http://1-million-dollar-blog.com/average-monthly-salary-for-72-countries-in-the-world/ | Average Monthly Salary for 72 Countries in the World 17th April , 2012 Statistics 32 comments Recently , United Nations ’ International Labour Organization ( ILO ) published the average monthly salary or wage for the whole world & the average for 72 countries . For the whole world , the average is USD1 , 480 per month . The figures are published for the first time . It ’ s a rough figure based on data from 72 countries , omitting some of the world ’ s poorest nations . In addition , all figures are adjusted to reflect variations in the cost of living from one country to another . To make comparisons in living standards across countries , economists use specially adjusted exchange rates . The figures in this calculation are given in Purchasing Power Parity ( PPP ) dollars . One PPP dollar is equal to 1 US dollar spent in the US . But a US dollar goes further in some countries than in others . The limitations of the data are . The data ( for 2009 ) covers 72 countries , and misses out some big ones , Nigeria , for example . Only wage earners are counted – not the self - employed or people on benefits . In some countries , the data is incomplete – in South Africa , for example ; it leaves out public sector workers and agricultural workers , while in Uganda , it covers only the manufacturing sector . The table below is the rank of average monthly salary or wage in the world . Malaysia was at number 45 out of 72 countries with average monthly salary of USD961 per month . Rank Country Average Wage ( USD ) 1 Luxembourg 4,089 2 Norway 3,678 3 Austria 3,437 4 United States 3,263 5 United Kingdom 3,065 6 Belgium 3,035 7 Sweden 3,023 8 Ireland 2,997 9 Finland 2,925 10 Korea ( Republic of ) 2,903 11 France 2,886 12 Canada 2,724 13 Germany 2,720 14 Singapore 2,616 15 Australia 2,610 16 Cyprus 2,605 17 Japan 2,522 18 Italy 2,445 19 Iceland 2,431 20 Spain 2,352 21 Greece 2,300 22 New Zealand 2,283 23 South Africa 1,838 24 Malta 1,808 25 Israel 1,804 26 Czech Republic 1,786 27 Croatia 1,756 28 Turkey 1,731 29 Qatar 1,690 30 Hong Kong ( China ) 1,545 31 Poland 1,536 32 Slovakia 1,385 33 Hungary 1,374 34 Macedonia 1,345 35 Bosnia & Herzegovina 1,338 36 Estonia 1,267 37 Russian Federation 1,215 38 Jamaica 1,135 39 Lithuania 1,109 40 Argentina 1,108 41 Latvia 1,098 42 Serbia 1,058 43 Chile 1,021 44 Botswana 996 45 Malaysia 961 46 Belarus 959 47 Romania 954 48 Bahrain 917 49 Panama 831 50 Mauritius 783 51 Brazil 778 52 Macau ( China ) 758 53 Kazakhstan 753 54 Bulgaria 750 55 Colombia 692 56 Ukraine 686 57 China 656 58 Mexico 609 59 Georgia 603 60 Azerbaijan 596 61 Egypt 548 62 Thailand 489 63 Armenia 471 64 Dominican Republic 462 65 Moldova ( Republic of ) 438 66 Mongolia 415 67 Syrian Arab Republic 364 68 Kyrgyzstan Republic 336 69 India 295 70 Philippines 279 71 Pakistan 255 72 Tajikistan 227 Do you earn more or less than the world ’ s or Malaysia average salary / wage ? Employment Malaysia Previous post : 2011 Top 15 Largest Stock Brokers Trading in Bursa Malaysia Next post : The Prospect of Gold for Investment Said 25th March , 2013 , 2 : 31 am Oh ! ! This Article is full of mistakes , Huge ones in fact . In Egypt the average wage is far far lower than 548 usd / month .The same thing is for Hungary and I doubt also about many mentioned countries above . Reply 1mdb . com 25th March , 2013 , 2 : 35 pm Do you have fact to support your claim ? Reply Said 2nd August , 2013 , 1 : 17 pm Facts ! ? DO you live on the planet Earth 2013 ? .The averrage wage in Qatar that you list number 29 for example is 8000 EUR ( not USD ! ) , which no doubt surprises you . Is this an amateur articl ? student in first year economics ? 1mdb . com 2nd August , 2013 , 5 : 58 pm This data is base on research done by United Nations ’ International Labour Organization and this is base on 2009 data . You can say anything but without fact or extensive research , it is useless . Fares 2nd August , 2013 , 6 : 56 am totally agree . The numbers are wrong . Average salary in czech is no more than $ 1100 2nd August , 2013 , 6 : 02 pm How sure are you ? where is your fact or research report to support your claim . Filipot 4th September , 2013 , 8 : 18 pm http : / / www . praha . czso . cz / csu / 2009edicniplan . nsf / engkapitola / 0001 - 09 - 2009 - 1000 - > Czech statistical office for example claims the average gross wages to be 24 604 CZK which was according to the National Bank of Czech Rep . ( http : / / www . praha . czso . cz / csu / 2009edicniplan . nsf / engkapitola / 0001 - 09 - 2009 - 1000 ) ~ 1385 USD . . Here ’ s your research 4th September , 2013 , 8 : 47 pm I appreciate that you write with supporting research report but does it corrected to PPP ? Nadia 25th March , 2013 , 11 : 54 pm Why are so many countries whose wages are somewhere in the middle there not seen ? Are you only intending to show the biggest or most famous ? Portugal for instance has a medium wage around 770 euros so it should be there ! dan 31st March , 2013 , 11 : 35 am This may be right in nominal terms , but extremely misleading . If you adjust for PPP , it should be Singapore , Hong Kong , US , Luxembourg and the Swiss . I ’ ve known some Swedes and Norwegians , they said prices seem 2 - 3X cheaper here . If PPP is not meant to be in this graph , then fine , but there should be a disclaimer . A . 5th April , 2013 , 1 : 24 pm @ dan I understand Hong Kong ’ s PPP GDP per capita is quite impressive but this is “ wage PPP ” . Many people are confused with Wage PPP and GDP per capita PPP when they are so different one another . I think Singapore ’ s wage PPP should be higher than that but Hong Kong ’ s wage has been not very high in comparison with its GDP per capita level . High GDP per capita does not necessarily mean high wage . Wage is high when there is an ongoing inflation but Hong Kong recently experienced ongoing deflation Filip 6th August , 2013 , 7 : 38 am Slovakia – 1385 USD / month ? Hardly ever … Oficial average is about 900 – 950 USD / month , but most of people earn about 500 – 600 USD / month . Who has the average of about 700 EURO is lucky man . Of course , managers , politicians and CEOs earn thousands of dollars a month , but most of people are hand - workers with about 300 – 350 EUR / month . Most of people work in the car industry . ( source : Slovakian ) Karlen 20th August , 2013 , 6 : 26 am There is no way salaries in Georgia are higher than in Azerbaijan or Armenia , since the % of population living below 2 $ a day in Georgia is considerably higher than in Azerbaijan or Armenia ( according to World Bank ) sijoraj 23rd August , 2013 , 1 : 49 pm this is not true … average monthly salary of india is around 15000 ruppes . ( 300 dollars ) … ! ! ! ! ! ! ! . .its only 100 dollars . . Gaurav 3rd March , 2014 , 7 : 52 pm I agree with you . I India avg monthly income approx 5500 rs around 100 - 110 $ Claudia 8th October , 2013 , 8 : 28 am I totally agree with the first three places , but the 4th United States ? I believe that those 9 million Swedish live better that most of US citizens . After living in Scandinavia , placing Finland , Sweden and Denmark under US it is just non sense for me . BUT if it is an average , then that 1 % of billioners in the US “ helped ” to place this country in 4th place . Not fare knowing the non equal society and not to mention their huge economical bankruptcy . Mari 16th January , 2014 , 11 : 29 am I agree with your ” I believe that those 9 million Swedish live better that most of US citizens . ” . However , the data seems like after taxation and it quite makes sense to me . Scandinavians are with higher gross income than the U.S. but the U.S. citizens get more net earning . Hope this article help you to understand a little : http : / / en . wikipedia . org / wiki / List_of_countries_in_Europe_by_monthly_average_wage Gg 8th October , 2013 , 9 : 45 pm Lithuania , it is 3 times less . It is nonsense your article . aras 28th April , 2014 , 2 : 32 am minimum wage is 3 times lower , but this is about average wage and average wage in Lithuania is just about it . Goran colic 25th December , 2013 , 5 : 45 am This is totaly made up data . I live in Croatia , and i am a economist by proffesion . It has never been an average pay 1756 dollars … Please dont post totaly made up data Use wikipedia which is much better http : / / en . wikipedia . org / wiki / List_of_countries_in_Europe_by_monthly_average_wage Jass 7th April , 2014 , 4 : 10 am This is a Joke a big one … … … … … . . salery in Slovakia is for worker whom work on post office about 400 EURO soooooooooo this is big Joke ionut . m 22nd April , 2014 , 6 : 45 pm Romania ’ s average salary is like $ 350 + Roman 21st June , 2014 , 4 : 29 pm Maybe in cities like Bucharest and Timisoara , but as for the rest of the country it is more like $ 250 / month . Martin 26th April , 2014 , 7 : 19 am Are you kidding me ? Average salary in the Czech Republic is around 600 dollars ! ! ! Not 1700 ! ! I think that 1000 dollars per month is dream of 70 % Czech population and believe it or not , some people earn only around 500 dollars and they must live with it for another one month ( living , food , transportation etc . ) Source : I am native Czech / 58 years ! ! Ali 20th July , 2014 , 10 : 49 am Something is wrong with the figures . The average in Turkey should be 1000 usd . Malaysia and Turkey should be nearly the same . Tamara 2nd September , 2014 , 9 : 07 pm Average wage is a little complicated thing , because there can be 10 people with 100 dolar monthly wage , and only one who gets 10000 dollar per month , in this case average wage is 1000 dollar . Maybe in your country are people who get more wage than you know . : / / / / / / / There is one problem so is not the same as . Kadir 11th November , 2014 , 5 : 46 am I think the average Turkish salary somewhere a little lower than the research . Maybe around 1350 USD . . It is just an opinion without any supporting research … louise 25th January , 2015 , 3 : 47 am Your figures are totally off the wall , i ’ m a British expat and i can tell you now that currently , and having been like this since we entered the euro and even before the average wage , it has never been what your suggesting . The average wage is 800 euro per month ‘ roughly $ 900 per month , the amount your suggesting would amount to say 20 % of the working population of Cyprus . You really need to make sure your facts are correct , also i can state there are a lot of 25th January , 2015 , 7 : 08 am Can you read it properly ? In the first paragraph , I clearly state that the data were coming from United Nations ’ International Labour Organization ( ILO ) , a very credible organization . Further down , I state that the data was from year 2009 with PPP adjustment . Are you sure your data is correct ? Where you get your data ? Which year ? Any PPP adjustment ? Don Diego 1st May , 2015 , 6 : 15 am You must understand PPP conversion . this is an approximate explanation but a better one can be found online . Countries with very low salaries sometimes have very low costs of services and products , so living is less expensive . This means that their PPP will adjust up their actual wages based on purchasing power in their location to SEEM like they make more money . This is because 1,000 USD in USA will purchase 1,000 worth of goods ( on average ) . However , 1,000 USD in Turkey may purchase $ 1,500 or $ 2,000 + worth Paulo Adriano 7th July , 2015 , 6 : 50 am The medium salary in Brazil , by up , is around US $ 654 T - bone 27th July , 2016 , 11 : 46 pm I think that all of these people complaining that the chart is incorrect do not understand what “ average ” means . There are a LOT of people in these countries that make MILLIONS of dollars and when you take the “ AVERAGE ” them AND the folks making “ 2 dollars a day ” ( or whatever the example may be ) , You get the average number you see listed . | [

makers during the Cult Wars of the early New Age The prisoners incarcerated in this heavily fortified installation were simply left behind to fend for themselves Showing a degree of ingenuity born of desperation they salvaged an abandoned Phaedran vessel and embarked upon a career as searoving pirates Soon thereafter GaoDin was declared an independent city state and the Rogue City of Gao was made its capital Since that time the sea rogues of Gao have prospered and their small settlement has become a haven for The formal penal colony of Gao has grown into a city of sorts its old fortifications expanded upon and modified for purposes of defense Gao buildings are made of stone brick driftwood or anything thats available Architectural styles reflect the preferences of dozens of races and ethnic groups The citys current population comprised mostly of thieves outcasts and freed slaves is a remarkable admixture of racial and cultural types Rivals and even deadly enemies under normal circumstances the inhabitants of the Rogue City generally coexist with a minimum of difficulty on GaoDin In popular folklore the Gao are perceived by many Talislantans as glamorous adventurers a perception that the Gao work hard to encourage Crude crass or abusive behavior is not tolerated among the Gao who value good manners Though the sea rogues swashbuckling antics and charming manners set

