Preface
Management training has gained rapid and tremendous importance over the past
some years, management was previously considered as an in born art or talent but in
todays fast developing world, this has been modified.
I undertook summer training program in GTL Limited, Lucknow, as an essential and
obligatory part of Post Graduate Diploma in Management of IIMT Professional
College and the project Performance Appraisal is to analyze the factors which
influence the employees performance. . The cause behind the failure of anorganization is many & multidimensional. Employees lack of motivation & moral
on job performance is one of the critical areas whichseem to be associated in theoverall problem. The work on this project was started to test the theoretical
knowledge in practical relevance and measure the performance of employees.
The summer training was s interesting, inspiring, satisfying, learning and
academically awarding.

Introduction to Appraisal
Appraisal is or should be an integral part of a system of managing, knowing how
well a manager plans, organizes, staffs, leads and controls is really the only way to
ensure that those occupying managerial position are actually managing effectively.
If a business, a Govt. agency, a charitable organization or even a university is to
reach its goals effectively and efficiently, ways of accurately measuring
management performance must be found and implemented.
Choosing the Performance Appraisal Criteria
The appraisal should measure performance accomplishing goals and plans as well as
performance as a manager. No one wants a person in a managerial role who appear
to do everything right as manager but who cannot turn in a good record of profit
making, marketing, controllership, or whatever the area of responsibility may be.

Performance Appraisal
Performance appraisal can be applied as an effective tool for managing and
developing individual performance.
The performance of an organization is the application of the some total of individual
learning among its member. Performance appraisal is the point at which corporate
objectives and translated into individual performance improvement goals and
measures.
Performance appraisal is the point at which we assess how effectively individuals
are meeting goals and needs of organization.
The important role of performance appraisal is supporting the business objective
of organization in becoming more widely understood and organization are
modifying their process to incorporate this wider understanding. Effective
performance appraisal should be recognized the legitimate desire of employees for
progress in their profession, one way to integrate organizational demand and
individual needs is through career management which an be part of Performance
appraisal. Appraising the performance of manager is itself an important and
challenging activity. Its important derives from the functions its serves.

A systematic and equitable appraisal system provides information crucial for
decision about selecting managers and assigning them to appropriate job for the
allocation of rewards both financial compensation and promotion and for the
development of management.
Performance Appraisal may be defined as a structured
formal interaction between a subordinate and supervisor,
that usually takes the form of a periodic interview (annual
or semi-annual), in which the work performance of
subordinate is examined and discussed, with a view to
identifying weaknesses and strengths as well as
opportunities for improvement and skills development
In many organizations but not all appraisal results are used, either directly or
indirectly, to help determine reward outcomes. That is, the appraisal results are used
to identify the better performing employees who should get the majority of available
merit pay increases, bonuses, and promotions.
By the same token, appraisal results are used to identify the poorer performers who
may require some form of counseling, or in extreme cases, demotion, dismissal, or
decreases in pay. (Organization needs to be aware of laws in their country that might
restrict their capacity to dismiss employees or decrease pay.)

Whether this is an appropriate use of performance appraisal the assignment and
justification of rewards and penalties is a very uncertain and contentious matter.
Logically there are two distinct problems: How to determine what the performance
actually was e.g. MEASUREMENT PROBLEM and how what the standard should
be, e.g. THE CRITERION PROBLEM. Each of these will be consider in turn.
Why Performance Appraisal?
Performance appraisal is a vehicle to: -
1. Validate and refine organizational actions (e.g. selection, training); and
2. Provide feedback to employees with an eye on improving future
performances.
Validating and refining organizational actions
Employee selection, training and about just any cultural or management practice
such as the introduction of a new pruning method or an incentive pay programmay
be evaluated in part of obtaining worker performance data.
The evaluation may provide ideas for refining established practices or instituting
young ones.
Data from performance appraisals can also help management to
Plan for long term staffing and worker development,
Raises the pay or give other rewards,

