needs of their key stakeholders through the practice of alignment, feedback and measurement of evolving organizational objectives.”

Performance Management in a Down Economy aims to give practical, real world advice in a no-hype, non-sales environment. It is presented by Ian Alexander, Vice President of Cytiva. As former president leading performance management software provider CCHKnowledgePoint, Alexander has seen thousands of companies wrestle with performance management issues from both a process and technology standpoint.

Performance Management in a Down Economy takes place Thursday, April 23 at 10 AM PDT. To register for this free webcast, simply visit https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/330054617%20.