http://1966travco270.blogspot.com/ | 1966 Travco 270 & 1967 Dodge Mahaul 270 Saturday , March 1 , 2014 The mechanical fuel pump on my Travco ' s Kohler generator went out and neither a mechanical replacement ( A - 241196 ) nor a repair kit ( 241197 ) is available . Electric replacements are available , but I want to keep it close to “ stock . ” I bought a used one on ebay , but the valves in it were bad . So I was in search for replacement parts and found that Airtex 572 ( fits a 1966 Jeep C5 I4 ) has the parts needed to rebuild the innards of the pump . The On the new 572 pump , remove the spring between the outer arm and body . Remove the 6 screws securing the two halves , holding the two halves together by hand until the last screw is removed . Set the top half aside . Using a hammer and punch , drive - out the pin in the base enough to remove outer arm , but you may leave it in one side of the body . The outer arm should fall out , depress the diaphragm and pull the inner arm out with pliers . Remove the diaphragm , spring and oil seal ( with washer ) and set aside . On the A - 241196 , remove the spring between the outer arm and body , note the orientation of the top to the base for later , remove the 6 screws securing the two halves , holding the two halves together by hand until the last screw is removed . Put the old top in old parts bin or metal recycling bin . Using a hammer and punch , drive - out the pin in the base enough to remove the outer arm , but you may leave it in one side of the body . The outer arm Using the A - 241196 base ( only because it has a priming lever , otherwise use the 572 base ) , I noticed the holes in the diaphragm did not line - up , so I used the A - 241196 base as a template to drill new holes . Then insert the donor oil seal , washer & spring , placing diaphragm through with slot in shaft toward the opening for the arm . Depress the diaphragm and using pliers place the small arm in the slot in the diaphragm shaft ( hook away from diaphragm ) . Airtex 572 Kohler A - 241196 Remove inner arm Donor Parts A - 241196 parts Donor parts stack - up on A - 241196 base Inner arm reinserted Rebuilt Pump with new clear view fuel filter installed Posted by 1966 Travco 270 at 6 : 35 PM 1 comment : Labels : Kohler 241197 Kohler A - 241196 L - 600 Mechanical fuel pump rebuild Travco June Camping = Hot and Buggy I started this post last June and never finished it . . . So I am posting it now . The other day I took a day off from working at my job , and traded it for a day of working on the Travco . On the previous camping trip it had fuel pump issues , so I wanted to look into eliminating those issues . After discovering that the electric fuel pump decided it did n ' t want to pump any more , I replaced it . While under the rig I happened to glance at the universal joint closest to the rear axle . It was then I discovered that one pair of bearing cups had . . . .Hmm yeah , and it was hot and buggy as well . Posted by 1966 Travco 270 at 5 : 12 PM No comments : Labels : Travco U joint Monday , April 22 , 2013 Camping Prep and Update Previously I read on the Travco list and now finally verified ( for myself ) that wheel lugs on the left side of the vehicle have left - handed threads . All of my 6 - lug rims have alternating recesses and upsets on the lug holes with locating holes for the pin sticking out of the rear hubs . The bottom lug is upset , the top right is recessed . These wheels are lug centered , not hub centered . Some people may not like the split - ring rims , but I like the fact that I I added an additional temperature gauge , one with values , a volt meter to compliment the amp meter , and in the center a fuel pressure gauge . I have an electric fuel pump and have realized I need one with more flow . Here is one of the SeaSense # 50023755 LED dome lights that I have installed in the front cabin , but still need to replace the units in the rear . The switch has three positions , to the left is RED LEDs ( 0.08A ) , center is OFF , to the right is WHITE LEDs ( 0.16A ) . They use are sold at boating stores or online . Compare this to an # 1156 bulb that is 2.1A , so using 7.6 % of the power . They are a different color and not as bright , Another addition are two new 6V Trojan T - 105 batteries in series for my auxiliary battery bank ( replacing two 12V batteries in parallel , which was a no - no ) . I switch this bank in with a perko switch to the chassis as needed . I can also connect the generator battery to the chassis if it needs a boost . 