Sprint Overview
Would you like to improve the efficiency or effectiveness of your Performance Management program? Is your city contemplating a revival of a Performance Management or “Stat” program that went away, and you don’t know how to get started? Does analysis from your Performance Management efforts never seem to make its way into key decisions like budget allocations and policy? If you answered yes to any of these questions, this Sprint is especially designed for you!
What will I do in this Sprint?
In this Sprint, participants will assess the current state of their Performance Management program, gather stakeholder feedback on Performance Management efforts, learn methods to restart or modify Performance Management for sustainability and understand ways to integrate performance analysis into other systems for decision-making. This Sprint will also promote peer discussion on emerging issues in local government data like AI and give participants opportunities to share their experiences as the field of Performance Management continues to evolve.
At the end of the Sprint, participants will have:
- A retrospective of different elements of their performance management program (PA2.1, 2.2 and 2.3)
- A plan for gathering stakeholder feedback on their performance management efforts (PA2 and PA5)
- A map of the connectivity between their performance management program and other critical decision-making systems (PA5.1)
- A prioritized list of next steps for their PM program (PA2)
This course will put you on the path to achieving the following WWC Criteria:
PA2: Implementing Performance Management: Your local government holds performance management meetings during which it reviews data and data analysis, discusses insights, and makes decisions about its strategic goals at least quarterly.
-
PA2.1: Your local government has a set schedule for performance management meetings.
-
PA2.2: Senior leadership regularly attends performance management meetings.
-
PA2.3: Your local government has a designated process for conducting and reviewing analysis (i.e. descriptive analysis, diagnostic analysis, geospatial analysis, or prescriptive analysis necessary for data-focused performance management meetings), preparation, and follow-up for each performance management meeting.
PA5: Using Analysis in Decisions: Your local government has a sustained, regular process for using analysis produced as part of your local government’s performance and/or analytics program to inform decisions about resource prioritization or allocation, hiring, and/or equitable service delivery for citywide strategic priorities.
- PA5.1: In the past year, your local government has used analysis produced as part of your local government’s performance and/or analytics program to inform at least three decisions related to improving services for residents or related to key citywide priorities.