Set up an employee counseling session,
Institute discipline and discharge procedure.
Employee need for feedback
Although employees vary in their desires for improvement, generally people want to
know how well they are performing. People need positive feedback and validation
on a regular basis. Once an employee has been selected, few management actions
can have as positive an effect on worker performance as encouraging affirmation.
These are, in effect, good-will deposits, without which withdrawals cannot be made.
This does not mean you should gloss over areas needing improvement. When
presented in a constructive fashion, worker will often be grateful for information on
how to improve shortcomings. Such constructive feedback, however, can happen
only within the context of listening to and caring about the person. In general,
supervisors who tend to look for employees positive behavior and do so in a
sincere, non-manipulative way will have less difficulty giving suggestion.
Feedback may be qualitative or quantitative. Qualitative comments are descriptive,
such as telling the employee you appreciate the timeliness and quality of his work.
In contrast, quantitative feedback is based on numerical figure, such as percentage
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8
8/6/2019 Final GTL SIP Report
19/79
of successful project that have taken some researches feedback is particularly useful
when employees have an achievement objective.
Techniques of performance
Appraisal
Effective Performance Appraisal System content two basic systems operating in
congestion: An evaluation system and a feedback system.
The main aim of the evaluation system is to identify the performance gap(if any).
This gap is the shortfall that occurs when performance does not meet the standard
set by organization as acceptable.
The main aim of the feedback system is to inform the employee about the quality of
his or her performance. However, the information flow is not exclusively one way.
The appraisers also receive feedback from the employee about job problems, etc.
One of the best ways to appreciate the purpose of performance appraisal is to look at
it from the different viewpoints of the main stakeholders: the employee and the
organization.
Eichel and Bender (1984) grouped Appraisal techniques are into three methods as-
Comparative method,
Outcome oriented method and
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8
8/6/2019 Final GTL SIP Report
20/79
Absolute method.
(1) Comparative Method:The comparative method are relatively simple
and natural, but lack sensitivity and behavioral specify, Eichel and Bender define
Comparative method as those systems that compare people with one another,
including ranking, paired comparisons and forced distribution. This technique might
be adequate for compensation or promotion purpose (e.g. bonus for the top 10%) but
they are useless or giving precise feedback to improve performance. Notice that this
technique use people as the criteria of evolution.
(2) Outcome oriented Method:Eichel and Bender means that technique
that measures the outcomes of performance, these may be direct indices such as
profit for the unit, increased sales or reduced turn over or they may be standard of
goals for performance set by the supervisor, by the manager or through negotiation
or mutual agreement of both parties, in the case of MBO for instance, the goals are
set in advance and appraisal is done after six months or a year is in terms of those
goals.
On the other hand direct indices such as profitability or increased sales are not
unequivocal signs of managerial performance; for example, changes in the economy
or the business environment may confound these measured in terms of these specific
outcomes maybe overlooked and since the emphases in on the product of
performance, not the behavior used to achieve them information for coaching
feedback and for developmental training and career planning is missing.
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8
8/6/2019 Final GTL SIP Report
21/79
(3) Absolute Method:It is the last method of Eichel and Bender, where the
focus is on what the manager actually did, not on how he/she compared to others or
what product were. In this grouping, than behavior are the criteria of appraisal and
the criterion problem becomes the isolation of a set of behaviors that are to be
valued. This technique includes assessment by the supervisor on the basis of
observation and is written in a narratives essay.
(4) Critical Incident Technique: This technique developed by Flangan
(1954) information about behavior is collected according to a structural format
usually written, which is designed to document behavioral detail about episodes of
effective and ineffective performance, Behavior abstracted from these reports are
thought to critical to performance.
A major disadvantage of this technique it the large time investment necessary.

Purpose of Performance Appraisal
In general the appraisal systems serve a twofold purpose-
1. To improve the work performance of employees by helping them realize and
use their full potential in carrying out their firms mission.
2. To provide information to employees and managers foruse in making work
related decisions.
More specifically appraisals serve the following purposes.
a) Appraisals provide feedback to employees and help management in identify
the areas where development efforts are needed to bridge the gaps thereby
serving as vehiclesforpersonal and career development.
b) It helps management - spot individuals who have specific skills so that their
promotions/transfers are in line with organizational requirements.
c) Appraisal serves as a key input for administering a formal organization
reward and punishment system.
d) The performance system can be used as a criterion against which selection
devices and development programs are validated.
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8
8/6/2019 Final GTL SIP Report
23/79
The purpose of performance appraisal can be divided into two categories-
1. Administrative
2. Self- improvement
1. Administrative purpose-
From the organizational viewpoint, one of the most important reason for havinga system of performance appraisal is to establish and uphold the
Principle of accountability.
For decades it has been known to researchers that one of the chief causes of
organizational failure is non-alignment of responsibility and accountability. Non-
alignment occurs where employees are given responsibilities and duties, but are not
held accountable for the way in which those responsibilities and duties are
performed. What typically happens is that several individual or work units appear to
have overlapping roles.
To overlap allowsindeed actively encourages each individual or business unit to
pass the buck to the others. Ultimately, in the severely non-aligned system, no one
is accountable for anything. In this event, the principle of accountability breaks
down completely. Organizational failure is the only possible outcome.

