performance-management skillA

performance-management is agent-read markdown (skill) from cbrock84/headcount: Runs performance systems that change behavior — expectations, feedback, review cycles, calibration, and handling underperformance. Use this to design or fix a review process, run calibration, write or coach on feedback, address sustained underperformance, or work out why reviews consume weeks and change nothing..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# Performance management

Most review systems are an expensive annual ritual that surprises nobody and improves nothing. The
work happens in the ordinary week; the cycle should record it, not discover it.

**Performance documentation carries legal weight, particularly around termination, discrimination and
accommodation. Employment law varies by jurisdiction — involve qualified counsel before acting on
sustained underperformance.**

## Expectations before assessment

Nobody can be fairly assessed against a standard they were not given. Expectations need to be
specific to the level, written down, and shared before the period rather than produced during review
as justification.

Separate two axes deliberately, because conflating them is the most common structural flaw:

- **Outcomes** — what was delivered, which is partly situational.
- **Behaviors** — how it was done, which is more within the person's control.

Someone who delivered through a collapsing market and someone who delivered by scorching the earth
around them are different cases. A single blended rating hides both.

## Feedback in the week, not the quarter
