中小企业如何进行绩效管理
中小企业如何进行绩效管理--规章制度 所谓绩效管理，是指各级管理者和员工为了达到组织目标共同参与的绩效计划制定、绩效辅导沟通、绩效考核评价、绩效结果应用、绩效目标提升的持续循环过程，绩效管理的目的是持续提升个人、部门和组织的绩效。 影响绩效的主要因素有员工技能、外部环境、内部条件以及激励效应。员工技能是指员工具备的核心能力，是内在的因素，经过培训和开发是可以提高的;外部环境是指组织和个人面临的不为组织所左右的因素，是客观因素，我们是完全不能控制的;内部条件是指组织和个人开展工作所需的各种资源，也是客观因素，在一定程度上我们能改变内部条件的制约;激励效应是指组织和个人为达成目标而工作的主动性、积极性，激励效应是主观因素。 绩效管理对于中国企业已经不是一个陌生的话题，从以年终分配为目的的绩效考核到以全面提升企业管理水平为目的的绩效管理，很多经营者都希望通过绩效考核能够提高企业整体绩效水平。而如何真正将绩效管理运用到企业的经营中，并起到战略牵引的作用，也是让很多管理者头痛的问题。在绩效管理的实施中，最常见的问题就是流于形式，实际工作没有深入下去，执行不到位，造成推行绩效考核的管理成本大于绩效水平提高的效果;或者绩效考核实施目标不明确，为了分配奖金而考核，大家挖空心思寻找考核的漏洞和可能的机会，而不是将关注点集中在绩效水平的提升上。这里就涉及到绩效考核的战略导向、实施目标和切入点等一系列需要前期明确和处理的问题，在此就中国中小型企业中可能存在的一些现象做研究分析与大家共享。 在绩效考核实际实施和操作过程中，不同企业之间或相同企业在不同阶段，企业具体的战略目标是大相径庭的，这就决定了推进和实施绩效考核的切入点和侧重点也不相同。如果仅仅根据绩效考核理论生搬硬套，多数情况会象一盘好看却不好吃的菜，让人大倒胃口，有时还会造成不同程度的负面影响。 对于中国多数的中小型企业，绩效考核并不是一步到位、在短时间内建立得非常完善、表面十分光鲜就可以解决问题的;而是要从实际出发，从梳理流程、规范管理入手，开始绩效管理的第一步，等到运行时机成熟、数据积累充分之后，再将绩效考核全面推进，做到每个阶段都有明确具体的目标，每个阶段的实施都能对绩效水平的提高产生较大作用。 一、中小企业的现状与现代管理理论的矛盾 以目前中国中小型企业为例，绩效考核的操作和实施并不是一蹙而就、一步到位，建立得非常完善就可以解决问题的。在很多关于绩效考核的介绍中，为大家提供了完备的建立和实施绩效考核的方法及步骤，而从绩效考核的实施操作来看，这相当于为大家提供了一个非常规范的范本，不过这个范本通常隐含了很多假设作为前提条件，比如一般都要求企业的各项规章制度比较完备、管理流程比较清晰，从而设置各种绩效指标将目标层层分解，把企业的战略目标宣灌到各个层级的各个岗位上，从而保持多数员工的工作目标与整体战略目标的一致性，最大限度调动员工的积极性和创造性达到绩效水平的整体提升。显然，是一个完美的设想，但是对于我们多数的中小企业是否真的可以在这个美丽的设想下，实现绩效水平的大幅提升呢? 目前对于很多企业，尤其是中国的中小型企业，多数是由原来几十人、甚至十几个人的小单位或小作坊发展壮大起来的，在改革开发的市场大潮中有勇气、有魄力，做出了一番事业，在多年的经营中积累了大量的经验和竞争优势;同时这些企业最容易出现的弊病就是管理体系的不规范与落后，尤其是相对与现代化企业制度和管理理论而言。 当然，这是一定时期，中国企业发展的历史造成的，从小作坊或小单位发展到几百人、几千人、几万人甚至更大的企业，他们都有过十分辉煌的历史，但原有的经营模式和管

1 A Servlet's Job Servlets are Java programs that run on Web or application servers, acting as a middle layer between requests coming from Web browsers or other HTTP clients and databases or applications on the HTTP server. Their job is to perform the following tasks, as illustrated in Figure 1-1. Figure 1-1Web middleware role 1.1 Read the explicit data sent by the client. The end user normally enters this data in an HTML form on a Web page. However, the data could also come from an applet or a custom HTTP client program. 1.2 Read the implicit HTTP request data sent by the browser. Figure 1-1 shows a single arrow going from the client to the Web server (the layer where servlets and JSP execute), but there are really two varieties of data: the explicit data that the end user enters in a form and the behind-the-scenes HTTP information. Both varieties are critical. The HTTP information includes cookies, information about media types and compression schemes the browser understands, and so on. 1.3 Generate the results. This process may require talking to a database, executing an RMI or EJB call, invoking a Web service, or computing the response directly. Your real data may be in a relational database. Fine. But your database probably doesn't speak HTTP or return results in HTML, so the Web browser can't talk directly to the database. Even if it could, for security reasons, you probably would not want it to. The same argument applies to most other applications.You need the Web middle layer to extract the results inside a document.