Self Improvement -
Performance appraisal system brings out the deficiencies and shortcomings of
employees. The discussion between the superior and sub-ordinate conduct a spirit of
co-operation and mutual understanding. It gives a chance to employee to take
suitable step to improve their performance.
From the employee viewpoint, the purpose of performance appraisal is four fold.
(1) Tell me what you want me to
do.
(2) Tell me how well I have done
it.
(3) Help me improve my
performance.
(4) Reward me for doing well.

Process of Performance Appraisal
Establishing of performance appraisal.
Communicating standard to employees.
Evaluating actual Performance.
Comparing actual with standard.
Discussing appraisal with employees.
Taking corrective action
1. Establishing Performance standard : Performance standards,
which reflect the performance dimension from the basis of making appraisal.
Job analysis and Job description technique can be used to determine
performance dimension so that all critical elements of job could be
identified, deficiency and contamination can be avoided.
2. Communicating standard to employees : Employees should
be aware, what is expected of them. Performance standard should be
communicated completely and effectively to them. Manager should obtain
feedback from employees in order to ensure that they properly understand
performance requirements.
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8
8/6/2019 Final GTL SIP Report
28/79
3. Evaluating actual performance : Common source of collecting
information about actual performance are- personal observation, written
report, oral report and static report
4. Comparing actual standard: Actual performance achieved should
be compare with the standard in order to know the deviation, if any.
5. Discussing appraisal with employees: Post appraisal
discussion is aimed to improve employees performance and productivity.
Therefore manager has challenging task of presenting an accurate appraisal
to the employees.
6. Taking corrective action: After correcting the actual performance
with standards and discovering that real cause of substandard performance,
discussion with employees, manager can take any of the following courses of
action---
Do nothing.
Remove real cause of variation.
Revise the standards.

Here are some key steps management can take towards achieving effective
performance appraisalone of that can be used to validate the selection process as
well as to make decisions about pay or promotions:
1. Select what performance data to collect
2. Determine who conducts the appraisal
3. Decide on a rating philosophy
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8
8/6/2019 Final GTL SIP Report
30/79
4. Overcome rating deficiencies
5. Create a rating instrument
6. Deliver useful information to employees.
Approaches to Performance Management-
The traditional approach: The one dimensional model
In this model job expectations are defined in terms of what results have to be
achieved. This model doesn't have a long term focus and can't be used for employee
development and career path planning.
A satisfactory performance implies doing a job effectively and efficiently, with a
minimum degree of employee -created disruptions. Employees are performing well
when they are productive. Yet productivity itself implies both concern for
effectiveness and efficiency. Effectiveness refers to goal accomplishment.
Efficiency evaluates the ratio of inputs consumed to outputs achieved.
There are basically three purposes to which performance appraisal can be put. First,
it can be used as a basis for reward allocations. Decisions as to whom get salary
increases, promotions, and other rewards are determined by their performance
evaluation. Second, these appraisals can be used for identifying areas where
development efforts are needed. Management needs to spot those individuals who
have specific skill or knowledge deficiencies.
The performance appraisal is a major tool for identifying these deficiencies. Finally,
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8
8/6/2019 Final GTL SIP Report
31/79
the performance appraisal can be used as a criterion against which selection devices
and development programs are validated.
Tools of Performance Appraisal
There are following tolls of performance appraisal-
(1) Work Study:Work study first of all sought to improve the way each task
was carried out so that the single best way could be define. Very often the next step
in this process was to measure the work content as a standard time for the
completion of the task. The standard time had two uses; first it was used in
production planning and control system to progress and cost work thought
manufacturing process. It was also used in incentives schemes designed to
encouraged individuals and groups of worker to improve their output by linking
time to increase in their earning. In practices, however the outcome of such scheme
tended to be increased earning without a corresponding increase in output.
(2) MBO (Management by Objectives): Although MBO also
recognized the possible motivational effect on people at work of knowing what they
were required to do; it was based on a rational approach to organization, their
structures, their operations and objectives. In essence it was systematic approaches
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8
8/6/2019 Final GTL SIP Report
32/79
to let the people know what was requirement; initially the approach was widely
welcomed as a practical solution to the challenges of performance management.
(3) Critical Path Analysis: This was once seen as the answer to all the
problem of managing large and complex project was often incompatible with the
discipline required of the technique and short cuts, unforeseen problems and delay
in keeping the plans up to date meant that the plan was not an adequate guide the
validity and acceptability of techniques was thus undermined.
(4) Merit Rating: Merit rating sought to motivate people to higher standard of
performance through financial recognition, there is no little or no evidence that it
ever achieved its goal, probably because of the tenuous connections between the
criteria against which people were rated and actual performance in the job.
(5) Quality Circle: These were intended to raise organization performance
through the involvement of employees in the improvement of work process and
product quality. But employees involvement initiatives such as these were often
applied in the alien environment of traditional command and control organizations.
Furthermore many companies failed to realize that the talent of their people could be
fully harness to their glass of quality or performance improvement only if they work
process to match new situation. To often innovative perhaps unconventional ideas
became submerged in formal procedure and process for making.

