Performance management, as well as a reward system in place, are core to the organizational success. Both are crucial to retaining valuable talent, a cornerstone of any organization. However, as you will understand throughout the module, both of those functions are heavily affected by cultural differences and a performance or reward system that works in one country might not necessarily work in the other country.
Therefore, you are tasked to select a country that you are familiar with, it can be a country where you reside or originate from, and discuss the most important features that a both, a reward and a performance system should consider. Please illustrate your points by presenting examples of organizational practice in a selected country and recommend how performance management and rewards should look like.
Your initial contribution to the Discussion Forum should be between 300-500 words and should draw on academic literature and industry knowledge. Throughout the period of 2 weeks you should post a minimum of 5 and a maximum of 10 times within the discussion forum sharing organizational practices and drawing on academic literature.
