2025 KOTRA Dhaka Individual KPI: Staff-Level Performance Targets and Evaluation System

2025 KOTRA Dhaka Individual KPI Overview

Differentiated targets by domain are set for 8 staff members (3 Korean + 5 local), applying a 70% quantitative + 30% qualitative evaluation with 5-tier grades (S–D). Performance is managed through quarterly reviews, with incentives including Korea training and performance bonuses (S grade: 150%) for top performers.

Quarterly KPI Targets

Annual KPIs are distributed quarterly to monitor progress. Q2 (April–June) hosts DITF (Dhaka International Trade Fair), concentrating export consultations and B2B matching. Q1 and Q3 focus on market research and report publication, while Q4 focuses on year-end settlement and next-year planning. Quarterly achievement rates are automatically compiled in WMS, enabling real-time monitoring by the director and staff.

Evaluation Process

01
Quarterly Self-Assessment
Each staff member writes a self-assessment based on WMS data at the end of each quarter. Quantitative indicators (task counts, deadline compliance rates, performance amounts) are automatically compiled by the system, while qualitative evaluation is written in a self-descriptive format. Self-assessments include performance examples, improvement areas, and plans for the next quarter.
02
Director Interview and Final Rating
After reviewing self-assessments, the director conducts individual interviews. The interview confirms performance, provides feedback, and finalizes the final grade (S, A, B, C, D). Korean staff apply headquarters HR standards, while local staff apply local evaluation criteria.
03
Performance Bonus and Incentives
Performance bonuses are paid differentially by grade: S grade 150%, A grade 120%, B grade 100%, C grade 80%, D grade no bonus. Local staff apply a separate performance bonus framework based on local salary standards, and excellent performers at A grade or above are given Korea training opportunities.
04
Competency Development Planning
Individual Development Plans (IDP) are established for each staff member based on evaluation results. Competency gaps are supplemented through training and mentoring, while strength areas are deepened through specialization. Korean language and English ability improvement for local staff, and market research methodology training are systematically supported.
