Performance Management in Public Sector- Performance Management Satisfaction

Abstract

In any organization, there is constant pressure to achieve more productivity or reach higher performance levels and meet the set target. The scientist’s effort has to be commensurate with the strategy and mission of the organisation. This requires regular feedback from the scientists as well as the organisation. Feedback surveys at regular intervals will lead to improved performance. The work described in the paper attempts to explore the factors affecting the motivation of scientists in their work situations and also the factors affecting the overall satisfaction of the scientists with their work groups. The feedback from the survey resulted in improvements to infrastructure, besides improving the working environment with a participative spirit. This study explores the multitude of variables affecting scientists' motivation in their work environments as well as the elements impacting their general job satisfaction in teams. By conducting periodic feedback surveys, significant insights were obtained, resulting in concrete improvements to the infrastructure and the development of a more favourable work environment marked by a collaborative and participatory spirit. This early study provides a basic framework for future research and interventions aimed at maximizing organizational effectiveness and employee well-being by clarifying the intricacies of performance management satisfaction in the public sector.
