The performance and potential management system in our company consists of processes that aim to identify and develop employee performance, leadership behaviors, competencies and potential.
We implement the performance and potential management system GLB (Great Leadership Behavior), for our office teams, which is used globally at all Daimler Truck AG locations.
GLB starts with setting goals at the beginning of the year, followed by half-year evaluations, measurement of the achievement of the goals for the previous period at the end of the year, and performance and potential evaluation within the framework of our 12 global leadership behaviors. The most important step of the process is the manager-employee meetings. In these meetings, the career development plan is determined and how the current development steps can be implemented are discussed, and the outputs are recorded on the system. The results of the entire process provide input to salary management, career and back-up plans.
