Thanks for spending time and writing a review. In 2014 Sage introduced a global performance process and rating system to provide a framework where colleagues are recognised and rewarded for their performance contribution in a consistent way. This is in line with the Sage Values – in particular our value of ‘Doing the Right Thing’. Sage is already a successful business and we want to grow further so goal setting helps us achieve our ambitions. It is therefore important that goals for individuals are completely aligned with the business. All colleagues, along with their manager, should regularly review their goals and assess progress during their one-on-one meetings. Whilst we have guidelines in place I can assure you the process is not forced. Our HR teams support our managers in the performance process to objectively help them with consistency, levelling and fairness. Indeed, our global performance data for FY15 shows that we have a large skew towards positive ratings which means that 90% of our colleagues were rated as Meeting Expectations or above. Sage prides itself on rewarding colleagues for high performance and offers a range of competitive merit incentives for high performance including the annual Platinum Elite where 120 high performing colleagues win a holiday at a luxury holiday destination. Thanks for the feedback.
