- Description
- The study was set out to examine the implementation of Performance Management System at Lilongwe Technical College in Malawi. The reason for pursuing the study is to contribute to the improvement and strengthening of the implementation of the Performance Management System which is already in place at the college. The objectives of the study were to assess the attitudes and perceptions of employers regarding the implementation of the PMS at Lilongwe Technical College; to establish the challenges inhibiting successful implementation; and to provide possible mechanisms to improve the situation. The research methodology used was a qualitative research approach, based on in-depth interviews, observation and secondary resources that is reviewing the necessary information available in connection with the topic. After analyzing the relevant information, it became apparent that the performance management system is lacking understanding of the policy, procedures and processes, senior management does not seem to be committed to the successful implementation of the PMS and also lack of motivation and advocacy from top management. The researcher has given recommendations in chapter 5 so that it would contribute to more efficient and effective implementation of the Performance Management System at Lilongwe Technical College.
