There are five problems I see again and again which stop organisations from reaping the rewards of their performance management system: A murky link exists between strategy and execution. The organization has a pithy mission statement, but employees have no idea how their everyday work contributes to it. Worse, individuals don’t see how their goals connect to their personal success. Everyone scores the same. In reviews everyone scores a four out of five, so there’s little point in being outstanding and no consequence to underperforming. As Unilever CEO Paul Polman recalled, “[when] everyone scored the average, the company was average”. What’s more, reviews are all about the score as opposed to individuals’ strengths and weaknesses. Reluctant managers focus on process rather than the conversation. Good performance conversations require courage. Often managers seek harmony and want to be liked. So they blindly follow the process, seeing it simply as a box-checking exercise which has little relevance to anyone outside of HR. Individuals feel uninspired about their future. A sense of growth and progress is essential for high engagement and high performance. Yet many people, particularly those who have been in the same role for an extended period, feel uninspired about their future, while managers lack the skills and confidence to inspire the downhearted. Responsibility for performance is placed either on HR or line managers — not individuals. Sometimes in a desire to manage the system, talent leaders forget the individual has to take some responsibility. Sure, the manager has a big part to play, but ultimately an individual has to be accountable for his or her performance and future career

5 reasons why performance management fails? shortly
1. Waiting For The Performance Appraisal To Give Feedback
2. Overemphasizing Recent Performances
3. Being Too Positive Or Negative
4: Being Critical Without Being Constructive
5: Talking Not Listening
Unrealistic targets that cannot be achieved
No agreement/commitment to the targets
No support (enablement/training/tools) given to achieve targets
No incentive in achieving targets
No regular measure/review of progress
lack of skilled leaders that can motivate,stimulate the needs of employees,extend to the employee the goals of the company and how they relate to the employee's performance,self contribution importance and how it would affect the end result or success of the company.
if an employee doesn't or can't understand how his contribution affects the end results,measuring performance becomes heartless and useless
1. Lack of standard set.
2. Unrealistic standard.
3. Poor measure performance.
4. Negative communication.
5. Failure to apply evaluation data.
Performance management may fail to achieve its objectives for one or of the following reasons:
1- Objectives and/or targets are not attainable.
2- There is communication channels between the middle management and the senior management.
3- There is no motivation system to rewards those who achieved their targets.
4- Targets are easy to achieve, targets are not challengable.
5- Management support dose not exist.
Simple :Performance management will alwayz need individual effort as we all know that team work will push the level up ...
Lack of connection between the company policy and the employees.
Over reliance on most recent appraisals of employees.
Being unnecessarily judgmental on an employee without reference to his overall performance.
Setting of either unrealistic goals or incapable teams.
Absence of the right working environment.
- Failure in defining what to measure and what not to measure. Measure the business's success factors driven from the organzation's strategy.
- Poor change menegement. People peceive performance management as a threat. A proper change management plan can handle this issue by undestanding the people resentment.
- Stetting up complex and time consuming processes to measure performance. This prohibits effective implementation.
- Failure to report performance measures to the right people at the right times in the right formats which could be directly used for decision making.
- Treating performance management a s a periodic task. Effective performance management requires integrating it in the daily business processes.
- Lack of senior management support.