1 : 53 PM 3 comments : Thursday , October 13 , 2011 Furnace repair and beds Last time we had the Travco out in cold weather , the furnace fan was not starting on its own and required a helping hand to get it spinning . Not good at night while you are sleeping , but luckily at the time we had shore power and electric heaters on board . Anyway , I took the blower until out , it has a universal motor in it . It works on either AC or DC , so regardless which way you supply power it always turns in the correct direction . Unless of course the brushes are 5 : 31 PM 3 comments : Furnace Brushes Sunday , September 4 , 2011 Storage for Genny It has always been my procedure to run an engine ' s carb bowl out of fuel if possible , before storing for a period of time . Motorcycles , lawnmowers , even the 440 on the Travco . ( I turn the electric fuel pump off an wait the minute or two for it to die ) I was going to put a shut - off valve on the Kohler to do so , until I realized I could run the genny , pull and hold - up the priming lever on the fuel pump until it died from fuel starvation . I thought I would share this with those fellow Kohler L600 / L654 owners . Do n ' t forget to return the lever to the normal lowered position when done . 4 : 16 PM No comments : Fuel Shut - off Storage Saturday , July 2 , 2011 ' 66 Travco ( California ) & ' 67 Travco AC Electrical Wiring I have posted some pictures here of how our two Travcos have input power connected to them . Both Travcos have Kohler 6 . 5C63 6.5KW water - cooled generators . The ' 67 has a 240VAC 4 pin receptacle on the genny and the Travco has a 4 pin plug to insert into it . The ' 67 plugged into the Kohler genny . The worse for wear power cord receptacle to plug the ' 67 RV into " park " power . The other end of the cord should be a standard 30 amp 3 pin RV style plug . Not shown is that the two 120VAC legs of the receptacle are shunted together . The ' 66 built for California has a lockable compartment on the side opposite the generator to access the power connections . The 3 pin twist - lock plug from the generator ( 240VAC ) and the power input receptacle in the background on the ' 66 . ( 120V leg , 120V leg , neutral , case is ground ) The ' 66 with a 30 amp park power cord inserted . Not shown is that the two 120V legs are shunted together inside the plug . ( Generator output cord laying beside it ) The end of the 50 amp cord for the ' 66 that I made . This end matches 50 amp park service . Ideally , the 3 pin twist - lock on the ' 66 should be replaced with a proper 4 pin twist - lock that has separate neutral and ground . Then you could use the 4 wire , 4 pin 50 amp cord to connect to a 50 amp park power outlet . If wired like the ' 67 it would have a 4 pin receptacle to match the RV ' s plug . 5 : 09 AM 240VAC 50 amp Electrical Saturday , November 13 , 2010 Winterizing Well , the time finally came to winterize my Travco . It is fairly simple to do so . . . For the curious , read on . I remove the city water inlet plug to allow the water to drain from it to the check - valve , replace cap later . My fresh water tank does not have a drain , so I have to pump it out , I should probably add a drain to it . After it is empty , I open the drain on the water heater and open all the faucets . After that is complete , I switch the valves on the water heater to bypass , switch the intake valve to the jug - inlet , and attach the Older Posts Home Subscribe to : Posts ( Atom ) | [

Long before there were refrigerators and freezers , our fishing ancestors learned to use a combination of salt and smoke to keep fish from spoiling . Today , smoking fish is no longer necessary , but it remains a popular method of preparation to add flavor to fish such as salmon , tuna , trout , sturgeon and catfish . Tip : Three Easy Smoke Fish Recipes ( quick link ) Large batches of fish can be smoked , refrigerated and used in a variety of tasty recipes . photo from Food Network In pre - refrigeration days , smoked fish were heavily cured and smoked fairly dry for storage at room temperature or in a cellar . Today ' s cures are lighter , so most forms of fish smoked at home need to be refrigerated until use . You can freeze smoked fish for even longer storage . Today ' s cook has a variety of smokers from which to choose , and all can be used to prepare excellent smoked fish . Many cooks prefer inexpensive , vertical charcoal smokers such as RedHead Charcoal Water Smoker . These utilize a water pan inside for moist cooking . Smokers that run on propane are popular for use in fishing camps and at home . The Masterbuilt Sportsman Elite 40 " Extra Wide Two - Door Propane Smoker , for example , has a push - button ignition and features 2,000 - square - inches of cooking space , adjustable gas controls and extra large viewing window in the smoker door .

If you plan to cook for a crowd , and want to invest in a smoker that will last a lifetime , you also may want to consider some of the big fabricated - steel smokers on wheels such as those available from Horizon smokers found at Bass Pro Shops .