oriented.
Appraisal should have adequate knowledge of performance of employees.

In order to insure consistency appraisers should be well trained.
Appraisal should be documented.
There should be provision for review of appraisal recorded by an appraiser.
Where appraisal contains adverse comments, these comments along with the

Problems/errors in performance Appraisal
The personal judgment is always subject to personal bias as well as pressure form
certain areas. The appraiser may not able to judge the competence of employees.
Certain errors were as follow---
1. Halo error : Halo error refers to failure to distinguish among different
aspect of performance. Hallo error occur when one positive performance
aspect causes the rater to rate all other aspect of performance positively.
2. Similar to me : In this error occurs when we judge those who are
similar to us more highly than those who are not. This effect is strong when
similarity is based on demographic characteristics such as age or sex. It
result is discriminating decision.
3. Contract error: Contract error occurs when we compare individual
with one another instead of against an objective standard. If the competent
employee receives lower than deserved rating because of his or her
outstanding colleagues.
4. Central tendency :This error occurs when the rater is in doubt about
the subordinates or their inadequate information about them or is giving less
attention. If the rater does not have sufficient time to devote to the rating
process, he may play it safe by giving all employees average
5. Leniency :This error occurs when the appraise assign high rating to all
employees.
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8
8/6/2019 Final GTL SIP Report
36/79
6. Strictness: This error occurs when appraise assign low rate rating to all
employees.
7. Recent Behavior Bias :Some rater evaluates person on the basis of
their performance in recent few weeks; average constant behavior is not
checked.
8. Miscellaneous Biases : Rater may give higher rating because he
thinks that it will look bad if other employees in the other department receive
higher pay increase than his group. Supervisor will trend to rate their
Subordinate average rating.