中小型企业人才流失开题报告
重庆大学网络教育学院 学生毕业设计（论文）开题报告 一、课题的目的及意义（含国内外的研究状况分析）： 近年来，随着国民经济的发展，市场竞争日益加大，再加上中国加入世贸组织，国 门逐渐打开，越来越多的国外企业在中国的市场上发展壮大，抢夺市场占有份额，对国内企业 造成了很大的冲击，特别是中小企业更难立足和发展，因此提高我们企业的竞争力迫在眉睫。 我们都是知道人才对于企业的生存和发展都有着重要的意义，并起着越来越重要的作用， 尤其对于我国的中小企业而言，由于其财力、物力有限，不可能与大企业比资金、比实力，因 而人才，尤其是优秀的人才对我国的中小企业的生存与发展就有着决定性的作用。但是，由于 社会、历史和自身等诸多因素的影响，人才在我国的中小企业中往往难以发挥自己的才能，人 才流失现象相当严重，往往自己培养的核心员工成为别人的得意助手，给企业带来了不可估量 的损失。中小企业如果想要获得长足发展必须在人才方面下功夫，应该将人才战略作为整个 企业发展战略的核心，但是中小企业在人才引进、聘用、培育、留守方面存在着种种的不利和 弊端，这些直接导致了企业请进了人才而又留不住人才的尴尬局面的出现。因此如何留住人才， 如何解决人才流失这一问题就显得尤为必要。 二、课题任务、重点研究内容、实现途径、条件： 本文主要利用文献研究方法，通过多种途径收集有关中小企业人才流失现状及对策的文献 资料。主要包括相关著作、期刊杂志以及相关网站查找资料，收集数据等多个关于人才流失的 的相关著作及论文，收集我国关于中小企业相关的文献资料及法律法规等。通过搜集和整理大 量的与中小企业人才流失相关的资料，在指导老师的指导和帮助下，分析中小企业在人力资源 管理中的人才流失问题，找出原因，并结合自己所学的知识、收集的资料并整理消化写成论文。 通过新颖的论点和想法来提出自己论文的创新点，并运用所学习的知识来补充和加工。本文 先阐述课题背景和目的，从而引出人才流失的研究现状，结合现状并运用课题的研究方法来分

外文文献翻译译文 一、外文原文 Corporate Performance Management Abstract Two of the most important duties of a chief executive officer are (1) to formulate strategy and (2) to manage his company’s performance. In this article we examine the second of these tasks and discuss how corporate performance should be modeled and managed. We begin by considering the environment in which a company operates, which includes, besides outside stakeholders, the industry it belongs and the market it supplies, and then proceed to explain how the functioning of a company can be understood by an examination of its business, operational and performance management models. Next we describe the structure recommended by the authors for a corporate planning, control and evaluation system, the most important part of a corporate performance management system. The core component of the planning system is the corporate performance evaluation model, the structure of which is mapped into the planning system’s database, simulation models and budgeting tools’ structures, and also used to shape information contained in the system’s products, besides being the nucleus of the language used by the system’s agents to talk about corporate performance. The ontology of planning, the guiding principles of corporate planning and the history of ”MADE”, the corporate performance management system discussed in this article, are reviewed next, before we proceed to discuss in detail the structural components of the corporate planning and control system introduced before. We conclude the article by listing the main steps which should be followed when implementing a performance planning, control and evaluation system for a company. 1.Introduction Two of the most important corporate tasks for which a chief executive officer is p rimarily responsible are (1) to formulate strategy and (2) to manage the company’s performance.

