This title offers a critical review of performance management from multiple perspectives, with messages for research and practice. It provides authoritative overviews of current knowledge on performance management in a wide range of fields and sectors. It engages with contemporary debates around stakeholders, accountability, evidence-based practice and research relevance. It includes contributions from internationally renowned scholars. Many authors draw on practical experience as managers in the private and public sectors.It takes a new look at performance management that goes beyond discipline approaches and explores how we might integrate thinking through inter-disciplinary research, informed by management practice. This impartial review traces the evolution of how performance is understood and comes from experts of over a dozen disciplines and sectors.
