Recommended: Performance Appraisal

The employees of CanGo (with the occasional exception of Nick) are hard working individuals that place great pride in their work. Unfortunately, several poor decisions on management’s part have seriously affected these staff members. In our observations, we have noticed staff members being handed projects and assignments from managers without receiving anything in the form of goals, deadlines, expectations, and resources. This has resulted in employees juggling a variety of different assignments simultaneously. The current performance appraisal system has also left some employees (Nick) scared to death of the process. Other employees displayed incredulousness after Nick received a solid performance review from Warren. Performance appraisals

    The performance assessment and appraisal forms are crucial within the performance management system (Aguinis, 2014). However, the appraisal form within the case study provided is designed for the supervisor’s use thus missing one vital factor throughout the entire process, employee participation. Thus, questioning the validity and reliability of the process. This is especially concerning as the bottom 10 per cent of employees are being fired and the top 20 per cent are being rewarded with $5,000.00 based on what their supervisor records on the form without consultation with employees.

  • GTMO Research Paper

    789 Words  | 2 Pages

    The “detention camp” known as GTMO is simply nothing short of a manifestation of hysteria and internalized islamophobia. The cause of the creation of GTMO was obviously the 9/11 attacks. However, authority largely created and fueled this hysteria, indoctrinating the American people, teaching them to hold to anti-mohammedanism. 9/11 has inspired a modern day witch hunt, with innocent Muslims as the accused, and unfortunately equating them to characters of the crucible, that had the misfortune of crossing anyone of the girls in Abigail’s group. It is through modern examples like these, and those of decades ago, such as the witch trials, that shows one that authority feeds and causes hysteria.

  • Advantages And Disadvantages Of Employee Performance

    912 Words  | 2 Pages

    One of the many types of performance measurement is performance appraisal. Performance appraisal is the examination of an employees work performance and the comparing of it with predetermined standards. This is then usually followed up by feedback to the employee. This form of performance measurement is quite efficient, as it motivates employees to perform at a higher level and improve their future performances. There are several different forms of performance appraisal, such as ratings scales and 360-degree feedback, which both include feedback to the employee as well as evaluations of the employee’s performance. Although this is one of the major ways to measure employee performance, it is not the only way. Some organisations focus almost solely on performance appraisal instead of all the different types of performance measurement. This leaves the measurement of an employee’s performance very limited and insufficient. This strong focus on performance appraisal is one of the few key disadvantages of performance measurement in organisations.
