Discussions

Q-Matrix™ supports the preparation for discussions about objective setting and performance feedback.

Discussions - Effectively Supporting Quality Management

Regular discussions between managers and individuals / team members provide a foundation for establishing objectives and expectations and providing performance feedback to enable the effective execution of the organization's mission. The ability to easily prepare for these discussions and track the results are capabilities Q-Matrix™ provides in the Q-BASE module.

Structured Overview of Planned and Conducted Discussions

Q-Matrix™ helps supervisors / managers prepare for discussions with their individuals on performance expectations, performance reviews and development plans, and provides the ability to track agreements on objectives, actions, performance feedback, training, or changes to skills and competencies. Storing this information in Q-Matrix™ effectively supports the organization's Quality Management documentation requirements.

Q-Matrix™ helps ensure these discussions take place in a timely manner by displaying reminders at log-on.

While Q-Matrix™ provides extensive online capabilities, manager / individual discussions are not always the appropriate use of technology, so Q-Matrix™ can print relevant documents to prepare for the discussion(s). After the discussions, the resulting documents can be scanned and stored in Q-Matrix™ for tracking.

Manage Discussions in Detail and Track Them

With a simple mouse click, the context menu can be used to update the discussion details: capture the objectives that were agreed to, scheduled training, or update data in the qualification matrix.

Document Discussions for Personnel Files

Print the discussion's supporting documents in advance. Once the discussion has taken place, print out the discussion log for the personnel file. Of course, digital storage of the records is also possible - simply save the document as a PDF file and upload it to the employee's data.