http://1to1coachingschool.com/Performance_Coaching_and_Management.htm | Managers are now expected to coach workers every day Nearly nine out 10 firms expect their managers and supervisors to deliver performance coaching as part of their day - to - day work , according to a new survey by the Institute of Personnel and Development . The vast majority of employers believe coaching can deliver tangible benefits to both individuals and organizations , said the Institute . The majority of employers planned to increase the use of coaching over the next few years but not necessarily update the training of their ' Managers / Leaders as Coach ' , it added . The research also found that performance coaching provided by a manager or supervisor is becoming increasingly popular as the value of sustainable on the job learning is recognized in the workplace . However , research also suggests that if coaching is to deliver these Because organizations are not investing enough in helping their managers / leaders develop cutting - edge performance coaching skills , there are some significant bottom - line consequences . In a recent large industry - wide study it was found that most managers reported that they were confident in their ability to coach . However , the study showed that the managers ’ / leaders ’ skills levels as coaches were typically poor and that as a consequence they were not nearly as effective in their coaching as they believe themselves to be . Often times , they believed that coaching consisted of just providing 1 - to - 1 instructional feedback to their staff members on what to do in a given situation to perform better . However , a well - trained Manager / Leader as Coach also supports their staff by using advanced developmental and learning tools and providing them with personalized self - coaching strategies to achieve sustainable levels of performance . Most Managers / Leaders / Supervisors / Team Leaders believe they are providing performance oriented coaching by simply providing positional technical skills training and feedback Many recent studies have shown that “ Technical Skills ” ( our natural skills and learnt skills through training and experience ) only represent at best 20 % of the input into our performance . The remaining 80 % which affects our performance comes from our " Personal Skills " ( those crucial other elements such as our thinking and our behavioral aspects - such as : Ability to choose or make a decision , Assertiveness , Authenticity , Commitment to grow , Concentration , Emotional stability , Enthusiasm , Judgment , Energy level , Resourcefulness , Honesty , Integrity Peak performance coaching tools and techniques . To create lasting performance change it is necessary to first understand the positive and negative influence that a person ' s Personal Skills has on the execution of their Technical Skills . Only when we fully understand a person ' s behavioral patterns and create positive self - managing coaching strategies can we assist a person to create lasting performance change . Performance Coaching is frequently confused with other types of coaching , such as Executive Coaching or Leadership Coaching . Performance Coaching is a form of Directive Coaching versus Executive Coaching or Leadership Coaching which is a form of Non - Directive Coaching . Broadly speaking , coaching methodologies are either directive or non - directive in approach . Directive Coaching involves the busy Manager who sometimes acts as a Coach : telling , instructing , giving advice , offering guidance , giving feedback , making suggestions etc . Non - Directive Coaching involves helping someone to solve their own problems . The key to the success of non - directive coaching is that the responsibility for deciding and taking The directive style of coaching has been adopted as the model for coaching for performance , such as ; helping provide people with direction , guiding them in how to master new skills , procedures , tasks and meet performance goals etc . Performance C oaching methods have changed little in 10 years , perhaps even 20 years . The traditional performance coaching formula has many limitations . For example the traditional approach focuses on a single - issue problem and assumes all individuals can work through it for themselves in a short time . The traditional approach is also passive . The traditional " coach " does n ' t have time nor the techniques to help a person understand why they may be stuck with an unhelpful mental framework or ' unproductive behavior ' . Many poor performing individuals and teams who seem stuck never really change until the " coach " can assist them to think When managers