An Effective Performance Appraisal

INTRODUCTION

Performance Appraisal is a central pillar for an effective organizational Performance Management.

The core of a Performance Appraisal conversation is an essential communication link between two people with a common purpose in discussing organizational priorities, current performance on the job using meaningful and relevant examples, setting  future performance goals,  providing  effective feedback and reaching an agreement on future action plans.

A well planned, organized and an effective appraisal can motivate an employee to contribute more towards a successful career path which inspires loyalty and stability to the employee ultimately resulting in an overall positive outcome to the organization.

An effective appraisal focuses on:

  • Performance and not personalities.
  • Meaningful, evident and concrete examples rather than subjective emotions and feelings
  • An agreement on future development plan and coaching to assist the employee in improving performance and productivity.

Overall, an effective performance appraisal can lead to high performance and increased productivity. Where an employee’s performance does not improve, the performance appraisal process can also be followed up with a Performance Improvement Plan.
