A system and method for improved matrix management of personnel planning
factors is provided. In modern organizations using matrix management, one
employee may be managed by several managers. Each employee has an
employee profile data area that is used to store planning data and actual
data corresponding to the employee. Planning data includes risk analysis
data, compensation data, and development planning data. Actual data
includes current compensation data and performance data. Managers' input
regarding a common employees performance and planning factors is
converted to a single performance evaluation and single set of planning
factors by weighting the evaluation and factors by a percentage
corresponding to each manager. Online collaboration between managers is
provided to discuss employee contributions and revise planning factors
and evaluations as needed. Revised data is displayed on each of the
manager's systems in response to the revisions.