are trained using outdated , traditional coach - education manuals , the results are greater myths and confusion rather than improved clarity of knowledge . If something " works " at least once in an important setting , it is likely to be repeated as a " valuable " coaching procedure , despite completely ignoring all the times it may not work . It also follows that when an employee achieves some level of performance success , the manager feels justified in his / her style of coaching . However , if an individual does not reach their set goals , there can be a blame - game around what they and the manager did and did not do to cause the unsatisfactory result . Coaches need to understand the value in staying ahead of the rapidly evolving process of performance coaching . The only way to improve coaching knowledge is to change the many unfounded beliefs into valid ordered knowledge , that is , coaching best - practice processes and standards . The introduction of orderliness , if it is accepted , also reduces error . Organizational , team and individual performance results will remain disordered and inconsistent unless a standardized coaching approach and the same coaching methodologies are adopted by all managers with their employees . It is imperative that coaching best - practices and evidence - based principles are introduced to the coach ' s knowledge base . A failure to keep abreast of an ever expanding knowledge base of performance coaching best - practices will halt any progress in personal achievements and performance outcomes . Some Definitions : Performance can be seen as the Actual Results vs Desired Results . Any discrepancy , where Actual is less than Desired , could constitute the performance improvement zone . Performance planning occurs when goals and objectives are established . Performance Evaluations provide a comparison of actual on - the - job performance to established performance measurement standards . As a best practice , the supervisor and the employee regularly discuss expectations , performance standards and objectives , set expectations , gather data , and provide on going feedback to employees to assist them in utilizing their skills , expertise and ideas to produce results . To provide this direction , Performance Records and a Coaching Log are guides that can be used by supervisors , in addition to their own best practices , to gather data to provide ongoing feedback to Performance measurement standards are communicated to employees with expectations for each position . Performance measurement is the process of assessing progress toward achieving predetermined goals , while performance management is building on that process adding the relevant communication and action on the progress achieved against these predetermined goals . To provide this direction , managers / supervisors communicate to employees what is expected of them , define satisfactory performance for those expectations , and then monitor and evaluate the performance on an on going basis . Performance appraisal occurs when individual performance is formally documented and feedback is delivered Performance coaching occurs when a manager / supervisor ( using the Indirect Coaching Model ) intervenes and provides feedback for the purpose of improving performance ( see below for further details ) Performance improvement is any effort targeted at closing the gap between Actual Results and Desired Results . Performance Management is an ongoing dialogue between the manager / supervisor and employee that links expectations , ongoing feedback and coaching , performance evaluations , development planning , and follow - up . Performance management should be both Strategic ( about broader issues and longer - term goals ) and Integrated ( linking various aspects of the business , people management and individuals and teams ) . It should provide the means to link individual and team performance with organisational effectiveness and the organisation ' s mission . Performance Coaching Feedback is a process by which the coach provides effective and constructive feedback on the coachee ' s performance of learned skills . Effective performance is reinforced and less - than - desirable performance is worked on to improve . Feedback should be information that highlights strengths , positive behavior and a means for skills critiquing , encouragement of new learning and the explanation of the relationship between what is expected and what has been accomplished after the work is performed or an action is taken . Feedback can take many forms ; it can be informal or formal . | [
