How to create a collaborative system for keeping track of how work is going

This RadHR guide critiques mainstream hierarchical supervision and review systems and sets out practical alternatives suited to co-operative and care-centred organisations. It covers peer supervision as a tool for collective accountability, how to run fair and transparent probationary periods, whether annual reviews are necessary and what could replace them, and the role of giving and receiving feedback in building a supportive culture. It is particularly useful for small charities and community organisations looking to move away from punitive or top-down performance management structures.