Performance Appraisal System in GTLLimited
In GTL Limited, Lucknow they have the system of performance appraisal of their
employees. The main objective of this performance appraisal system is to
evaluate the performance, promote their employees and to arrange for their
various training programmes if they require for enhancing their skills in their
respective areas and in contribution enhancement.
GTL uses very constructive performance appraisal process while evaluating its
employees.
Its evaluation is based on quantitative wise and objective wise. Company set
goals to its employee by properly reporting with its employees and then
evaluating them up to what extent it has been achieved and if there is failure in
reaching the target what are the causes or reasons behind it.
Every evaluator has his or her own value system which acts as a standard against
which appraisals are made. Relative to the true or actual performance an individual
exhibits some evaluator mark high and others low. The former is referred to as
positive leniency error and the latter as negative leniency error. When evaluators
are positively lenient in their appraisal, an individual's performance becomes over-
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8
8/6/2019 Final GTL SIP Report
41/79
stated; that is, rated higher than it actually should. Similarly, a negative leniency
error understates performance, giving the individual a lower appraisal.
As such there is no scope of error as far as the GTL Limited is concerned, but
sometimes over estimation of target brings
about a description in the evaluating criteria. Thus, though chances are less, positive
leniency errors have been stated to be committed.
There are two types of employees in GTL
Limited, Lucknow
1st Management Level
2nd Technical Level
GTL Ltd use Appraisal through MBO at Management Level and 360 Degree
Appraisal at Technical Level.
For management level, top management sets organizational goals and they
define there targets and after three weeks they review there performance against
there target and give there feedback.
In GTL Ltd, for technical level GTL uses 360 degree appraisal system because
top management says that in these technique employees finds him/her very
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8
8/6/2019 Final GTL SIP Report

much secure because they says that in this system they evaluated persons who
are working with him/her.
Outcome of Performance Appraisal
As far as GTL Limited is concerned, there are four outcomes
possible:
a. Outstanding - If the performance evaluated by the management turns
out to be outstanding. If the employee performs in such a way as to collect 3
consecutive outstanding performances into his/her credit) he / she get
promoted.
b. Excellent -If the performance evaluated by the management turns out to
be excellent. If the employee performs in such a way as to collect 3
consecutive excellent performances into his/her credit, he/she gets dry
promotion.
c. Good -If the performance evaluated by the management turns out to be
good. The management sends the employee to the training programme to
improve his/her skill to perform in such a manner.
d. Bellow average -If the performance evaluated by the management
turns out to be bellow average. And, if the employee collects 3 below
average to his/her credit, then he/she dismissed.

Conclusion.
By this study I come to knew that my Hypothesis that All employees are
satisfied with current Performance appraisal System was not absolutely right
because only 55% employees were satisfied .There were approx.45% employees
who were not satisfied with the present Performance Appraisal System. They
want some changes to it.
Performance Appraisal is the definite guide for todays competitive businesses
enterprise. It is yardstick that would measure the contribution of an organization.
Improved measurement of human resources plays a vital role in linking human
resource initiative to business strategies for significantly increasing the values.
Values and belief that are present in Performance Appraisal System/It should be
communicated right from day on through books, handouts. Time should be spent on
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8
8/6/2019 Final GTL SIP Report
64/79
future aspect rather than past by preparing carefully selected defined recorded
targets.
Targets should be challenging as well as achievable goals, which are beyond the
scope of employees should be selected. Goals, which are mess with group goals and
organizational goals, should be selected. Employees should be in position to
influence the outcomes.
Performance Appraisal is not mere a sharpening of pencil, filling of form etc. it is
time to develop Performance Appraisal Program and scrap the irritating annual
appraisal, irrational rating and irrational forms. Performance appraisal will create a
Competitive advantage and evolve the very nature of the game itself.
The analysis and interpretation of data on study of performance appraisal and its
effectiveness in an organization led to the following conclusions:
The promotion rules though defined need to be communicated to every
employee before Appraisal process is done and also justifies the promotion as a
result of the appraisal. That the promotion policy followed differs at different
position and category. Uniformity has to be there in the implementation of
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8
8/6/2019 Final GTL SIP Report
65/79
promotion policy at all levels.
The process of performance appraisal followed in GTL Limited at the
supervisory and above level is to say not well but of satisfactory level.
The appraisal outcome has to be used frequently for the purpose of reward on
performing well together with the feedback on the performance. Also when
performance goes down employee has to be given feedback and motivated to do
better.
The organization at present doesn't led career planning and career succession
plans.
In GTL Limited feedback is being provided to the employee though on a few
occasion.
Performance appraisal in GTL Limited is done on an annual basis.
More emphasis on training and job rotation as remedial measures.
The mechanism of counseling pre-performance and post performance is not in
practice at the organization in strict term. During the course of study suggestion
came from the employee side for the need of counseling.

