| dc.description.abstract | Human resources constitute the principle assets of an organization. Managers
have a great responsibility in promoting the optimum utilization of the
available human resources.
A manager's key responsibility within an organization is the conversion of
corporate strategy, customer requirements, shareholders needs and all other
strategic issues into achievable action plans for their team.
This process goes on right across and down the organization. It is the
movement from the rare field and atmosphere of strategy into the arena of
getting things done.
Performance management is a process which IS designed to Improve
organizational, team and individual performance. It is owned and driven by
line managers. Nevertheless, if we were to manage performance effectively,we
need to ensure that our various interventions are well coordinated and that
they are aligned with the organizations goals.
Employees feel special when their talents are discovered, nurtured and
developed. Managers therefore, need to consciously and consistently work to
transform talents of the employees into strengths which will in turn help build
a successful organization.
Each individual employee can make a significant contribution towards the
overall success of his or her organization. However, the fundamental dilemma
facing managers today is how to fairly and objectively manage their employees
performance and by so doing make optimum utilization of their talents and
enhance their contributions towards attainment of overall organization
objectives. This survey research was undsrtaken to establish employee
performance management practices in the Kenyan Judiciary with a specific
focus on court registry staff.
The results indicate that employee performance management practices are
applied in court registries.
The results of the performance management practices are used in making a
variety of human resource management interventions and employment