对行销售人员激励机制分析 1激励机制的描述 1.1激励理论主要是研究激发人们行为动机的各种因素。由于人类行为 的原动力是需要，因此这种理论实际上就是围绕着人们的各种需要来进行研究。主要包括马斯洛的赫茨伯格的双因素理论、奥尔德弗的“ERG”理论、需要层次理论和麦克利兰的成就需要激励理论。 1.2 过程型激励理论重点研究人从动机产生到采取行动的心理过程。 包括亚当斯的公平理论、佛隆的期望理论和斯金纳的强化理论。 二对行销售人员激励机制分析 美国心理学家佛隆在1964年首先提出期望理论，人之所以能够完成某项工作并达成组织目标，因为这些组织目标和工作会帮助他们达成自己的目标。根据期望理论，某一活动对某人的激发力量取决于他所能得到的结果的全部预期价值乘以他认为达成该结果的期望概率。这就要求要处理好三个方面的关系：绩效与奖励的关系、努力与绩效的关系、奖励与个人需要的关系，任何一个环节都不能出现问题，否则都会导致无效激励。 从以期望理论为代表的过程型激励理论与内容型激励理论的观点来看，激励过程的科学性和合理性、激励手段对销售人员个性化需求的满足程度构成了激励的两要素。由此看出，销售人员的激励机制确实有改进的必要。 三销售人员激励体制中不足原因 3.1激励方式单一，过分依靠货币等物质激励手段而忽视精神激励的重要作用，销售人员没有归属感，缺少团队凝聚力。即使在物质激励方面，也是“佣金制”和“提成制”的天下，收入的多少完全依据销售额或利润额的多少，无视死去差异和个人实际努力程度，激励不公现象十分普遍。 3.2晋升制度僵硬，论资排辈，讲资历而忽视能力，讲关系而忽视业务水平，人浮于事，优秀人才流失严重，已不再适应市场竞争的需要。 3.3多数企业没有完整的培训激励机制，企业只注重“挖人”而非培养，因而满足不了销售人员自我发展的需要。

互联网公司如何进行研发管理和绩效考核
首先，画一下我们通常讲研发管理的范畴：确定如何立项，如何确定产品目标，如何把控项目进度，如何驱动产品一代代完善以及如何调动团队积极性等。 在时间周期上来说，我们归纳为5个关键步骤：选方向、定目标、控进度、带团队和排干扰。相配套的，则是在这五个关键步骤的一些流程和工具的使用。 一、高效研发的5个关键步骤 第一步：立项——定方向 在豌豆荚的整个研发过程中，立项称为ProductBrief或者Project Brief。团队的产品经理会撰写一个1－2页的文档，然后和执行团队进行评审，如果评审通过，立项就成功了。文档一般包含会包含以下内容： 1. 愿景：一句话表达清楚要做什么； 2. 分析市场机会和趋势，决定当前策略； 3. 确定目标用户的特征和核心需求； 4. 现存的解决方案和各自的优劣势； 5. 该项目对豌豆荚的利益点；如果不做该项目，哪些竞争对手会做，对竞争对手的利益点； 6. 需要哪些技术的支持和驱动，哪些技术是豌豆荚的弱项； 7. 人力需求； 8. 项目的紧急程度，是否需要快速推进； 9. 发布策略； 10.核心衡量指标，用来衡量成功的指标。 第二步，OKR 体系——定目标 对一个项目来说，设定目标是非常重要的，因为这决定了如何去做，以及能做到何种程度。豌豆荚采纳的目标管理是从 Google 引进的 OKR 体系（Objectives& Key Results，目标与关键成果），这跟传统的 KPI（Key Performance Indicator，关键绩效考核）稍微有些区别： 1.

