How to do Effective Performance Appraisals - A training movie




My comments on the above video
  1. I do not agree that the purpose or objective of a performance appraisal interview was restricted for the purpose of learning and development of the employee.  It should include compensation and reward plans.
  2. A performance review definitely need to examine the past where learning on mistakes and successes could take place.  Looking strictly forward is not appraisals.  It lacks accountability.
  3. Good performance is measured through positive KPI rate improvement on a set of pre-agreed KPIs.
  4. Discussion on whether the key result areas was properly identified in the last session.
  5. Whether the right best practice was implemented or problems in its' implementation.
  6. The causes of poor performance through gap analysis were not discussed?
