While there are no one-size-fits-all approaches when it comes to performance management, it is important for us to distinguish between traditional and progressive forms of performance management. Though they both are methods of reviewing performance, you will notice that these two methods often result in different outcomes.

Breaking down the difference between traditional methods of performance management and progressive methods of performance management can help us understand just how far performance management has come since the early 1950’s.