资本结构与企业绩效【外文翻译】
外文翻译 Capital Structure and Firm Performance Material Source: Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System Author: Allen N. Berger Agency costs represent important problems in corporate governance in both financial and nonfinancial industries. The separation of ownership and control in a professionally managed firm may result in managers exerting insufficient work effort, indulging in perquisites, choosing inputs or outputs that suit their own preferences, or otherwise failing to maximize firm value. In effect, the agency costs of outside ownership equal the lost value from professional managers maximizing their own utility, rather than the value of the firm. Theory suggests that the choice of capital structure may help mitigate these agency costs. Under the agency costs hypothesis, high leverage or a low equity/asset ratio reduces the agency costs of outside equity and increases firm value by constraining or encouraging managers to act more in the interests of shareholders. Since the seminal paper by Jensen and Meckling (1976), a vast literature on such agency-theoretic explanations of capital structure has developed (see Harris and Raviv 1991 and Myers 2001 for reviews). Greater financial leverage may affect managers and reduce agency costs through the threat of liquidation, which causes personal losses to managers of salaries, reputation, perquisites, etc. (e.g., Grossman and Hart 1982, Williams 1987), and through pressure to generate cash flow to pay interest expenses (e.g., Jensen 1986). Higher leverage can mitigate conflicts between shareholders and managers concerning the choice of investment (e.g., Myers 1977), the amount of risk to undertake (e.g., Jensen and Meckling 1976, Williams 1987), the conditions under which the firm is liquidated (e.g., Harris and Raviv 1990), and dividend policy (e.g., Stulz 1990). A testable prediction of this class of models is that increasing the leverage ratio should result in lower agency costs of outside equity and improved firm performance, all else held equal. However, when leverage becomes relatively high, further increases generate significant agency costs of outside debt – including higher expected costs of bankruptcy or financial distress – arising from conflicts between bondholders and shareholders.1 Because it is difficult to distinguish empirically
企业如何认识和做好绩效管理
企业如何认识和做好绩效管理 随着集团绩效考评体系一系列举措的出台，同事们开始关注绩效管理，集团领导更是亲力亲为参与绩效考评办法的审定及各项配套体系建设工作。那么，何谓绩效管理？让我们大家一起来回顾这个既古老又新颖的概念，更让我们用睿智的思维去评判我们这个大家庭该如何做好这项管理工作。 什么是绩效管理 1、绩效管理的含义 所谓绩效管理，是指各级管理者和员工为了达到组织目标共同参与的绩效计划制定、绩效辅导沟通、绩效考评评价、绩效结果应用、绩效目标提升的持续循环过程，绩效管理的目的是持续提升个人、部门和组织的绩效。 对于绩效管理的含义，可以从以下三个方面进行理解： （1）绩效管理是一个过程 绩效管理是一个包含若干环节的系统，融入于我们工作的每一天，通过该系统的运行来实现企业的管理目的。绩效管理不但关注结果，更关注管理每一个环节，它是一个过程。 （2）绩效管理注重持续沟通 绩效管理特别强调通过沟通辅导实现员工能力的提高，进而实现绩效改进的目的。绩效管理不是迫使员工工作的“大棒”，也不是引诱员工工作的“胡萝”，而是以人本思想为指导的组织——员工双赢策略。各级管理者都要参与到绩效管理的过程中来，各种方式的沟通辅导贯穿于整个绩效管理系统之中，管理者与员工通过这一平台相互理解、彼此促进。（3）绩效管理的最终目的在于绩效改进 绩效管理旨在通过绩效评价促使员工持续改进工作绩效，评是手段，改进才是最终目的。组织在对员工制定的绩效计划进行跟踪考评，以绩效沟通贯穿全程，通过辅导员工持续改进绩效，从而实现组织战略目标和培育组织核心竞争力。 2、绩效管理的作用 （1）绩效管理能有效推进企业战略目标实施 企业的战略目标逐年以年度目标形式分解为部门目标，再将员工个人目
绩效考核外文文献及翻译