Recommendation &
Feedback
There are following recommendation for Performance
Appraisal
It is recommended that periodicity of the assessment should be twice in a
year. Once it can be in the month of March for wages and salary purpose and
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8
8/6/2019 Final GTL SIP Report
67/79
other can be in the month of October/November for Training and
development purpose.
It is recommended that performance appraisal from contain to be answer
bout the various jobs. The appraise have to perform.
Effective performance appraisal system developed upon how well the data is
analysis and interpretive so that it can used for various purpose, e.g.
development as well as personnel management system.
Every employee may not have all capacity that requires performing each and
every function associated with role. In fact every employee need training to
improve his/her performance or to gain knowledge to get competitive
advantage
Therefore performance appraisal system should be able to indicate the capacity of
each employee that they have or lacks in performing their role.
Time-to-time training and development program is must in order to develop
employees, their skills and knowledge.
In fact over development of employee so that they feel, they not only giving their
efforts to the company but also company is giving something to them as they are
real assets of the company.

Performance appraisal system without feedback is like ad body without should and
human eyes without vision. Feedback is must. If the superior does not give feedback
to his subordinate, he cannot guide himself. Since feedback system is lacking in
GTL which is very important as such it is recommended that feedback employee
will never came to know in which area he needs to improve and work hard, what are
the/drawbacks in his performance?
Feedback is very necessary not only from the point of view of improving he
performance but also for mutual understanding and relationship of superior and
subordinate and also to motivate appraise.
Feedback should given such a way that appraise should not feel shame/disregarded.
Discuss his weak ness with him in front of everyone. So that he will be motivate and
other who sees will also influence and try to hard work.
If there is no feedback in Performance Appraisal System then it will create
confusion among superior and subordinate.
Subordinate would not know what his superior thinks of him. This will lead to
communication gap and further lead to conflicts.
In order to avoid such type to critical situation and to develop team sprit, to motivate
employees, feedback is necessary tool in Performance Appraisal System. Giving and
receiving feedback is a skill, as such people who will be involved in giving feedback
should be given proper training.

Some important points on giving feedback;
Be concrete:-Discuss specific behavior and example to illustrate and
support the points being made.
Be respectful:- Try to communicate acceptance
Identify both positive and negative points of performance.
Be constructive: - Offer suggestion as how the situation might
have been tackled differently and how problem might be tackled in future.
Do not try to make many critical points.
Make sure that your judgment are identified as such and not presented as
fact.
Findings
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8

70/79
Training the Appraise: It is proposed that appraiser be trained for clear
understanding of the system and its objective and also counseled to be honest, fair,
just, unbiased in appraising the appraise.
Factors/traits of evaluation: It is proposed that appraise evaluated on above
factors/traits be given suitable remark or justification for being given different
quantitative grade.
Greater clarity has to be has to there in terms of job responsibility. This is
possible when the appraisal is done on the basis of the description.
In the organization, performance appraisal is done on an annual basis which
should be done Quarterly to make it more effective.
Consistency is demanded in the promotional policy. It should not change
every year.
Monetary difference between two grades should not be large, it should be
motivating in nature.
Performance appraisal system should be made more transparent and
rationale.
Performance feedback: The performance feedback sessions should be
improved which would results in increasing employee motivation to improve
performance. The following could be incorporated.
Pin point the problem behavior and make sure the employee is aware of it
Make sure the employee understands the consequences of the problem
behavior. Get employee's commitment to change and make sure he cares about the
I I M T P r o f e s s i o n a l C o l l e g e , M e e r u tPage 8
8/6/2019 Final GTL SIP Report
71/79
change
Assistance should be provided to improve poor performance. Make a
realistic plan appropriate to the behavior and set a time frame for improvement.
To make sure to review performance time to time
The other change which has to be incorporated at the supervisor and the
level above are:
These should be listing down of task undertaken during the last one year
and the result achieved.
In some areas of performance there should be self appraisal and more and
more counseling so that employee improves upon weak area and understands what
is expected of him/her at the organization level.
Based on the above an open appraisal system is suggested.
In an open appraisal the employee would come together to set the targets, to
understand the mutual expectations and support to be provided by the Appraiser to
the employee for achieving mutually accepted goals/targets. Through this process
of setting targets the interpersonal relationship between the appraiser and the
employee would improve.
The open appraisal system reduces the whims and fancies of the appraiser. It
promotes result-orientation as it is based on performance rather than on personality
