Abstract : To improve staff performance management, this article asses the South African Police Service's efforts to create a culture of high performance. The paper, which was split into two parts, concentrated on several topics, evaluation of the correct use of the SAPS’s crime statistics in monitoring and resolving crime, the quality and richness of information in crime reports, the level of crime statistics analysis in crime reports, end users’ processing of crime statistics to generate predictions and intelligence, the correlation of crime- related information issued by these two organisations and the interpretation of this information. The theoretical framework, police service capacity building, police performance, the importance of a high- performance culture, the benefits of a high-performance culture, the five steps to a high-performance culture, key characteristics of a high-performance culture, the development of a high-performance company culture, the use of performance management strategies, and practical implications for high-performance organizations were all discussed in the send section. An organization can produce great results and a high level of growth by implementing a set of values, attitudes, and behaviors called a high-performance culture. Effective performance procedures are established in high- performance cultures and given top priority at all levels of the business, resulting in a work environment that is most supportive of development. It is crucial to remember that creating a high-performance culture involves more than just getting great outcomes right away. It also involves developing a long-lasting culture that encourages ongoing improvement and innovation. Only when organizations are competent in carrying out each essential step of the performance management process successfully can effective performance be carried out. Along with consistently setting goals and planning work, they also track progress toward those goals, provide feedback to workers, help them acquire the skills necessary to accomplish those goals and reward positive behavior and outcomes.

Keywords : Police Management; Performance Management; Policing, Police Reform, Public Administration, Capacity Building.