绩效考核外文文献及翻译 外文文献 1.Performance appraisals - purpose and how to make it easier Performance appraisals are essential for the effective management and evaluation of staff. Appraisals help develop individuals, improve organizational performance, and feed into business planning. Formal performance appraisals are generally conducted annually for all staff in the organization. His or her line manager appraises each staff member. Directors are appraised by the CEO, who is appraised by the chairman or company owners, depending on the size and structure of the organization. Annual performance appraisals enable management and monitoring of standards, agreeing expectations and objectives, and delegation of responsibilities and tasks. Staff performance appraisals also establish individual training needs and enable organizational training needs analysis and planning. Performance appraisals also typically feed into organizational annual pay and grading reviews, which commonly also coincide with the business planning for the next trading year. Performance appraisals generally review each individual's performance against objectives and standards for the trading year, agreed at the previous appraisal meeting. Performance appraisals are also essential for career and succession planning - for individuals, crucial jobs, and for the organization as a whole. Performance appraisals are important for staff motivation, attitude and behavior development, communicating and aligning individual and organizational aims, and fostering positive relationships between management and staff. Performance appraisals provide a formal, recorded, regular review of an individual's performance, and a plan for future development. Job performance appraisals - in whatever form they take - are therefore vital for managing the performance of people and organizations. Managers and appraises commonly dislike appraisals and try to avoid them. To these people the appraisal is daunting and time-consuming. The process is seen as a difficult administrative chore and emotionally challenging. The annual appraisal is maybe the only time since last year that the two people have sat down together for a meaningful one-to-one discussion. No wonder then that appraisals are stressful - which then defeats the whole purpose. Appraisals are much easier, and especially more relaxed, if the boss meets each of the team members individually and regularly for one-to-one discussion throughout the year. Meaningful regular discussion about work, career, aims, progress, development, hopes and dreams, life, the universe, the TV, common interests, etc., whatever, makes appraisals so much easier because people then know and trust each other - which reduces all the stress and the uncertainty. Put off discussions and of course they loom very large. So don't wait for the annual appraisal to sit down and talk. The boss or the appraises can instigate this. If you are an employee with a shy boss, then take the lead. If you are a boss who rarely sits down and talks with people - or whose people are not used to talking with their boss - then set about relaxing the atmosphere and improving relationships. Appraisals (and work) all tend to be easier when people communicate well and know each other. So sit down together and talk as often as you can, and then when the actual formal appraisals are due everyone will find the whole process to be far more natural, quick, and easy - and a lot more productive too. 2.Appraisals, social responsibility and whole-person development There is increasingly a need for performance appraisals of staff and especially managers, directors and CEO's, to include accountabilities relating to corporate responsibility, represented by various converging corporate responsibility concepts including: the “Triple Bottom Line”; c orporate social responsibility (CSR); Sustainability; corporate integrity and ethics; Fair Trade, etc. The organization must decide the extent to which these accountabilities are reflected in job responsibilities, which would then
